9st 5lb |
C&D maiden winner on debut; smart form when second in last year's Grade 1 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint; nothing comparable this year; some encouragement can be taken from his staying-on effort when seventh of 18 in the Group 1 Flying Five here a fortnight ago. |

9st 7lb |
Elzaam gelding built on promising debut when winning over this trip at Bellewstown (good); didn't land a blow in Tipperary Listed following month but not discredited when beaten 5l: drops in class and rider's claim a positive. |

Elzaam gelding built on his promising debut run at Down Royal (7f, good) when winning at Bellewstown (1m, good); clearly has a decent level of ability but this is much harder; needs to improve further. |

Churchill colt made it third time lucky when winning a Nottingham maiden (6f, good) by over 3l last month, making all; held by Brussels on their meeting at the Curragh in May; needs more stepped back up to 7f. |

9st 6lb |
Made all in big-field maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to firm) in June on eighth and final outing for Jessica Harrington and, following a 50,000gns sale, he followed up on his stable and handicap debut at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) in August; backed that up with a good second of eight in a 7f 0-90 classified event here (good) and the form has been franked; had 1m form in Ireland; in the mix. |

9st 8lb |
Bought for 50,000gns soon after winning a 6f Curragh maiden in first-time cheekpieces (eighth start); proven over 1m, let alone this far, and could be interesting on yard/handicap debut. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Chesham Stakes runner-up here in 2025; convincing winner of Leopardstown Group 3 (7f, good to yielding) on reappearance before racing freely in 2,000 Guineas and Irish 2,000 Guineas; has had more racing than most of these and has to carry a penalty but should be suited by this return to 7f. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Chesham Stakes runner-up and Listed winner at Tipperary before a respectable effort in a 1m Canadian Grade 1 on final 2yo start; won going away from Power Blue (gave 3lb) in Group 3 at Leopardstown (7f, good to yielding) on reappearance; pulled very hard in the 2,000 Guineas; fifth was a decent outcome in the circumstances; can make his presence felt if settling better. |
6/1 |

5th 14 (5) |
2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Irish colt who has built up a solid record that includes a good effort in Canadian Grade 1 on final 2yo start (sole 1m attempt); won going away from Power Blue, who conceded 3lb, in Group 3 at Leopardstown (7f, good to yielding) on reappearance; could go well but several others bring stronger claims in terms of class and/or potential. |

29th Jul 2026 Yielding 1m 0f 123y |
9st 7lb |
Sprang a 33-1 surprise in a Leopardstown maiden this time last year (7f, good) but hasn't built on that effort, most recently seasonal return at same venue early this month (hanging left late on); entitled to come on for that. |

5th 2 (9) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 50y |
9st 10lb |
Sprang a 33-1 surprise in a C&D maiden (good) last July; last of six in Tipperary listed race the following month; weakened on soft ground upped to 1m on handicap debut here when last seen in October; gelded, 4lb lower now and worth a market check on return. |
12/1 |

18th Oct 2025 Yielding 1m 0f 0y |
9st 12lb |
Surprise debut winner of 7f auction maiden here in July (second won next time out) making virtually all; too keen when similar tactics employed in Tipperary Listed following month but respected back down in grade here. |
