28th Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Unbeaten with cheekpieces added for his last six starts, including this race last year (outbattled an in-form Illinois), the St Leger at Doncaster (by a neck from Rahiebb) that September and last month's 2m4f Gold Cup at Royal Ascot; had proven fitness on his side against the reappearing Trawlerman when inching ahead close home in their magnificent duel for the Gold Cup, but his stayers' crown is unlikely to be relinquished without a mighty effort whatever the circumstances. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Plenty went wrong for him in the Queen's Vase here one year ago (still a close fifth) but unbeaten with cheekpieces added for his five starts since; that includes the St Leger at Doncaster (by a neck from Rahiebb) in September and two 1m6f events this spring (familiar route to this race for his stable) but also, and perhaps most tellingly, the 2m Goodwood Cup last July in which he asserted late on from last year's Gold Cup second; high class and there's plenty in those 1m6f/2m performances which suggests he will be a thorough stayer. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 6f 0y |
9st 10lb |
Won four of his five races at three; improved with cheekpieces after Queen's Vase fifth, won a 1m5f Group 3 at Newmarket by almost 9l and mastering older stablemate Illinois in the Goodwood Cup (2m, good); dug deep to hold off Rahiebb on soft ground in the St Leger; readily coped with Dallas Star at Navan last month and now continues on the Kyprios route to the Gold Cup. |

1st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
Contested three Group races last summer; it's been 1m4f handicaps (good to firm) this season, registering his highest rating when fourth of eight at Newmarket in May but two disappointing shows at Ascot have followed; blinkered latest; stays at least 1m5f (unraced over this far) and he's 6lb lower than at Newmarket, but some caution is advised at present. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
10st 2lb |
Contested three Group races last summer; 1m4f handicaps (good to firm) this season, registering his highest rating when fourth of eight at Newmarket in May but backpedalling from over 3f out when just 9-1 at Royal Ascot; needs to bounce back in first-time headgear but his sights are lowered. |
9/2 |

14th 7 (18) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Ran creditably last summer in the Derby and two 1m5f Group 3s, while coming up well short; absent 259 days before his fourth of eight on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm; Hopewell Rock third) seven weeks ago, which was actually his best form and the first two also dominated a 1m6f handicap here on Tuesday, but he needs to build on that. |

16th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Ran surprisingly well to finish so close in last year's Queen's Vase over C&D but perhaps flattered by that given subsequent defeats (Group 3 and a strong handicap); gelded prior to tailing off on his hurdling debut at Cheltenham in November and absent since; the return of cheekpieces is no bad thing. |

7th 14 (14) |
2nd Aug 2025 Soft 1m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Wore cheekpieces on last three outings, all on good to firm; won a 1m4f Thirsk handicap on first occasion and he's 23lb higher today thanks mostly to his staying-on sixth in the 1m6f Group 2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot; failed to confirm that improvement in 1m5f Newmarket Group 3 on latest start, admittedly not disgraced but that makes others look a bit more solid today. |

3rd 2 (1) |
10th Jul 2025 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Wore cheekpieces the last twice, winning a Thirsk handicap (1m4f) then appearing to improve markedly with staying-on sixth in the 1m6f Queen's Vase when upped further in trip; latter effort ties him in with a few of today's rivals; may have more to offer in the retained headgear. |

10th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 0y |
9st 12lb |
One of two for yard; highly tried to no avail on turf after 1m maiden debut win here in March; 100-rated 3yo returns to the AW for handicap debut and he is the choice of David Egan; hard to assess if he's well treated but has to be respected down in class. |
4/1 |

4th 5 (5) |
10th Jul 2025 Good 1m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Campaigned in Listed/Group races, with rather mixed results, since debut win; seemed to run well on bare figures in the Queen's Vase most recently but finished behind three of today's opponents and needs improvement to double his tally. |
14/1 |

7th 12 (6) |
18th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 6f 34y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Tried 1m4f at Leopardstown (good; unraced on firmer) 13 days ago, keeping on into fourth behind Friday's King Edward VII hope Zahrann; that was up with his best form but it was also the third time he's been safely held in a Listed race (after AW win on debut); others have more pressing claims. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 5f 188y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Seemed to be going places when he won a Group 3 at Newbury (1m5f, good to firm) last August, followed by a respectable sixth on soft ground in the St Leger, but he's been disappointing this term; headgear goes on. |
25/1 |
|
4th 2 (3) |
3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Both wins have been at Newbury, in a maiden over 1m3f last April and a Group 3 over 1m5f (good to firm) last August; respectable sixth in the St Leger in September but he's been below that level in all four starts since, including when beating only Duke Of Oxford home over this C&D in May; drops back to 2m having contested the Gold Cup two weeks ago. |
5/1 |
|
10th 8 (6) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 3f 210y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Second to Carmers in bunched finish to 1m6f Queen's Vase here last year and impressive in Group 3 at Newbury (1m5f, again good to firm) last August; he's been put firmly in his place on all four outings since, however, beaten just over 4l behind Scandinavia and Rahiebb in the St Leger at Doncaster on first occasion, which was creditable, but singularly underwhelming this season in Yorkshire Cup and 2m Sandown Group 3; needs a huge turnaround. |
