30th Jul 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Nottingham maiden winner who outran his 100-1 odds to finish fourth in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) having been bang there throughout before wilting in the closing stages; a fast colt who will have no trouble going the early pace and should be very competitive. |

4th 2 (2) |
19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Midfield on Beverley debut (5f, good to firm) but stepped up from that when winning a Nottingham maiden (5f, good) 18 days ago (runner-up filled same position at Chester last weekend); open to further progress but that form leaves him with plenty to find at this level; stable won this in 2011. |

1st Jun 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 8y Class 5 |

Slowly away from outside stall and raced too freely on debut at Beverley (5f, good to firm) but showed significant ability before fading into sixth; ought to have learned from that experience and can improve. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Clearly best effort when winning C&D Listed event (good ground) in May, coming from well off strong pace; well beaten in the big 5f 3yo handicap at Royal Ascot three weeks ago; needs another personal best, and by some way. |
14/1 |
|
20th 1 (19) |
19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Finished second in the Windsor Castle over C&D at this meeting 12 months ago before third-place finishes in three more Group/Listed races; returned from eight months off to win a 5f Listed event at York five weeks ago, missing the break but avoiding the fierce early pace as a result and sweeping through late on; has a touch of class and stable sent out the topweight to finish second in this race 12 months ago. |

1st 4 (7) |
14th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
All starts at 5f on good or good to firm; no wins since his debut success at Musselburgh 13 months ago but he ran a belter when second of 20 in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot; again very useful form when beaten around 2l by Revival Power in Listed C&D event in August and Doncaster Group 2 three weeks later; solid each-way claims on this reappearance. |

17th May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y |
8st 13lb |
Amassed an impressive CV in her opening runs last season; won her AW maiden before landing a 5f Curragh Listed contest, and a Naas Group 3; failed to justify 8-15 odds in a Curragh Group 2 before resuming progress with a Molecomb Stakes victory at Goodwood; form tapered off in her final two Group runs; big player on ratings but lacks a run. |
5/1 |

9 (9) |
12th Sep 2025 Good 0m 5f 3y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Unraced on softer than good; down the field in the Nunthorpe when taking on her elders last time; very productive (11121) otherwise and beat some of today's rivals in the Molecomb at Goodwood; leading form claims back against own age group. |
3/1 |

16 (4) |
22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 2lb |
High-class sprinting juvenile whose sole defeat in five starts came over 6f in June; put the record straight with another improved show to win a 5f Group 3 at Goodwood under a penalty since; that wasn't the strongest of races, her main victims having marks in the 90s, but this easy track looks sure to suit her style and with the serious weight concession from her elders she has obvious claims; has been supplemented. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 10lb |
Capped a productive 2yo campaign with a close second to Revival Power in Listed event over C&D (good to firm), but he was well beaten on his reappearance and he's a long way down the pecking order on ratings. |
12/1 |
|
7th 3 (4) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Unraced on ground softer than good; closely matched with stablemate Words Of Truth on adjusted ratings; form last year featured two wins early doors and two good efforts in Listed grade, namely head second over C&D and at the York Ebor festival; major contender on reappearance. |

14th Jul 2026 Standard 0m 6f 20y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Managed only fifth of eight at Kempton last month and is now 0-6 for current stable; continues to slip down the weights but his tendency to race too freey remains a concern; swaps cheekpieces for first-time blinkers. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (9) |
10th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Two wins for David O'Meara as a 2yo and also ran a cracker over C&D last September (Group 3); the handicapper has been in command this year but he returns to AW and drops back to a Class 4; not solid but a revival isn't out of the question. |
12/1 |
|
5th 1 (6) |
25th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Two wins at about 5f (good to firm and good) as 2yo for previous yard; no progress for this one in 2026, finishing in mid-division at Newmarket (first-time cheekpieces, retained) in April; gelded since; likely needs more weight off his back kept to 6f. |

29th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Won C&D novice then close up in a Group 3 at Glorious Goodwood (5f) last July before losing some momentum; gelded since and was never nearer than at the line on his Newmarket comeback (6f, good to firm) in May; open to improvement and no surprise to see him involved. |
8/1 |
|
5th 4 (9) |
2nd May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
6f novice win at Windsor last July before appearing to improve when fourth in the Group 3 Molecomb at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good; form hasn't worked out at all); struggled thereafter and he makes his seasonal/handicap debut off a tough mark; has been gelded since last seen. |
14/1 |

6th 7 (14) |
11th Oct 2025 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
6f novice winner who was beaten only about 2l when fourth of eight in the Group 3 Molecomb at Goodwood (5f, good) in July, and a case can be made on that form; however, lesser runs have followed in Listed and Group 2 races (5f/6f, good to firm/good to soft) and he needs to raise his game. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Won 5f novice events at Carlisle and Newcastle this summer before a fine third in the Super Sprint at Newbury (5f, good); highly tried since and today's return to 5f should be in his favour; not ruled out now making his nursery debut. |
5/1 |

6 (4) |
20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Ran well in the Super Sprint at Newbury during his spell over 5f; not disgraced when favourite for 6f sales race at Newmarket (good to firm) most recently, albeit failed to improve for the new trip. |
16/1 |

1 (20) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Found himself isolated from the main action when disappointing in a Group 3 at Goodwood; had been nicely progressive and was conceding weight to the front two (including Windsor Castle winner Havana Hurricane) when third in the Super Sprint at Newbury despite losing his focus and wandering when hitting the front; strong chance, provided he gets home over 6f (kept to 5f thus far). |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Listed winner as a 2yo (6f, good to firm); running creditably in defeat this year and has the second highest BHA rating in the field but likely vulnerable to anything progressive. |
8/1 |
|
6th 6 (5) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 10y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Useful filly who ran respectably against her elders in the Temple Stakes at Haydock most recently and is one of the main players on ratings back down in grade; capable of taking a serious hand but rather lacks room for progress and is 0-10 since Listed win last June. |
10/1 |
|
6th 13 (2) |
23rd May 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
8st 9lb |
2yo Listed winner at Newmarket last June and has run well when fourth in Group 3/Listed races on her two starts this spring, but she would be a shock winner today. |
