1st 4 (7) |
27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Frankel colt whose siblings include two very useful winners for his connections; ran to a respectable RPR, despite looking green and finishing last of four, in Sandown maiden (1m); should progress. |
7/2 |
|
2 (4) |
7th Aug 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Seventh foal; Frankel brother to 1m2f/1m3f winner Barn Owl (RPR 94), closely related to 6f-1m winner Jumbly (including 2yo/Listed), half-brother to four winners notably Epictetus (7f-1m2f including 2yo/Group 3); dam 1m-1m2f winner (including Group 1); bred to be very talented and he's one of two for his top stable; interesting to see how he goes in the betting. |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
1,000,000euros breeze-up purchase; only a modest fifth of 12 in Kempton contest (7f) but was green throughout and may improve a good deal with the experience under his belt; cheekpieces applied. |
11/2 |

5th 9 (6) |
6th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |

$70,000 yearling, 1,000,000euros (breeze-up) 2yo; Maxfield half-brother to six US winners, notably Victory Rally (7f/1m dirt including stakes); dam US 6f-8.5f dirt scorer (including stakes); interesting newcomer, even though William Buick prefers stablemate Ruler Of Time. |

4th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 6f 12y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Proving an inconsistent maiden and failed to make much impact at Kempton (6f; stable debut) most recently; yard also runs Our Guy, who looks more interesting. |
16/1 |
|
7th 3 (3) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Failed to progress from his debut third when trained by Andrew Balding, lacking the pace to land a telling blow over C&D when last seen in January; sold for 10,000gns since; drops in class for his stable debut and Oisin Murphy booked so better could be forthcoming; headgear worn for all three handicap runs now discarded. |
10/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
19th Jan 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
Made a promising debut when third of 11 here (1m) in August, but has gone backwards since and failed to beat a rival in both handicaps with headgear fitted; dropping in trip needs to make a big difference. |

2nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 3lb |
0-5; both his handicaps have been at Chester (1m2f; good then good to soft); the third was encouraging and then reportedly unsuited by ground that connections described as tacky; cheekpieces go on this time and hard to discount. |
7/1 |
|
8th 9 (1) |
12th Jun 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
8st 10lb |
Has improved with each of his four runs to date, resuming from nine months off with a very good third on his handicap debut over C&D 13 days ago; well in the mix off an unchanged mark. |
13/2 |
|
3rd 10 (2) |
30th May 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 70y Class 4 |
8st 13lb |
Finished closer each time in his three-race 2yo career and met trouble in running when fourth of nine at Haydock (1m, good) on final outing, looking on an even keel only very late in the day when running on well; gelded the following day; highly likely to stay and he's a fascinating handicap newcomer who needs a close look for any strength behind him in the betting. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 0f 5y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Showed ability in three novices at 7f and 1m (two on Polytrack) without progressing; looks a slow learner, however, and will likely get his act together at some point; tongue-tie goes on for this handicap debut; respected. |
4/1 |
|
7th 3 (10) |
18th Sep 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
Has shown ability with his fifth-place finishes, latest at Kempton; set for a similar position unless he shows improvement, and may be more interesting in handicaps after this. |
16/1 |
|
5th 2 (9) |
27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Dark Angel colt who showed some promise, amid greenness, at Doncaster (7f) where he finished fifth of 11; in good hands and has frame possibilities with improvement on the cards. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Gelded and tongue tied when justifying favouritism in five-runner handicaps over 1m3f on Kempton AW this February and April; raced a bit freely and never got into it when back to turf at Chester (1m4f, good; second favourite) 16 days ago but not at all discredited and it's possible he may resume his progress; cheekpieces go on. |
5/1 |
|
4th 4 (3) |
7th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 63y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Promise on turf (good to firm/good) as 2yo; gelded and tongue tied when justifying favouritism in five-runner handicaps over 1m3f on Kempton AW this February (fairly smoothly) and April (much harder work, by short head); up another 4lb and back to turf but 1m4f+ will help his hat-trick bid. |
7/2 |
|
1st 2 (1) |
1st Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Son of Sea The Moon who built on earlier promise after five months off (gelded/tongue tied) when an emphatic winner of handicap over C&D 35 days ago from Parisian Scholar; up 6lb but the sort to go on improving and he rates a big player. |

13th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 179y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Off four months/gelded before taking a big step forward on his handicap debut when scoring at Chelmsford (1m2f) 18 days ago; got up late there and this son of Gleneagles has more still to offer now upped in trip; leading claims on his turf debut despite 4lb weights rise. |
5/4 |
|
1st 2 (4) |
26th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Three runs as a 2yo, showing his best form when a keeping-on fourth of 12 at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in December; gelded since; bred to appreciate the longer trip and he's an interesting contender on this handicap debut. |
5/2 |

7th 3 (11) |
27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

36,000euros foal, 205,000gns yearling; Gleneagles sibling to six winners, notably Bracken's Laugh (1m including 2yo/AW; 110); dam 1m2f scorer (107); stablemate of Corduroy; market informative. |

19th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 1y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Held on narrowly at Beverley (1m2f, good to firm) last time, opening his account at the fifth attempt; may build on that win and improve further, provided he takes to first-time headgear; shortlisted. |
9/4 |
|
1st 2 (2) |
23rd Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 207y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Achieved best finish yet when fourth of seven, beaten just over 6l, on recent handicap debut at Leicester (1m2f, good) where he went off 11-2; improvement is necessary today but that can't be ruled out. |

27th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |

Prescott filly who has been struggling at novice level and should be more interesting when qualified for a mark. |
66/1 |
|
6 (8) |
13th Aug 2025 Standard To Slow 0m 7f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Having another quick run and has failed to beat a rival so far (6f/7f); likely to come into her own once handicapping over a longer trip. |
50/1 |
|
1 (2) |
2nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 0m 7f 6y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
20-1 for a Salisbury novice (6f, good to firm) ten days ago and she never got involved before finishing a remote last of seven; should know more over this longer trip but she needs a transformation on her second start. |

27th Jun 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 6 |

Tasleet filly who got back on track with third of eight in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 25 days ago, despite racing freely; not out of things eased 1lb with cheekpieces added. |
12/1 |
|
3rd 6 (6) |
2nd Jun 2026 Standard 0m 7f 36y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Well held in five starts, not achieving much a remote when third of six on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) in April; others preferred. |

10th 11 (5) |
19th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 6 |

Modest third Lingfield (1m, AW) on handicap/seasonal debut; may fare better with the outing under his belt but needs such progress in this deeper-looking affair. |

9th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 140y Class 5 |

Up and down in his short career to date, running badly on stable debut at Wolverhampton last month; others appeal more. |
40/1 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
0-6 but showed there was a race in him when third in a similar contest over C&D last month; sold for 16,500gns to join new yard subsequently and should be thereabouts. |
7/2 |
|
3rd 2 (2) |
9th Mar 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
He fared no better for the step up to 1m4f when fourth of five at Southwell two weeks ago, finishing 16l behind Crown Inn To Win; bred to be useful but he arrives with a point to prove. |
