9st 5lb |
Distinguished pedigree, brother of multiple Group 1 winner Baaeed; blessed with plenty of ability himself, stepping up from 7f maiden win 12 months ago when settling a Group 3 at Sandown (1m2f, good) with authority in April; the question asked in the Irish Derby after was a bigger one and a mildly promising forward move soon fizzled out; sights are lowered back at 1m2f and connections have Group 1 aspirations later; the one to beat. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 4f 0y |
9st 2lb |
Sea The Stars colt has strong pedigree credentials as a brother to Baaeed and Hukum; showed strong promise in justifying favouritism at Ascot (7f, soft) on only juvenile outing; made an excellent start to the season when landing the Classic Trial at Sandown, with the disappointing odds-on favourite Action well held in fourth; fascinating as the relative unknown quantity here. |

Smartly bred, being a brother to Baaeed and Hukum; duly showed strong promise in justifying favouritism at Ascot (7f, soft) in sole 2yo outing; held a Royal Lodge entry at the time and currently holds three major entries, including the Derby; should be suited by middle distances; bright prospect. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Won debut last August and a 1m1f AW Group 3 at Chantilly in November; runner-up in British Group 3s in two other starts, one on good to firm last October and the other in Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f) this April; that's not the best form in this field and he wasn't so good in the Dante at York in May on latest outing, but this lightly raced 3yo could still bring potential and William Buick seemingly prefers him to Arabian Light. |

14th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 56y Class 1 |

Won debut last August and a 1m1f AW Group 3 at Chantilly in November; runner-up in British Group 3s in his other two starts, on reappearance starting 11-2 for Group 3 Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good; unraced on softer) and keeping on steadily from rear to be second of seven, with Wise Prince and Action the next two behind him; that's not the best form in this field but he could still bring potential. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Promising 2yo winner; yet to get in the thick of things this season but started off in Group races and he ultimately paid for chasing a strong pace when folding late on in a good Listed event at Sandown three weeks ago (1m, good; unraced on faster); no forlorn hope on handicap debut with Toby Moore taking 7lb off this back. |

28th May 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Promising win at Nottingham (1m, good to soft) last October on sole 2yo start and showed up very well before fading into third in the Group 3 Classic Trial here (1m2f, good) on his reappearance; pulled hard and weakened when finishing last in the Group 2 Dante at York (1m2f, good) a fortnight ago; this drop back in trip looks the right move and he retains potential. |

5th Oct 2026 Yielding To Soft 1m 3f 50y |

Runner-up to Item in the Dante back in May and he's the top rated of these; however, has been confined to pacemaking duties in the meantime and difficult to gauge where he is right now. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 1m 6f 115y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Front-running second in the Group 2 Dante at York (1m2f, good) in May but well beaten in Group 1s on his four starts since, having again made most of the running on first three occasions; a slow start scuppered pacemaking duties on latest but they may again be intended for him today. |

Absent and had wind surgery since coming up short at Royal Ascot; good fourth in major 3yo handicap at Newbury (1m2f, good) the time before; this low-mileage colt may still have more to offer. |

20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Stays 1m2f and acts on good to firm; put firmly in his place when 20-1 for Group 3 Classic Trial at Sandown on reappearance but made late headway into fourth of ten off this mark to Lost Boys in the London Gold Cup at Newbury (1m2f, good) on handicap debut, despite racing freely in rear early on; could have more to give and a stronger pace today may suit. |

Yarmouth maiden winner who was fourth in a Group 3 at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) on his third 2yo start; put firmly in his place in Group 3 Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good) on reappearance but was 20-1 that day, may have needed the run and could be of more interest on this handicap debut. |

4th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 3 |
9st 6lb |
Considerable promise in AW novice races on first two starts (7f/1m) then down the field in 1m2f Classic Trial at Sandown; showed good pace before fading into ninth of 30 in the Britannia Handicap at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) and he could benefit from the drop back in trip; trainer has won two of the last three runnings of this race (at usual home Haydock); chance. |

Made a highly encouraging start on the AW before suffering a reality check in Sandown's Group 3 Classic Trial (behind Wise Prince); it could be that he never did himself true justice on that occasion but he did go off at 80-1. |

18th Jul 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Group 2 Great Voltigeur entry; French Group 3 winner (1m, soft) last September; well behind Al Zanati in the Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good) on reappearance but resumed improvement with a big run at 80-1 in Group 3 at Royal Ascot (1m2f, good to firm) one month ago, keeping on admirably for a close fourth of ten; better still may be needed in today's first-time headgear but he's in calculations. |

18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 1f 212y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Went very close in the Group 3 Solario at Sandown (7f, soft) last August and won the Group 3 Prix des Chenes at Chantilly (1m, soft) in September; his trainer won this two years ago and this 3yo is much better than he showed in the Group 3 Classic Trial at Sandown (1m2f, good) in April on his reappearance, but he's hard to fancy on the back of that heavy defeat (50-1). |
66/1 |

24th Apr 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
Narrowly bagged Group 3 honours at Chantilly (1m, soft) in September when last seen but still needs to prove he can repeat the clear peak form he appeared to show when going close at 25-1 in an exciting Solario at Sandown; gelding who has no major entries in the future. |
