28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Closely related to Derby/Irish Derby winner Lambourn; Galway maiden winner; graduated to Pattern company with two solid displays, third to the excellent Bow Echo in the Royal Lodge, in front of Benvenuto Cellini when second in the Futurity at Doncaster (1m, heavy); tame effort when fourth behind Raaheeb on reappearance at Sandown; better when a front-running second in the Dante; dropped away tamely after making the running in the Derby; cheekpieces are left off now. |

12th 1 (11) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Closely related to 2025 Derby winner Lambourn; carries his head high but ended last season with a close, battling second in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster (1m, heavy) and front-running second in the Dante at York (10.2f, good) last month was of a similar order, albeit no match for Item in the final 1f; a disappointing, sluggish display on reappearance was his only start with tongue tied; likely to stay 1m4f, with a possible place role but it's unlikely to be more unless the new cheekpieces have a major positive effect. |

2nd 1 (7) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Closely related to 2025 Derby winner Lambourn; carries head high but progressed with every start last season and ended it with a close, battling second to one of his stablemates in the Group 1 Futurity at Doncaster (1m, heavy); consequently 4-6 for Group 3 Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good) three weeks ago but sluggish leaving the stalls and for most of the race before mustering something to finish fourth of seven; perhaps a first-time tongue-tie that day backfired, and he now goes without; the form pick if he bounces back. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
8st 11lb |
11-8 favourite in cheekpieces when he won a maiden at Gowran Park (1m, soft) and conditions event at Naas (10.4f, good; unraced on firmer) on his last two starts; made all and put 4.5l between himself and his rivals over the last 2f on the latest outing; revised mark could still be favourable, including as he's not fully exposed at this trip. |

1st 4 (4) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 84y |
9st 4lb |
Consistent in defeat over 7f/1m before narrowly getting the better of a debuting stablemate over 1m at Gowran, finding plenty off the bridle for McDonogh who said post-race that the gelding might like 10 furlongs. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Maiden success was on heavy going and Group 3 Leopardstown win last October was on good-to-yielding; same going description when landing Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown, with James J Braddock back in fifth; outpaced on better ground when third in the Dante, 1 3/4l behind runner-up Action; rose to the occasion when prominently ridden in the Derby, with soft ground evidently in his favour; different conditions now, but his established stamina is a significant positive. |

1st 8 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Maiden success was on heavy going; Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown (1m2f, good to yielding) on April reappearance made it three wins in a row and his Dante third at York (10.2f, good) next time was at least as good on form; while lacking anything like the same dash as winner Item at York, and also unable to get to grips with stablemate Action, he did plug on as if 1m4f could help; it clearly needs to. |
16/1 |
|
3rd 3 (6) |
14th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won a heavy-ground maiden on third 2yo start and led on the post in Group 3 at Leopardstown (1m1f, yielding) in October; 11-1 with three of his stablemates among those at shorter odds when he reappeared in nine-runner Group 3 Ballysax at Leopardstown (1m2f, good to yielding) last month but it was him who asserted in the final 1f to win by half a length; will stay further but looks firmly in the mix. |

Last of eight on debut at Leopardstown; big price when around 8l fourth of nine over C&D at the festival; likely to find a few too good. |

10th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 192y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
New Bay colt who has shown fair form across his three starts (trained first two by Jessica Harrington); went from the front and faded late as if his recent yard debut after nine months off was just needed; blinkers are added for handicap debut. |

5th 11 (13) |
18th Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |

New Bay colt; shaped with promise on both runs for Jessica Harrington last autumn, still looking green when fourth of 13 in 7f Listowel maiden on latter occasion; more to come for his new yard. |

30th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 63y |
9st 10lb |
Left previous modest form behind to land a 1m4f (yielding) handicap here on latest start in May; the step up in trip was offered as the reason for the improvement in form, so the drop back in distance here may not be ideal; raised 6lb and quicker ground a worry too in this deeper race. |

18th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 17y |
9st 12lb |
Ran respectably in Madrid Handicap over 7f on return, weakened over 1m next time but perhaps that came too soon; up in trip and down in grade now, and gets back onto better ground. |

4th Apr 2026 Soft 1m 0f 0y |

Modest efforts in 1m maidens last year; gelded and returned with a midfield finish on handicap bow at Naas in the Madrid (7f, soft) from 4lb out of the handicap; shaped as though that was needed and this is less demanding; interesting. |

80,000euros yearling; first foal; dam placed 11.5f in France, closely related to French 1m4f Listed winner Becqu Adoree; didn't count on Galway debut early this month (well behind third-placed Christmas Day); can only be watched. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
9st 0lb |
Twice runner-up in nurseries on AW last autumn; reappeared for back-to-back wins, at Limerick and when running away late over the same trip at Leopardstown; second over an extra furlong at the same venue on next start; back in the winning groove at Limerick; up 5lb and a senior rider replaces a 7lb claimer. |

Rapid improver of late, twice runner-up on AW last autumn and has reappeared for back-to-back wins in 1m handicaps at Limerick and when running away late on under today's rider here last month; every chance of staying this extra furlong and could still have more to offer despite 16lb rise for two wins. |
