4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Ballydoyle colt who went close in a strong maiden on debut and is 4-4 since, most recently beating stablemate Hawk Mountain by just under 1l in the Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly (10.5f); impressive at Chester the time before and that Listed form has worked out well; top on the figures, still improving to boot and represents a trainer who has landed this prize nine times, including with 3yos (among them a French Derby winner) in four of the last five years; duly much respected. |

7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Group 1 entry at 1m, 1m2f and 1m4f; by Wootton Bassett out of unplaced sister to 1m4f/1m6f Group 1 winner Wonderful Tonight; short-headed at Newmarket before making all when odds-in in both a Galway maiden (7f, yielding) last July and five-runner Group 2 at the Curragh (7f, good) last August; both wins came with authority and the pedigree is encouraging for 1m2f; his enthusiasm for getting on with it last year raises more of a question but the 1m2f French Derby has been mentioned by his trainer as an objective. |

Wootton Bassett colt cost 400,000euros as a yearling; narrowly denied in decent Newmarket maiden (winner finished third in Group 3 Acomb Stakes during the week) on last month's debut before landing long odds later in month over this trip at Galway, making all; type to keep improving and Ballydoyle's sole runner sets the standard here. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y |
9st 6lb |
Glimpses of ability in all four maiden runs, both Curragh efforts this term when staying on late over 6f; return to 7f to suit and potential improver entering handicaps. |
7/1 |

7th 4 (11) |
3rd Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 63y |
9st 8lb |
Ran twice at two; not disgraced at 100-1 when ninth of 15 over 7f at this venue; too keen at Galway when fourth of eight behind Constitution River; looked a possible future winner when keeping fourth in a 16-runner 6f maiden here in March on seasonal/ stable debut. |

9st 7lb |
Well-bred Night Of Thunder colt ran an okay race at 100-1 at the Curragh in July when ninth of 15 (7f, good); much too keen at Galway when last seen (7f, yielding); makes stable debut now sporting a hood; worth a market check. |

By a top sire; ran a promising race on debut at Galway over this trip on soft ground; should have improved enough from that to be more competitive today. |

28th Jul 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |

Wootton Bassett colt cost 110,000gns as a yearling; second foal; dam French 1m/1m1f winner (inc 2yo/Group 3; RPR 107), half-sister to 6f 2yo Listed winner Sivoliere, out of 1m Listed winner, is granddaughter of Coronation Stakes winner Sophisticat; seventh in a Naas barrier trial in May; probably best watched. |

Encouraging stable debut when third of seven over 1m here in November; backwards step at Southwell one month later; steps up in trip with improvement essential. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 195y |

Cheaply bought; has offered little in 7f maidens, although was set a stiff task behind subsequent Group 2 winner Constitution River at Galway in July; blinkers on for handicap debut; market may reveal expectations. |

8th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Easy winner off a 9lb lower mark on handicap debut at Ripon in May (1m, good); creditable third at Doncaster next time (1m, good to soft) but connections blamed the faster ground when well below his best last time at Pontefract (1m, good); today's sharp 7f on fast ground unlikely to suit. |
11/2 |
|
5th 6 (2) |
21st Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 6y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Ex-Dermot Weld; 8-11 for his handicap debut in seven-runner race at Ripon (1m, good) last month and won easily from the front; 8lb higher when respectable third of 14 at Doncaster (1m, good to soft) eight days later, having chased the leaders, and needs to resume improvement with another 2lb rise today; he's had just five races, so it may be possible. |
13/8 |

3rd 1 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 213y Class 6 |
9st 12lb |
Needed the experience in two runs for Dermot Weld last summer before changing hands for 20,000euros; started odds-on for his handicap debut eight days ago, when winning easily from the front, and holds obvious claims despite an 8lb rise. |

18th Oct 2025 Yielding 0m 7f 30y |
9st 5lb |
Starspangledbanner colt finished runner-up on first two starts in maidens at Galway and Gowran before emphatic winner of similar Curragh contest last month, appreciating softer ground; type to continue improving and could play a role here. |

7 (8) |
28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Bumped into subsequent Futurity Stakes winner Constitution River on debut at Galway and might have met another decent sort at Gowran since; needs to take a step forward to win but should be involved again. |
3/1 |

2nd 10 (3) |
2nd Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y |
9st 5lb |
A E130,000 yearling; no match for the front-running Constitution River on debut at Galway; however, finished well clear of the third (another wide gap to the fourth) and the form was franked by the winner in landing the Group 2 Futurity Stakes at the Curragh; tongue-tie fitted now. |

10st 0lb |
Narrowly denied on nursery debut at the Curragh last September (7f, yld-sft); again ran well when a close-up fourth at Dundalk in October; flopped on heavy ground on reappearance; struggled again on good ground at Roscommon; questions to answer. |

Narrowly denied on handicap debut at the Curragh last September (7f, yld-sft); again ran well when a 1l fourth at Dundalk in October; floundered on heavy ground on seasonal return at Cork; better expected now. |

Beaten a neck by Invincible Will on handicap debut at the Curragh (7f, yld-sft) in September and 3lb better off with that rival here; raised 4lb and finished a 1l fourth of 13 on final run of 2025 at Dundalk (7f); yard in flying form and dangerous to discount. |

1st Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 10lb |
Won a turf claimer in Ireland and landed two AW handicaps (1m/7f) for current connections at the start of 2026; has found life harder since but in some good 3yo only races and latest fifth of ten at Sandown (7f, good) in this headgear combination was creditable; respected taking on his elders. |

Won a turf claimer in Ireland and has added two AW handicaps (1m/7f) for current connections; however, has failed to beat a rival in his last three races and a tongue-tie joins his regular hood; risky. |

Turf winner (claimer) in Ireland but has shown better RPRs on AW for new stable; failed to transfer the form back to this sphere latest start, finishing last of six at Musselburgh; others preferred. |
