12th Sep 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Is lightly raced for his age but is dual Group 3 winner over 1m2f and won a Windsor Listed event over 1m4f last year; the best of two runs this year was when second to Rebel's Romance in the Group 2 Princess of Wales Stakes last time; has to be considered. |

2nd 3 (2) |
9th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Missed most of 2024 and a narrow Listed win at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) last August was the only time that he's recaptured his best; even that isn't nearly enough to win this and he trailed in last behind Tenability on reappearance at Goodwood last month; stablemate of Rebel's Romance and might make the running. |
33/1 |

5th 2 (2) |
7th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
2024 Sandown Classic Trial winner (good to soft) who missed the rest of that season; underwhelming on first four starts last year and ran particularly poorly at Glorious Goodwood (sole visit here) but he ended that campaign by winning narrowly in a four-runner Listed race at Windsor in August; needs to build on that but should stay 1m4f. |

20th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Listed winner for Karl Burke (1m2f, good) last May and he's gone very close in Listed races this summer on his first two runs for William Haggas (1m2f/11.4f, good to firm), making the running each time; has shown promise on good to soft (unraced on softer); might not be far away. |

23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Won a Newmarket Listed event (1m2f, good) for Karl Burke in May last year; sold for 520,000gns last autumn and having been gelded he made a fine return/stable debut when beaten a nose in a Sandown Listed contest (1m2f, good to firm) in June; much respected if building on that; holds a Qipco Champion Stakes entry. |

4th Jul 2025 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
9st 9lb |
Maiden winner in 2023 for Andrew Balding and Listed scorer in 2024 for Karl Burke; sold for 520,000gns and gelded since last run; returns from absence and debuts for William Haggas; heed the market signals. |

26th Sep 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y Class 2 |
10st 0lb |
Fine second at York (1m2f, good to soft) last month and won at Doncaster (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; a 4lb penalty takes him to a new career-high mark but he looked better than ever last time and Karl Burke and Clifford Lee have combined to win the last two runnings of this race with topweights. |

1st 1 (5) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Twice runner-up in large fields over York's 1m2f this season, including at the Ebor festival (good to soft) on latest start; respected despite a return to his career-high mark. |
4/1 |
|
2nd 2 (13) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 56y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
His two wins here came on good to firm but he also acts on soft; respectable seventh of 22 to Raammee in the John Smith's Cup over C&D (good to firm) latest; being eased 2lb is a help but it may not be quite enough. |

3rd Oct 2025 Good 1m 6f 34y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Sole win remains his maiden as 2yo, admittedly appearing mostly in Group races since; gelded before penultimate start but also put in his place since in a Listed race and valuable handicap; hooded today, having tried cheekpieces and blinkers in June; this is a new trip but it's hard to have much confidence in him right now. |
10/1 |
|
4th 1 (1) |
6th Sep 2025 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won for Sir Michael Stoute at two; highly tried since that maiden win and was gelded prior to finishing third of four in a small-field Listed race at Windsor two weeks ago (extended 1m3f); on the verge of becoming a tad disappointing, but this is his handicap debut and he tries soft ground for the first time. |
10/1 |
|
4 (4) |
23rd Aug 2025 Good 1m 3f 99y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Yarmouth maiden winner (7f, good to firm) for Sir Michael Stoute last September; has been taking on exalted company in his last three starts, including when a far-from-disgraced fifth of 11 in the Dante at York (1m2f, good to firm); gelded since sixth of nine in the King Edward VII at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good to firm); no surprise if he goes well; no headgear today. |
