4th 6 (9) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Half-brother to smart Flat and hurdle winner Absurde; odds-on winner of a maiden at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) and novice at Redcar (1m1f, good to soft; made all) on last two starts as 2yo; pushed Maltese Cross all the way in Lingfield Derby Trial (11.6f, good to firm) and could improve on that first-time-out display; more to do but he's heading the right way. |

2nd 3 (1) |
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. |
5/1 |

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. |

25th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 14y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Comfortable winner here (1m, Class 6; 6-4 favourite, from 7lb lower) last November; less productive on Nottingham comeback run; fifth of 14 at Bath (1m, good) 12 days ago was better, and he's noted over 7f at a track which suits; Harry Vigors takes off a handy 5lb. |
7/1 |

5th 3 (12) |
13th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Ended 2025 with breakthrough success in 1m Newcastle nursery in November; went too freely on his reappearance when eighth of 12 at Nottingham (1m) in April; can take a step forward now. |
10/1 |
|
8th 9 (7) |
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. |

22nd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 99y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Acquitted himself well in smart company on final 2yo starts at 1m and 1m1f; easy to back for handicap debut at Sandown (1m2f, good) ten days ago where he was checked in his run but nevertheless made some progress from off the pace; can go well with the extra distance likely to suit. |
5/1 |
|
7th 8 (7) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Placed in his last three starts last season, the latest when beaten 5l into second of seven here (1m1f, good) in October; market useful now making his handicap debut after eight months off. |
12/1 |
|
2nd 2 (7) |
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. |

13th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Has shown steady progress that may well continue; opened his account in Sandown handicap (1m, good) most recently, beating The Joker and taking record this term to 221; solid claims. |
5/2 |
|
1st 1 (2) |
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. |

27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y Class 4 |
9st 2lb |
Often pulled hard last year and was gelded over the winter; this season his issue has been blowing the start and that's what cost him any chance last time; up to winning off this mark but has to be considered risky now. |
7/2 |
|
4th 7 (8) |
6th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 208y Class 2 |
8st 6lb |
Brighton novice winner last season at 1m; gelded in November; perhaps needed his first run back and then he stuck on gamely for a close third at Windsor (1m, good to firm); could step up again but will need to in this better race. |
2/1 |
|
3rd 11 (5) |
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. |

7th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |

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. |

17th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 80y Class 4 |
8st 12lb |
Well-bred gelding who looked promising when second of 14 in a Kempton novice (7f, AW) last September, but he hasn't had a clear shot at things in either outing since; could rebound with blinkers now given a go. |
11/2 |

9th 14 (8) |
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. |

19th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won on good to firm as 2yo; 80-1 when among the backmarkers in the 2,000 Guineas at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) in May in first-time cheekpieces; all change with blinkers, 1m3f and heavy going for the Derby Italiano at Milan 17 days ago and it worked a treat as he came home strongly from midfield to win in the final strides; that was a doughty performance and this is another Group 2, but he faces stronger opposition. |
16/1 |
|
10th 15 (11) |
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. |

11th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Overwhelmed rivals on handicap debut at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) last September and even better in defeat in a Group 3 at Newbury after; looked sure to improve upon a useful return at Goodwood (7f, good) in May when upped to 1m in the Britannia at Royal Ascot but he could never gather momentum after getting hampered 2f out; remains one to be interested in. |
4/1 |
|
7th 11 (27) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Bundles of promise last season even before winning easily on his handicap debut and finishing third in the Group 3 Horris Hill when soft ground might not have been to his liking; his reappearance offered lots of hope for the future, finishing fourth of 17 at Goodwood (7f, good) behind horses with kinder draws and nothing was finishing stronger than this colt; running style and pedigree shouts improvement over this longer trip; he might be the one. |
9/1 |
|
4th 4 (15) |
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. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 6lb |
Won in first-time cheekpieces (retained since) at Goodwood (5f, good) in May and has continued in good heart, not beaten far when eighth of 16 in the competitive 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good) before close third of four at Goodwood (5f, soft); he's in with an each-way shout. |
7/1 |
|
3rd 1 (2) |
12th Jun 2026 Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Returned to winning form over C&D (good) last month, aided by first-time cheekpieces (retained since) and the drop back to the minimum trip; respectable midfield finish in the competitive 3yo Dash at Epsom (5f, good) last Friday and holds strong claims back down in grade. |
6/4 |
|
8th 4 (4) |
5th Jun 2026 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 2 |
9st 3lb |
All turf races have been on good or quicker but dam's best form was on soft; sole 2yo win was over 7f on the AW; ran well for a long way over 6f at Ascot on second run back and proved thoroughly at home over the new 5f trip at Goodwood (good; first-time cheekpieces) since, racing well within himself and coming clear for an impressive win; up 6lb but has better to come. |
