2nd May 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Has been described as a challenge by connections but he's a talented one and the drop to 5f suited when beating a smart rival (later runner-up at the Breeders' Cup) in a Group 3 over C&D (good; won a novice on good to firm) in October; nothing special on his recent return here but he was eased when his winning chance had gone and the return to 5f can suit; much respected. |

16th Apr 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 1lb |
Gelded prior to prevailing narrowly in the Cornwallis (5f, good; Group 3) on final 2yo start, taking record on the Newmarket tracks to 3-3; effective over 6f and looks open to further improvement; carries 3lb penalty; respected kept to this venue in first attempt against his elders. |

10th Oct 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Gelded since flopping in AW Group 3 last time; recorded novice wins on the July course (6f) in last two turf attempts, leaving the impression he'll cope with this drop in trip; may do better still. |

20th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Best efforts last year came from the front but she had no chance of leading on her comeback behind Bintola four weeks ago thanks to a slow start; should do better then, but she was a big price at Windsor and is fully exposed now. |
33/1 |

13th 6 (11) |
23rd May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Made all in Yarmouth nursery (6f, good; handicap debut) in October but raced freely before weakening over 7f nine days later; that's easily forgiven and she's not ruled out on this return. |

|
3 (9) |
22nd Oct 2025 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Made all in Yarmouth nursery (6f, good) last week, opening her account; has to overcome a 6lb penalty and possibly isn't crying out for the return to 7f (second attempt). |

14th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 213y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Still a maiden after 12 runs and his tendency to race too freely remains a worry but he returned to turf with a respectable fourth at Goodwood (7f, good to soft; wore cheekpieces) last week and this race is easier. |
4/1 |

4th 4 (8) |
5th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Placed a few times, though only four ran when second at Wolverhampton last time (7f) and that form is unconvincing; others preferred. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 9lb |
Won at Nottingham (8.3f, good) in May before respectable third of seven at Lingfield (1m1f, soft); hampered at the start when she flopped here (1m, good to firm) a fortnight and she's much better than that, but she needs to bounce back with a career best if she's to come out on top. |
20/1 |

6th 6 (8) |
26th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
All races at up to 7f until finishing close up over 1m on the Rowley course in May, then held off an in-form rival at Nottingham (also on good ground); seemed to find 1m1f on soft a shade too much at Lingfield since but her claims are more solid than most now back at 1m. |
9/2 |

3rd 3 (1) |
6th Jun 2026 Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Came good at the 12th time of asking when seeing off six rivals at Nottingham (extended 1m, good) last Sunday; not obviously well treated under a 6lb penalty. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 2lb |
Perhaps the return to turf will prove the answer but he hasn't shone in two runs in cheekpieces this year, having been gelded, and is regressive; others have stronger claims. |
9/2 |

6th 7 (5) |
18th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 12y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Maiden; progress stalled on AW but 7f was too far for him in March and he can't be ruled out on his most recent turf run, when finishing strongly to be second of nine at Yarmouth (6f, good) in October; possibilities. |

23rd Oct 2025 Soft 0m 6f 18y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Has shown ability when fifth in 5f maidens at Beverley on his last two starts (good to firm/soft); doesn't appear straightforward and the return to 6f isn't a guaranteed plus (he's from a family of 5f sprinters) on nursery debut, but the first-time tongue-tie/blinkers could help; not discounted. |
12/1 |

17th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed some ability dropped to 5f on his second start when fifth of eight over C&D (good to firm) last month; was only beaten around 3l but he needs more improvement on this return to slow ground. |
10/1 |
|
2 (8) |
13th Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
25-1 and beaten around 11l when last of six on his debut at Newmarket (6f, good to soft) 12 days ago; speedy pedigree and he can likely do better on this drop down in trip. |
10/1 |
