29th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Improved placing each start last year but, having been gelded, he returned with a low-key sixth on handicap debut at Nottingham three weeks ago (upped to 1m2f; 9-2; behind Extraterrestrial); rather watch. |

8th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 50y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Fair form in three quick runs last autumn, finishing third of 14 at Chelmsford on the most recent of them (1m); stamina in bottom half of his pedigree but this opening mark will demand improvement; gelded since last run. |

23rd May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 4 |
9st 4lb |
11-2 for handicap/seasonal debut at Goodwood (1m2f, good) three weeks ago and showed improved form to come from off the pace and win narrowly; the runner-up went one better on Monday; open to further improvement and the 3lb rise will probably underestimate him. |

1st May 2026 Good 1m 1f 197y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Failed to build on earlier promise when sixth of 13 in 1m Kempton maiden last autumn; has since been gelded and he remains with potential now going into handicaps. |

24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Runner-up to exciting prospect at Kempton (1m, AW) in December on third and final 2yo start and returned to action with 4l win in Bath novice (1m2f, good) this month; likeable prospect who is respected on handicap debut. |
6/1 |
|
1st 6 (4) |
5th Apr 2026 Good 1m 2f 37y Class 4 |
8st 11lb |
Third of 11 in a novice at Salisbury (1m, good) in October on second start; gelded before he improved again when second of ten to a good prospect at Kempton (1m, AW) in December, which gives him the best form in this line-up; major claims, although 1m2f is not absolutely certain to suit and he's tended to hang right on his last two starts. |
5/4 |
|
3 (12) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Beaten 11l when seventh of ten at 18-1 on recent debut at Doncaster (1m, soft); however, his dam is from a classy family and it will be no surprise if he takes a sizeable step forward today. |

2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Half-brother to 1m2f winner Forest Hills (RPR 70); tailed off at 25-1 on debut at Ffos Las (7.3f, heavy) in September; transformation needed. |
40/1 |

7th 7 (4) |
9th Sep 2025 Heavy 0m 7f 80y Class 5 |

February foal by Make Believe; half-brother to 1m2f winner Forest Hills (RPR 70); dam unraced half-sister to 1m4f-2m winner Clowance One, out of 1m4f Group 3 winner/Irish St Leger runner-up Clowance; stable can get them ready first time, but already gelded and he may be one for middle-distances next year. |

16th Oct 2025 Standard 0m 7f 14y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
65,000gns breeze-up buy who showed promise when sixth in warm maiden at Sandown (7f) on debut but failed to build on that when a well-beaten fourth at Salisbury (1m) a fortnight ago. |
8/1 |
|
5 (8) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
65,000gns breeze-up buy who showed promise on debut when sixth in warm maiden at Sandown in August (7f, soft; 40-1); pedigree provides hope the extra furlong will suit and he's a possible player. |
13/2 |

6th 7 (6) |

Fifth foal; Time Test half-brother to winners Sea Of Thieves (7f including Listed), Dark Viper (1m; RPR 83) and Kodiac Blue (Italian 5.5f/6f); dam well-bred 7f winner (76); trainer has unearthed a couple of useful 2yos this season and he's not ruled out on debut. |

1st Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Out of the frame in four starts, failing to run up to market expectations on handicap debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) seven weeks ago; gelded since and a visor is now given a go; interesting to see if his backers return. |
10/1 |
|
5th 3 (7) |
13th Apr 2026 Standard 1m 2f 42y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
His standout effort at Chelmsford in November (7f) came in a race that hasn't worked out; should appreciate the step up in trip but not obviously well treated for his handicap debut. |
7/1 |
|
7 (11) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Second foal; by Churchill; unraced dam from talented family (half-sister to 6f Group 3 winner Scream Blue Murder, among others); trainer saddles two newcomers; he may be one for further down the line. |

16-1 for novice at Salisbury (1m, good) two weeks ago, never dangerous and beaten 19l; looks a longer-term project. |

8 (2) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Third foal; Ulysses half-brother to winners Team Player (1m4f; RPR 81) and Continuance (1m2f Flat, 75; 2m/2m1f hurdle); dam 1m/1m2f winner (92); may be of greater interest when tackling further than this debut trip. |

19th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 75y Class 4 |
10st 4lb |
Half-brother to a Group 2 scorer for his connections; two from two, both races at about 1m on good ground, latest at Epsom where he was a 1-12 shot and won going away; has potential and warrants respect, even with a double penalty, in his bid for a novice treble. |
13/8 |
|
1st 3 (1) |
28th Apr 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 113y Class 4 |
9st 7lb |
Half-brother to the classy 1m-1m2f performer Running Lion and this colt was nicely on top late on in a useful 1m novice at Salisbury in October; could easily outclass this opposition and progress to better things. |
2/7 |
|
9 (4) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Seventh foal; Frankel brother to 6f/7f 2yo winner Majestic Glory (including Group 3), half-brother to connections' 1m Group 2 winner Running Lion (who won twice at two) and dual-purprose winner Cozone; dam 1m1f/1m2f winner (RPR 92); represents top stable and could have a big part to play on debut. |

30th May 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 173y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Has proved reliable and progressive in his short career to date; got up near finish when winning at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last month; that looks solid form and he may not have reached his ceiling just yet. |
7/2 |
|
1st 7 (7) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 1lb |
Runner-up on final two of his three 2yo starts (7f/1m, good to soft/good) and improved form on recent seasonal/handicap debut when close third over C&D (good); well regarded and open to further improvement; one to consider. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 1m 3f 218y Class 3 |
8st 4lb |
Made all at Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) on handicap/seasonal debut, building on her 2yo efforts, and looks the type to progress further; bred to be suited by this longer distance; upped in class but receives plenty of weight all round; shortlisted. |
7/4 |
|
1st 7 (2) |
9th May 2026 Good 1m 1f 212y Class 4 |
8st 7lb |
Progressive form in 1m maiden/novice events last year; good chance that trend may continue now handicapping over a longer trip which is bred to suit. |
7/1 |

12 (6) |
2nd Oct 2025 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 4 |

Second foal; dam 1m (2yo) and 1m6f (Listed) winner (RPR 106), out of Italian 1m3f Listed winner; trainer has an excellent record with fillies in this race and this Lope De Vega newcomer is firmly in calculations. |
