12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
10st 0lb |
Progressive juvenile form, placed in maidens at Punchestown and the Curragh before off the mark final start over 1m at Naas in October, making all; should stay 1m2f; type to continue improving and yard have a good recent record in this. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Low-key display over 6f first time out; much better when third behind a well-fancied stablemate over this trip at Punchestown; outpointed by a useful sort in a 1m1f contest; has the beating of Enceladus on that showing; could be hard to beat now with Jack Cleary's claim. |

28th Sep 2025 Good To Yielding 1m 1f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Mild promise over 6f here on debut but much better at Punchestown (8f) last time after a break when just .75l behind stablemate Port Of Spain; that one was due to run in the Beresford Stakes here yesterday; looks a big player. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good 1m 2f 0y |
9st 8lb |
A place ahead of smart Enceladus when second at Naas last year; off the bridle a long way out when second on his return at Leopardstown (1m1f), and not mad about his head carriage that day. |

2nd 4 (13) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 0y |
9st 8lb |
Proved odds of 33-1 all wrong when splitting Cape Cod (handicap winner here off 92) and last week's Goodwood Group 3 winner Enceladus on debut at Naas (1m, yielding) last October; has been gelded and now sports cheekpieces; leading form claims if fully fit for return. |

1st 3 (6) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Won a good duel for maiden at Cork (10.5f, good to yielding) in April and followed up in a 19-runner race for handicap debut at Royal Ascot (1m4f, good to firm) six weeks ago, challenging entering the straight and tenaciously keeping the rest at bay; no harm for the Ascot form that the second hacked up last Friday and the third was a close third in Listed race; scopey sort who looks open to further improvement and should be a leading player. |
5/2 |

1st 10 (13) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
8st 12lb |
Third in his two maidens as 2yo, before winning one against 15 rivals in a good duel at Cork (10.5f, good to yielding) in April; runner-up took same position behind Cannes three weeks later; Sea The Stars colt who looks scopey and open to plenty of improvement, including at 1m4f; one of four handicap debutants in this for his yard; very much one to note. |
9/1 |

1st 10 (10) |
24th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 2f 100y |
9st 5lb |
Showed plenty of promise when third on his debut at Punchestown (1m1f, yielding to soft) before finishing third at Naas (1m, yielding) in rematch with Cape Cod who won Leopardstown handicap on return off 92 this month; holds Irish Derby entry and entitled to improve up in trip this season. |

12th Jun 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y |
10st 1lb |
Two decent runs in defeat as a 2yo; won a heavy-ground 6f maiden at the Curragh on return but disappointed in the Madrid handicap over 7f a week later; freshened up since and there should be enough ease in the ground so can be a player. |
17/2 |

13th 5 (13) |
22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 0m 7f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Good effort to win his third maiden start over 6f at the Curragh last week, appearing to benefit from the addition of cheekpieces (retained) when keeping on well; ground should suit and return to 7f shouldn't be an issue; a lot to like as long as this doesn't come too soon. |

8st 11lb |
Promising fifth on sole start for Aidan O'Brien last October, but below that form for current yard in the winter; steps up in trip on handicap debut with first-time visor replacing cheekpieces; best watched at present. |

11th Oct 2025 Yielding To Soft 1m 0f 0y |
9st 7lb |
Sixth foal; Wootton Bassett colt is a brother to the stable's recent 1m3f maiden winner Gifted, half-brother to Listed winner Espionage; dam won the Ribblesdale and is a half-sister to St Leger winner Simple Verse; stablemate Cape Cod may have too much pace for him. |

9st 4lb |
Made a promising introduction in a Naas maiden last September; failed to build on that in two subsequent turf outings; fair fourth of nine in a 7f race of this type on his first outing this year; never counted in a 1m handicap at the same venue. |

New Bay filly related to plenty of winners but she was always in rear on debut at Naas (1m, yielding) a week ago when a 66-1 shot; may need more time. |

Irish raider; 0-5 on the Flat but kept on for second in low-grade Chepstow handicap (1m2f, good to firm) in first-time cheekpieces a fortnight ago; can feature if he takes well to hurdling. |
