9st 10lb |
310,000euros yearling; sixth of nine on his only start for the Gosdens in Windsor maiden (1m2f, good to firm) in July last year, after which he changed hands for just 1,000gns last October; best watched on stable debut/return. |

21st Apr 2026 Standard 1m 4f 51y Class 6 |
8st 12lb |
Made successful handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, Polytrack) in December and finished runner-up three times since, including over C&D; wheels have come off lately, however, and cheekpieces worn last time are retained. |

Made successful handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, Polytrack) in December and finished runner-up three times since, including over C&D; wheels have come off lately, however, and first-time cheekpieces need to get her firmly back on track. |

Mainly performed well after making a successful handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, Polytrack) in December, but needs to put a lesser effort over C&D 15 days ago behind her; first-time tongue-tie. |

22nd May 2026 Soft 2m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 9lb |
Unraced on softer than good when on turf; made immediate progress when switched to AW in the autumn, completing a hat-trick in a 1m4f novice and 1m4f/1m6f handicaps; perhaps in need of the race (albeit joint-favourite) on reappearance last month and fifth of 12 at Newmarket (1m6f) four weeks later was respectable, but settling him was an issue; suitability for a slog over 2m can therefore be questioned. |

Made immediate progress when switched to AW in the autumn, completing a hat-trick in a 1m4f novice and 1m4f/1m6f handicaps; perhaps in need of the race (albeit joint-favourite) on reappearance four weeks ago, but now needs to show that he can serve up his best on turf. |

6th Apr 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 3 |
9st 10lb |
Immediate progress for switch to AW in the autumn, especially in handicaps on last two starts when a ready winner over 1m4f at Newcastle, then held off a subsequent improver at Wolverhampton (1m6f); up further 3lb; James Doyle rarely rides for yard now but 10-41 overall; can do better again. |

27th May 2026 Good 2m 1f 46y Class 4 |
10st 12lb |
Seven-race maiden for the Gosdens but suffered a few near misses at up to 1m6f; made a quiet stable debut on the Flat (tongue tied after wind surgery) but that was in a strong handicap at York; could make a hurdler. |
9/4 |

14th 12 (11) |
13th May 2026 Good 1m 3f 188y Class 4 |
9st 0lb |
Second or third every time in September-January in his seven races for the Gosdens, most AW; tried as far as 1m6f and in two forms of headgear; sold for 65,000gns in February and has now had wind surgery and has his tongue tied first time; competitive mark in theory but clearly questions to answer. |
14/1 |

3rd 4 (1) |
30th Jan 2026 Standard 1m 6f 21y Class 4 |
9st 9lb |
Chased home a better-fancied stablemate (who is now BHA rated 88) on his Kempton debut last September and then bumped into another smart sort at Ascot on his second run; his four subsequent defeats have come at odds of 30-100 (again behind a progressive rival), Evs, 8-11 and 6-4 and although he should stay this longer trip well, the fact more new headgear is tried suggests he has his quirks; still of interest on handicap debut. |

Well beaten in three AW maiden/novice races (1m3f-1m4f) last summer/autumn and needs to take a big step forward on this seasonal/turf/handicap debut |

15th Oct 2025 Standard To Slow 1m 3f 219y Class 5 |

Huge prices and well beaten in both starts at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta); handicaps may provide better opportunities. |

Beaten 17l into sixth in a C&D maiden last month (66-1; over 13l behind third-placed Frank Stamper); likely one for another day. |

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). |

2nd 1 (4) |
18th Feb 2026 1m 2f 219y Class 4 |
9st 11lb |
Won a 1m2f novice at Chelmsford in October and followed up in 1m4f handicap at Wolverhampton one month later; came up short in his hat-trick bid at Southwell 12 weeks ago but that was a Class 2; still has low mileage and he commands respect. |

23rd Oct 2025 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 5 |
9st 7lb |
Looked in need of the experience when fifth of six on debut over C&D and stepped forward from that when a 4l third of nine at Kempton (1m4f, AW) eight days ago; step back in trip isn't sure to suit but he's open to further improvement. |

25th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 4f 0y Class 6 |
10st 5lb |
Has struggled at big prices in all six starts, including in two runs for new yard this year; cheekpieces are now added and she needs a transformation back up in trip. |

7th Feb 2026 Standard 1m 2f 0y Class 6 |

Has struggled at big prices in all five starts, including on stable debut at Chelmsford (1m2f, Polytrack) last month; dropped another 3lb but can only be watched until she shows some positive signs. |

31st Oct 2025 Standard 1m 4f 14y Class 5 |

Half-sister to four winners for the stable, notably Pyledriver (7f-1m4f including AW/Group 1; RPR 125); well-held fourth of nine on recent Kempton debut (1m4f, AW) but that was behind some useful rivals and she should know more this time; in the mix. |

11,000euros yearling; sister to Listed-placed 1m-1m2f winner Bennetot (including France; RPR 107); dam French Listed-placed 7.5f/8.5f winner (100), sister to 6f 2yo Group 3 winner Lope Y Fernandez, half-sister to 7f/1m Group 2 winner Dark Vision; appealing pedigree and market support should be noted. |
