2nd Jun 2026 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Chased home the bang-in-form Aisling Oscar over C&D in December, and he's 2-2 since returning from a break, winning at Southwell and Thirsk (both 1m); has risen a combined total of 10lb (3lb since latest) for those two wins, but he has to figure on the shortlist in pursuit of the hat-trick. |

1st 10 (8) |
16th May 2026 Good 0m 7f 218y Class 5 |
8st 13lb |
Some narrow defeats on AW over the winter but he returned from a break with his best effort yet, overcoming some interference at Southwell (1m) last week to win in good style; has a 7lb higher mark to shoulder in his first 1m turf handicap but he could prove progressive. |

0-10 but he posted some good efforts last year, including when beaten a neck (by one who won his next four) at Newcastle (1m, AW) 138 days ago; steps up in grade on his first start since. |

14th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 5 |

Has cut little ice in a pair of bumpers and 1m novices at Pontefract and Thirsk this summer; very hard to make a case for. |

3rd 10 (1) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Very progressive and unbeaten (4-4) in his first season last year, culminating in Group 2 win at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) where he won going away; finished third, tasting first defeat but not disgraced, at Sandown on reappearance; may resume improvement with that outing under his belt and show that he's still a likely candidate for high ranking in the miling division this term; big player. |
7/2 |

3rd 3 (1) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Highly progressive in his first campaign last year and still unbeaten (4-4); won going away from Opera Ballo in Group 2 at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) on final start; remains one to follow and has the makings of a Group 1 colt this term; commands respect. |
9/4 |
|
1st 7 (4) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Hammered in the betting on his first two starts and he followed a debut win at Kempton (7f, AW) in January with easy win in Thirsk novice (good to firm) over six months later; looked to have his work cut out in Haydock Group 3 (also 1m, good) but was once again very strong in the market and kept his unbeaten record with a convincing success (Prague and Snow Master behind) three weeks ago; still a touch raw that day and he's starting to look quite exciting. |

3rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Unexposed colt who has been runner-up in two starts since returning from an absence, most recently on handicap debut at Epsom (8.5f, good) nine days ago, pulling clear of the rest with the winner; returns to AW and he's a contender off the same mark. |
11/4 |

2 (3) |
25th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 113y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
150,000euros yearling; unexposed colt who showed promise in novice events, including a clear second behind an impressive winner at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) 23 days ago; looks on fair mark now switched to a handicap and he's an interesting contender. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |

Raced freely on debut last autumn; showed similar form when 3l fourth of 12 at Lingfield (1m, AW) three weeks later; bred to be useful and commands respect after nearly nine months off. |

17th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 15y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Won handicap debut at Windsor (heavy) in September and creditable fifth at Yarmouth (good) next time, both over an extended 1m3f; left Ed Walker for 32,000gns later in October and behind on both runs (1m4f; 25-1 and 28-1) this season, so seems best watched for now. |

9th 6 (2) |
26th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 104y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Won handicap debut at Windsor (11.5f, heavy) in September and creditable fifth at Yarmouth (11.5f, good) the following month; left Ed Walker for 32,000gns in October and last week's reappearance (25-1) did not suggest an imminent return to winning form. |

2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 218y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Green on both starts for Harry Charlton but there was some encouragement in his fifth of seven at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) on the second of them; has since changed hands for 14,000gns and joined a shrewd stable; not ruled out, especially if the market speaks in his favour. |

24th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Barely sighted when 50-1 for a 1m maiden at Newbury and sported a hood that day as well; hard to trust after that start, but has been gelded in the meantime. |

12th Apr 2025 Good 1m 0f 7y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
70,000euros yearling; first foal out of a Spanish 7f-1m winner, half-sister to winners High Strung (Listed-placed 8.5f 2yo) and Pour Vous (1m4f/1m7f); somewhat offputting to see headgear on from the outset. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 1lb |
Modest form in two novices and a maiden at around 1m; on a lowly mark for handicap debut but not sure to be suited by the step up to 1m2f. |

Yet to beat a rival in her three runs to date, last of seven in 1m Pontefract maiden 29 days ago; needs this switch to handicaps to spark major improvement. |
