12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 2f 43y Class 2 |
9st 2lb |
Started this 3yo season with front-running wins in a novice at this track (7f, good to firm) and a valuable conditions event at Gowran Park (9.5f, yielding); tailed off at 50-1 in the Irish Derby but it's finishing last again in an 18-runner handicap at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good to firm; 12-1) which is much more of a worry. |

18th 15 (11) |
31st Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 1lb |
Record of 2-4 features a clearcut win from the front in valuable prize at Gowran Park, showing marked improvement; returns to a more suitable trip/grade after trailing home last in the Irish Derby, and interestingly his yard landed this race with 3yos in 2013 and 2019; one to bear in mind. |
9/1 |

8th 3 (5) |
28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Finished third of eight, beaten 3l, when the well-backed favourite for a soft-ground maiden at Newbury last October (winner finished fourth in the Greenham); made all for 7f Doncaster win on seasonal debut; confirmed reputation as a progressive colt when landing a valuable conditions event over an extended 1m1f at Gowran Park early this month; dam has a decent record at stud, but has tended to produce milers rather than middle-distances types; lacks Pattern race experience. |

5th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Two turf wins under aggressive rides of late, latterly when coming right away with one other off 3lb lower on rain-softened ground at Bath; hard to know what happened at Salisbury in between and this is a deeper race, but he's respected nonetheless. |

1st 9 (10) |
13th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 2lb |
Off the mark at the seventh attempt with a hard-fought win at Windsor (1m, good to firm) but he dropped away tamely next time at Salisbury; difficult to know what to expect from him here. |
12/1 |
|
5th 4 (8) |
21st Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 5lb |
Having edged down the weights he got off the mark at the seventh attempt with a hard-fought win at Windsor (1m, good to firm) last month; up 3lb but this isn't a strong 0-70 and he should make another bold bid. |

1st 4 (4) |
14th Oct 2026 Standard To Slow 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 10lb |
Has been most progressive on turf this year with three wins; needs to translate that form on AW debut and looks a danger to all if he does. |
3/1 |
|
1st 7 (8) |
14th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 31y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Just lost out on handicap debut here in May and two wide-margin wins followed, over C&D and at Carlisle (good to firm and good); has taken a steep rise in the weights but subsequent defeats aren't conclusive evidence that he's reached his peak; likely to figure. |
8/1 |
|
4th 4 (5) |
20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 5 |
9st 8lb |
Made it second-time lucky in handicaps when trouncing his rivals at Windsor and he followed up with a 5l success at Carlisle (1m, good) last month; shot up the weights after those wins but he ran another good race when a close fourth over C&D last month; needs to kick on again to defy this mark but he's still lightly raced and is bred to be useful. |

17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Successful in sole 2yo start; has performed well in a couple of Group 3 contests this term but was a disappointing favourite, albeit on heavy ground, kept to same grade last time; seemed unsuited by Newmarket in sole Group 1 attempt (2,000 Guineas); bottom on ratings back up in class. |
100/1 |
|
7th 8 (2) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Won his Newbury maiden on soft; has raced only four times and sole blip came when 18-1 for the 2,000 Guineas; interesting that he was considered up to that task and, after a break of 96 days, he did all his best work late to take second in a 1m Group 3 at Leopardstown (good); there's surely more to come, as a Group 1 QEII entry would imply. |
11/4 |
|
2nd 8 (6) |
6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Narrow winner of a maiden over an extended 6f (soft) on his debut at Newbury last October; reappeared in the Greenham at the same venue and emerged with credit in finishing fourth of eight, looking in need of a stronger gallop; still looked raw when running in the 2,000 Guineas, eased when beaten; interesting here if he emerges more mature after three months off. |

21st Aug 2026 Good 0m 7f 192y Class 2 |
8st 9lb |
Placed on his first four starts (including on soft) and got going too late in first-time cheekpieces (retained) when sixth of 19 to Exclusive Code on handicap debut at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good to firm); a stronger gallop today would help his cause and he's not discounted. |
12/1 |
|
6th 12 (20) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 3 |
9st 4lb |
He's finished in the first three on all four starts and was stretched by 1m2f when turned over at odds-on last time; wears first-time cheekpieces on handicap debut and his stable won this in 2023; Ryan Moore rides and improvement is possible, but necessary if he's to defy his opening mark. |

15th Oct 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 210y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Went close in a 7f handicap at Epsom in July; two heavy defeats have followed (Class 4 on first occasion) and he may bounce back with cheekpieces given a go. |
8/1 |
|
12th 15 (2) |
9th Sep 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 6 |
9st 4lb |
Yet to score but his second at Epsom (7f, good to firm) in July was his best effort yet; can be excused his latest outing when out of his grade three weeks ago; worth considering. |
14/1 |

7th 10 (1) |
20th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 4 |
8st 6lb |
Lightly raced maiden; in good form in 7f Epsom handicaps, persevering well when runner-up latest, and although he has more to do in this higher grade with a stiffer test at the trip he can be on the premises. |

22nd Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 68y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Kept on when fifth of nine on his handicap debut over 1m2f at Nottingham (good) in April and he then won the first juvenile hurdle of the jump season in June; may have been unlucky not to make it two when beaten by Lucky Sevens at Stratford ten days ago and he has clear potential now asked to tackle a staying trip in this sphere. |

|
2nd 1 |
12th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 2m 0f 70y Class 4 |
11st 7lb |
Put in place by main market rival when second of four at Market Rasen (2m, good; raced too freely) last month but beat a next-time-out winner when scoring on hurdle debut at Hexham (2m, good) a few days earlier and has obvious claims here. |

22nd Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 100y Class 6 |
9st 9lb |
Eight-race maiden who is untested beyond 6.5f; eased in grade after respectable fifth of 12 at Salisbury (6f, soft) 11 days ago but she's not progressing and it's hard to tell how she'll fare over this new trip. |
12/1 |

5th 4 (3) |
11th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 5 |
9st 6lb |
Runner-up on three of her seven starts, most recently in 5f Windsor maiden in August; also suited by 6f but was below form (behind Madman) when back in a handicap last time and does not appear to be progressing. |
