5th Oct 2026 Good 2m 0f 0y |
11st 3lb |
12-race maiden on Flat, useful early in career in Germany, regressive in Britain; bought for 10,500gns at the Newmarket July sales; made a satisfactory introduction to hurdling when third at Roscommon last Monday; can reach the money again. |

28th Sep 2026 Good 1m 7f 135y |
11st 7lb |
12-race maiden in Britain for Jamie Osborne with a rapidly diminishing Flat mark; hurdling debut after being bought for 10,500Gns at the Newmarket July sales. |

23rd Jun 2026 Soft 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 9lb |
Beaten less than 10l in the German Derby last year; nowhere near that form for Marco Botti or Jamie Osborne but getting back on slower ground could help. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Showed promise, amid greenness, with close fifth of eight in 1m maiden on Lingfield AW; half-brother to a C&D winner for his notable connections and looks interesting with improvement on the cards. |

23rd Sep 2025 Standard 1m 0f 1y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Half-brother to 1m2f AW winner Ehtiram (RPR 81); unraced dam closely related to smart 1m4f/1m6f winner Naqeeb, half-sister to winners Baaeed (1m/1m2f including multiple Group 1) and Hukum (1m-1m6f including 2yo/Group 1); plenty to like on pedigree and wouldn't have to be anything special to play a part; market crucial. |

30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 3f 23y Class 6 |
9st 7lb |
Sent off favourite/joint favourite for two handicap starts this month but he has finished in midfield on both occasions; clearly felt capable of better but he needs to do it on the track and he will be another 2lb lower from the weekend. |
7/1 |

5th 7 (3) |
22nd Jan 2026 Standard 1m 4f 98y Class 6 |
9st 8lb |
Backed into favouritism for his 1m3f Kempton handicap debut 15 days ago but never seriously threatened in sixth; it'll be interesting to see whether his supporters are prepared to give this lightly raced sort another chance. |

9th Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
3,800gns 2yo; by Make Believe; sibling to two winners, notably Sajir (5.5f-7f including AW/Group 1; RPR 124); dam Group-placed 6f AW 2yo scorer (91); purchase price suggests he may lack significant potential. |

1st 4 (7) |
22nd Sep 2026 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 3 |
9st 12lb |
Refused to enter stalls latest intended start; all six starts on AW, winning 1m2f Chelmsford novice and 1m4f Wolverhampton handicap in the autumn; only fifth here next time but resumed his progression when second of eight over 1m3f at Kempton in February; absent since but has to be considered on his return. |

27th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 7f 169y Class 2 |
8st 2lb |
All six starts on AW, winning 1m2f Chelmsford novice and 1m4f Wolverhampton handicap in the autumn; only fifth at Chelmsford next time but resumed his progression when second of eight over 1m3f at Kempton nine days ago; that appeals as solid form and he's likely to have a big say off the same mark (2lb higher from Saturday) if his stamina holds over this significantly longer trip (pedigree provides hope). |

13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 6f 115y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
All turf starts on good/good to firm; cheekpieces and moving up to 1m6f worked a treat initially with wins at Goodwood and Newmarket, but he looked hard work when a fair fifth at the big Goodwood meeting and blinkers over 2m didn't work at York last time; kinks remain and he now tries a visor. |
100/30 |

7th 5 (4) |
19th Aug 2026 Good 2m 0f 56y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Stepping up to 1m6f with cheekpieces enlisted resulted in wins at Goodwood (good) and Newmarket (good to firm); that's not ironed out all the kinks, though, as he looked hard work at Glorious Goodwood 18 days ago on his way to a fair fifth of 13, with Small Fry in second; probably needs to resume improvement on this first go at 2m but he's one to be reckoned with if first-time blinkers receive the same response that first-time cheekpieces did. |

9st 10lb |
Four-race maiden who ran with promise, keeping-on fourth, in amateur riders' handicap at Leicester (1m4f) last week; may be capable of progress upped further in distance; interesting. |
