6th Sep 2025 Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 2 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten 1l by a fellow British-trained newcomer (who was favourite) in a 7f conditions race on soft ground at Deauville three weeks ago; difficult to get a grip on that form but the RPR of 85 was smart. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 1m 4f 6y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Debut was on soft; all four of his races were tight finishes and he won the last three; pulled it out of the fire against useful rivals in a valuable novice event at Newbury (1m2f, good) and narrowly maintained an advantage over Bay Of Brilliance as the pair drew clear in a ding-dong battle for the Lingfield Derby Trial (11.6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; his pedigree is all about 1m4f, including with his sire and dam's sire both Derby winners, and he also shapes as if every yard today will suit; needs to pull out more again but has to be in each-way calculations. |

1st 6 (3) |
9th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 133y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Went close on debut at Ascot (1m, soft) and beat notable rivals in a Newmarket maiden (1m, good) later in September; favourite for a valuable novice event at Newbury (1m2f, good) three weeks ago and battled his way to another narrow win, in a blanket finish but there's a good chance he will come on from that run and be suited by this longer trip (very much supported by pedigree); firmly in the mix. |

1st 1 (3) |
17th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Dante and Derby entry; went close on debut at Ascot (1m, soft) and one better in a Newmarket maiden (1m, good) later in September; battled back admirably in the latter, which is strong form; looks a good prospect for 1m2f and probably even more so for 1m4f. |

1st 12 (14) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Won the last three of his five starts; this season they were 1m2f handicaps (good; unraced on firmer) at Sandown and Newbury, latterly in the London Gold Cup in which he travelled very strongly before squeezing through over 1f out and prevailing virtually on the nod against Sahara King, as the pair drew about 2l clear; these powerful owners have acquired both horses since; up 7lb but improving and capable of better. |
4/1 |

1st 9 (2) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 2 |
8st 7lb |
Plenty of ability all 2yo starts, on final occasion always front rank to win a maiden at Haydock (1m, good to soft); dam was a 1m2f/1m4f winner and he duly improved at 1m2f when reappearing in a six-runner handicap at Sandown (good) three weeks ago, leading over 1f out and just holding on; up 6lb but should have more improvement in him. |
9/2 |
|
1st 2 (6) |
24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 8lb |
Promising third last year on first two starts (1m, good/soft) then won Haydock maiden (1m, good to soft) in September; his dam was a 1m2f/1m4f winner and it seems likely that he'll improve for this step up in trip on handicap/seasonal debut; trainer won this in 2024. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
8st 10lb |
Tongue tied first time and improved when off the mark in eight-runner novice at Chepstow (1m2f, good to firm) three weeks ago, leading over 2f out and comfortably seeing off Thursday's tailed-off King George V longshot Blue Hercules; more to offer, which is needed on this handicap debut; non-runner (very stiff task) in Friday's 1m4f Group 2 here. |

1st 6 (1) |
29th May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 2lb |
Probably below the form of his two 2yo runs when fourth of 11 on seasonal reappearance at Newbury (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago but that was still a pretty good effort; won't be far away if first-time tongue-tie has any positive effect. |

6th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Marked improvement through three-race 2yo career over 1m/1m2f on soft/good; could hardly have scored more easily when 1-7 on final start in that campaign, which he did not live up to when 5-4 favourite with cheekpieces back over Newmarket's 1m2f (good to firm) in handicap on reappearance but his trainer has a major rethink with today's trip; can't be ruled out. |

3rd 1 (1) |
3rd May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Marked improvement through three-race 2yo career, beating a fair maiden by 15l when he won a four-runner maiden at 1-7 over C&D (good) final start; that can't be the most solid form but he could hardly have done it more easily and is a Derby entry; fascinating handicap debutant in first-time headgear. |
7/4 |

3 (4) |
22nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 2f 0y Class 3 |
9st 7lb |
Frankel colt who seemed to need debut experience; fared much better with close second, in front of two subsequent scorers, at Goodwood (1m2f, soft) later in September; the form pick. |
