8th Oct 2025 Soft 1m 2f 50y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
A 16-1 winner on nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); back to form upped to 1m on last two starts, with an excellent second at Ripon (1m, good; probably acts on soft) on latest; by a sprinter out of 1m6f winner; others perhaps are a little less exposed. |

27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
A 16-1 winner on nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); back to that form when a close third at Sandown, finishing just behind Assaranca (1m, soft); down another 2lb so hard to dismiss. |

12th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Sprung a 16-1 surprise on his nursery debut at Leicester in July (7f, good to firm); two lesser efforts have followed but he faced a stiff task back at 6f at York's Ebor meeting three weeks ago; some encouragement for 1m on dam's side of pedigree but he's by a sprinter and it remains to be seen if he'll see it out, especially were the ground to deteriorate markedly. |

1st Sep 2025 Good 0m 6f 195y Class 4 |
9st 5lb |
Made his breakthrough (sixth attempt) when coming from rear to justify support in a nursery at Epsom (7f, good) last month; up 6lb but that was a clearcut success and he's open to more progress; shortlisted. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Saw out 7f well when runner-up on handicap debut at Leicester (good to firm; Sweet Lord fourth, Booziebrunch fifth); lost all chance at the start in a valuable Glorious Goodwood nursery a fortnight ago; player back down in grade. |

Saw out the 7f well when runner-up on nursery debut at Leicester (7f, good to firm) but coming up short in that Class 5 makes him opposable at this loftier level. |

23rd Sep 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 10lb |
Opened his account when winning at Epsom (7f, good to firm) in July and he's posted two respectable efforts since, including when racing alone at Leicester (6f, good to soft) two weeks ago; below his best on his only previous try on the AW. |

Belatedly opened his account at Epsom (7f) in July and not disgraced with fifth of nine in another 7f handicap there 25 days ago; not out of things eased 1lb. |

15th Aug 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Slow learner but gradual improvement in three qualifying runs between 5f and 7f; gelded and didn't carry that progress over to his first nursery when fourth of seven at Leicester (7f, good to firm; Gascony second, Booziebrunch fifth) one month ago; still didn't look the finished article that day and will likely cop on at some point; gets first-time tongue-tie and blinkers. |

17th Jul 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 1lb |
Looks a slow learner but gradual improvement in three qualifying runs between 5f and 7f, still green when seventh of 12 at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last time; has been gelded and is the type to do much better in handicaps; interesting. |
9/1 |

10th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Down the field in races over 5f and 7f, beaten about 6l both times; plenty to find on bare figures and looks likely to be more interesting when nurseries commence. |

1st Sep 2026 Standard 1m 1f 104y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Most consistent this year having made the frame on all seven starts, including a win at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in June off 5lb lower; looks sure to be thereabouts. |
11/4 |

4th 5 (8) |
13th Aug 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Got back on the scoresheet with a runaway win over two rivals at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in June; held in another small-field event at Epsom last time but that was a solid front-running effort behind an improver; still unexposed at this trip and he should be in the mix again back on AW. |
6/1 |

2nd 5 (2) |
16th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 17y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Reliable 3yo whose two wins (from 13 races) were in very small fields, latterly when making all at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago; that was a runaway win and the first time he's made the running, but he's 5lb higher today in what looks a more competitive race. |

19th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Maiden after 15 starts but has been placed several times; ran well enough behind Cashel Blue over C&D last time but seemed to find this test a bit sharp; has to do more. |

29th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |

Maiden was runner-up three times in a row at Dundalk during the winter; not as good in recent months; midfield in 6f Curragh handicap on latest but this is an ease in grade; Colin Keane takes over; high draw not ideal. |

17th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Application of headgear yielded an upturn in fortunes but she was still springing a surprise when winning the 20-runner £100,000 Tattersalls Somerville Auction at Newmarket (6f; 33-1) in August; failed to stay 7f in Sweden (fourth) latest; current mark looks perfectly fair if taking to AW. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
0-5; ran well to be second in a Ripon nursery (6f; first-time cheekpieces) but that would suggest her current mark is about right and therefore has something to find with the pick of these; now blinkered. |
20/1 |
|
3 (7) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Didn't look to see out a stiff 7f from the front on her nursery debut 12 days ago; has the rail draw if she gets away again in first-time cheekpieces but is starting to look exposed now. |
