3rd 5 (10) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 13lb |
Cost 340,000gns as a yearling, with dam a sister to dual Arc winner Treve; progressive in his three 2yo races, winning a novice at Kempton (7f, AW) before his rallying second in a notable conditions stakes here (1m, good to soft; just ahead of Bourbon Blues); gelded later; makes his reappearance but 1m2f+ should be a big help, so he's one to note. |

2nd 4 (5) |
19th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Cost 340,000gns as a yearling; both starts over 7f on AW, finishing second at Southwell then recording a 2l success at Kempton; in excellent hands and brings potential to this better grade. |

1st 8 (10) |
20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
340,000gns yearling; shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up on debut at Southwell (7f, AW; 9-2) 23 days ago, coming from the rear in a race in which they went a steady pace early; sets the standard; yard won this in 2021, also a division with Qirat in 2023. |

29th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Improved with each of his three runs in maiden/novice company, most recently finishing second of ten over C&D ten weeks ago (tongue tied, absent today); gelded prior to his nursery debut; case can be made that he is well treated and his market prominence thus far would suggest he was well thought of early on; interesting. |

20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Down the field at York (6f, good; 13-2) on debut in May but he took a step forward when third of 11 at Ffos Las (6f, good; 2-1) 35 days ago, albeit still beaten around 7l; steps up to 7f with a tongue-tie added for his AW debut; better needed. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Picked up a Southwell nursery (AW) in September and after a solid comeback at Newmarket in April he posted his best effort yet when second at Ascot (also 1m, good) three weeks ago; improving colt who is much respected. |
15/2 |
|
2nd 12 (12) |
8th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Gained only win from seven starts in a run-of-the-mill AW nursery but was close up in fifth on last month's seasonal debut at Newmarket (1m, good), and is closely matched with Blue Courvoisier and Arbaawy on that form. |
14/1 |

5th 12 (4) |
14th Apr 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Record of 412 at Class 5 level since handicapping, the last two performances over 1m on AW; he's 6lb than last turf appearance and goes up in grade; needs to find further progress. |

15th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Finished last in his only turf race (40-1); getting closer on AW, finishing on the heels of Extraterrestrial when front-running third of seven on handicap debut at Southwell (1m3f) 16 days ago; needs to build on that. |
10/1 |
|
3rd 2 (7) |
29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Better effort here 39 days ago despite still looking green; dam winning over 1m4f offers hope for this marked step up in trip; betting useful on handicap debut. |
9/2 |
|
4th 4 (2) |
21st Mar 2026 Standard 1m 0f 13y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
He made an encouraging start to his career when fourth of ten in a 7f novice at Kempton last August; stiff task in a sales race at the Curragh one month later; stepping up in trip should suit and he is open to improvement this year. |

4th Mar 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Improved with each of his three runs in novice/maiden company, getting off the mark in a four-runner event at Newcastle in September; another step forward when second to Saffron Dandy (followed up in warm race at Lingfield last week) on 6f Wolverhampton handicap debut in January and possibly found a second run after a break coming too soon when only sixth at Newcastle ten days later; freshened up since; could bounce back with a bang. |
5/2 |
|
6th 7 (10) |
16th Jan 2026 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
8st 8lb |
Improved with each of his three runs in novice/maiden company, getting off the mark in a four-runner event over C&D last September; another step forward when second of five on his recent handicap debut, meeting a bit of trouble early in the home straight; this is a stronger race but he hasn't reached his ceiling yet and is 2lb ahead of the handicapper. |
8/1 |
|
2 (2) |
28th Sep 2025 Standard 0m 6f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Only midfield on his Kempton debut (7f) last month but he built on that when finishing his race off strongly for second at Lingfield (6f) two weeks ago; capable of better. |

25th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Has been running respectably in nurseries and now drops back in distance; vulnerable to anything progressive but should give another good account from low draw. |
11/2 |
|
8 (1) |
15th Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 5 |
9st 4lb |
Kept on for third on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) last month and suited by the step up in trip when second there (8.6f) last time, when clear of the third; thereabouts if the return to turf isn't an issue. |
9/1 |
|
2nd 7 (4) |
4th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 6 |
9st 6lb |
Too Darn Hot colt who is out of 1m/8.5f winner; no impact in four runs so far but he made some late headway when third on nursery debut here (7f) 12 days ago; that was eyecatching and he looks interesting on this step up in trip. |

23rd Sep 2025 Heavy 1m 0f 100y Class 5 |

Brought along steadily, posting his best effort when seventh in 7f Kempton novice 18 days ago; this longer trip promises to suit on his first go on turf. |

7th 2 (1) |
5th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

20th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
260,000gns yearling; has a nice pedigree but he beat only one rival home on debut at Southwell (7f, AW; 40-1) 23 days ago; may be one for further down the line. |

12th Feb 2026 Standard 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Struggled in four starts last year (7f/1m) and holds weak form claims; has undergone wind/gelding operations since last seen and wears a first-time tongue-tie on his return; best watched. |

Ended 2025 with a pair of wins in Kempton nurseries (1m and 7f); he has struggled in two handicaps this time around, however, and comes here with a point to prove. |
14/1 |

8th 6 (2) |
6th May 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Won two nurseries here last autumn (C&D, 7f), latterly off a 4lb lower mark; made a low-key comeback on rain-softened turf recently (Trio third; Crafty Blue behind) but should fare better back on Polytrack. |
