9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Half-brother to smart Flat and hurdle winner Absurde; odds-on winner of maiden at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) and novice at Redcar (1m1f, good to soft) on last two starts as 2yo, in the latter making all and stretching 8l clear; needs a good deal better in this company but he's clearly promising. |

27th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 0y Class 5 |
9st 11lb |
Seemed to be tapped for toe in the latter stages over 7f on debut; suited by the step up in trip at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) and the form of that success has been franked; respected under 7lb penalty. |

8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
140,000gns yearling; made the breakthrough at the sixth attempt when surging 4l clear in a Newcastle handicap (1m, AW; 6-4 favourite) in November; 8lb higher on his return but he could have a lot more to offer as a 3yo and he's strongly respected back on turf. |
5/1 |

1st 4 (4) |
1st Nov 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Five-race maiden but he's reached the frame in both nurseries including an eyecatching fourth after a slow start at Leicester (1m, good; 5-2 favourite) last month; should have more to offer at this trip and he's an interesting contender back on AW. |

12th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 1m 1f 11y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Three races, best when third of nine at Haydock (upped to 1m, good to soft) latest; helped to make the running that day; dam 1m5f winner and it looks as if her son will be suited by today's extra 1f; should be seriously involved but debutant Poseidon's Warrior finished just ahead at Haydock. |
5/1 |
|
3rd 3 (5) |
27th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Has shown ability on both starts (7f, good to firm/good to soft) and pedigree provides hope he'll be capable of better now up in trip; however, he's yet to really threaten and a sizeable step forward is needed. |
8/1 |
|
3rd 1 (1) |
11th Sep 2025 Good 0m 7f 3y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
90,000gns yearling with a good pedigree; 18-1 for his debut and made late gains for seventh of ten at Newbury (7f, good to firm) last month; a likely improver. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Yet to score but he's been in the frame all four starts and ran well when second at Newbury (1m, good) on his handicap debut 12 days ago; made his bid on a part of the track that was possibly unfavoured that day and looks sure to make his presence felt again. |
7/2 |
|
2nd 9 (3) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
8st 12lb |
Made the frame at Newbury (6.5f/7f) in both 2yo starts and went down by only a neck at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) on reappearance; fairly solid handicap debutant, assuming he stays the new trip. |

11th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 31y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Ended four-race 2yo campaign with clear win in Brighton novice (1m, good to firm) in October; never looked like winning on his seasonal/handicap debut at Southwell last month; may need more of a test. |
12/1 |

5th 5 (6) |
7th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Ended four-race 2yo campaign with clear win in Brighton novice (1m, good to firm) in October, having previously run well over 7f on Tapeta here; gelded during 173-day break; open to improvement in handicaps this year. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Gosden colt who has shown solid promise with his third-place finishes at Newbury (7f) and Yarmouth (1m); out of an AW winner; holds leading form claims switched to this sphere. |
7/4 |
|
3rd 5 (1) |
16th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 3y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Promising third of ten at Newbury (7f, good to firm) where he was one place behind a subsequent winner, fared best of the newcomers and shaped as if this extra furlong will suit; major contender. |

27th May 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Four siblings have triple-figure RPRs; all runs at 7f; was a promising runner-up on his second and final start at two here in September; nothing went right on his return at Wolverhampton last month and he looks worth another chance now qualified for handicaps. |
15/2 |
|
6th 9 (5) |
17th Apr 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 4 |
9st 3lb |
Finished well behind Law Court when last of ten on his Newbury debut (7f, good to firm) last August, but much better when second of 14 at Kempton (7f, Polytrack) the following month; off seven months since and has been gelded, but still high on list if taking another step forward. |
9/2 |
|
2nd 9 (2) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Trailed home last of ten in Newbury contest (7f) but could leave that effort behind, being a nicely bred Juddmonte colt; similar type to Mr Keble. |

2nd May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Has finished behind some of today's rivals on two occasions, latest in the Craven when admittedly running well on bare figures; gained sole success (from five attempts) at novice level and looks well short of the required standard in this field; first-time headgear needs to make a difference. |
100/1 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
16th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Scored at Newbury when last seen on turf; looked flattered to finished just under 2l behind Hidden Force, who had something in hand, at Kempton most recently and is unlikely to reverse the placings; however, bred to do better still and may produce another good effort. |
20/1 |
|
2nd 4 (4) |
25th Feb 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Off the mark at the second attempt last year (7f); backed as if defeat was out of the question on his return in a Southwell novice last month (1m) but he hung badly left and was chinned on the line; it's of significant interest that connections pick this as his next assignment over say a 0-90 handicap. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Ended his steadily progressive 2yo campaign by scoring readily at Doncaster (sole handicap attempt) then running well in the Horris Hill at Newbury, both over 7f (soft/good to soft); may well have more to offer this term and enters calculations on reappearance. |
9/1 |
|
3rd 7 (3) |
25th Oct 2025 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Proved well ahead of opening mark in Doncaster nursery (7f, good to soft) most recently, scoring in emphatic style and taking record to 6321; ran well over C&D the time before; improving colt who is one to consider. |

23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Gained his 2yo win over 7f on AW but ran respectably over 6f at Ascot (good) most recently, while shaping as if this drop to 5f is worth exploring; possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear. |
7/2 |
|
4th 7 (19) |
8th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Beat 13 others to land Kempton novice (AW) in September but only fifth when favourite for handicap debut at Newmarket (also 7f, good to firm) the following month; subsequently gelded and his comeback run at Bath (5.5f, good but almost certainly softer) can be written off; booking of William Buick (1-4 for yard this season at start of the day) catches the eye. |
