12th 12 (8) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 1 |
9st 0lb |
Versatile as regards ground; broadly progressive and versatile mare whose strike-rate is 7-13; last four performances (1m4f-1m7f) were two wins at Group 2 level and second-place finishes in Group 1 races, beaten only narrowly at Longchamp most recently; currently falls short of the standard set by the other female in this field but has a trajectory that bodes well; wears first-time headgear; adds interest. |

1st 7 (7) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Upped to 2m for a handicap win at York Ebor meeting (good to firm) last August; tried front-running to positive effect against her own sex over about 1m6f on her subsequent two starts when winning the Group 2 Park Hill at Doncaster (good to soft) and second in Group 1 at Longchamp (very soft); has a form chance on this return but the stayer's mantle will have to be shed. |

1st 5 (4) |
11th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 1m 6f 115y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Unraced on softer than good; fourth when she tried a Listed race and Irish Group 3 this summer, coming from last to fourth in a steadily run race for the latter over 1m6f, despite hanging right; 2m duly proved just the ticket back in a handicap at York three weeks ago, asserting late on; perhaps testing ground will offset today's shorter distance; chance if so. |

2nd 2 (2) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Had 1m4f wins last season in a Group 3 at Newbury (good to firm) in May and Group 2 in Italy (good; made all for career-best form) in October; tailed off in Hong Kong on final start but has a shout if back to his best. |

4th 1 (1) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Fourth in 2,000 Guineas here in 2022 prior to long absence; back to his best when winning the Group 3 Aston Park Stakes at Newbury (1m4f, good to firm) in May; unraced since and carries a 5lb penalty today but he goes well fresh and could play another leading role. |
15/2 |
|
1st 4 (5) |
17th May 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Good fourth in 2,000 Guineas in 2022, then absent for nearly two years; close second in Listed contest at Ayr (1m2f, good to firm) last September and has run some respectable races in defeat since; it's possible he has some untapped potential at this trip but others have more substance to their claims. |

2nd 6 (6) |
20th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 2m 5f 143y Class 2 |
9st 4lb |
First-time blinkers when he was a very taking winner of last year's Copper Horse Stakes (1m6f, good to firm) at this meeting in which he came from well behind to win going away; gelded and, in no headgear, returned to that level of form when third in Group 2 at Newmarket (1m4f) on reappearance, only to then finish last of the five in new cheekpieces (retained) in the Group 3 Aston Park at Newbury; however, the first two home at Newbury were Group 1 horses, and on reflection it wasn't that bad a run; the burning question is whether he'll stay. |
5/1 |
|
5th 3 (4) |
16th May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Won two 1m6f handicaps last term, latterly in taking style from off the pace at Royal Ascot (good to firm) when wearing headgear first time; gelded and back to that sort of form when third of six in Group 2 at Newmarket (1m4f) 15 days ago, albeit not getting to grips with the leaders; no headgear that day (he has also tried a visor) but he's now fitted with first-time cheekpieces; bit to find if others are on their game. |

3rd 3 (1) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won two 1m6f handicaps last term, latterly in taking style from off the pace at Royal Ascot (good to firm) when blinkered first time; slowly away on both subsequent starts, looking as if he was stretched by 2m in the Group 1 Goodwood Cup on first occasion (creditable) but tailed-off second favourite in the Ebor last time (visored; raced wide and made most); back to 1m4f, with headgear removed and needs overall improvement but the gelding operation may have helped. |

1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Peak efforts were as a 3yo but reappearance at Meydan this January saw his first win since 2023; nearly won another 1m6f Group 3 there next time, before a headstrong display (set up big lead) saw him tail off in 2m Dubai Gold Cup five weeks ago; the latter was in blinkers (first time since September) which are unsurprisingly left off today; thereabouts if bouncing back. |
8/1 |
|
4 (8) |
12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
No win since Group 1 as 2yo; good third, however, in the 14.5f St Leger here one year ago and only half a length behind Sweet William when trying 2m in the Goodwood Cup on penultimate outing; hampered at 1m4f latest; into new territory over this trip but Goodwood Cup suggests he is a serious player. |
5/1 |

4th 5 (4) |
29th Jul 2025 Good 2m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 12lb |
Probably okay on any going; runner-up in last season's Irish Derby and third in the St Leger; those are the clear highlights in form terms but his always-prominent fourth of 12 in Group 2 Hardwicke at Royal Ascot last month in first-time blinkers was much more like it again; this is a new trip but he's stuck to his task well on those best efforts over 1m4f/14.5f. |

3rd Jul 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Six-time winner on the Flat over shorter trips than this (1m1f-1m4f), including at this track in 2023; beaten about 5l when fifth of seven in a Group 3 over this C&D in May (behind Lazy Griff and ahead of Furthur and Duke Of Oxford) but that was steadily run and he didn't fully prove his stamina; stable won this with Trueshan in 2024 but this 7yo has a bit to find to reverse placings with Lazy Griff. |

5th 6 (1) |
28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
7yo who has a good record here and has been better than ever in AW handicaps this year, and he wasn't beaten far when fifth of six in Group 2 Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) four weeks ago; however, his form needs to go to a new level and he's unraced beyond 1m4f on the Flat. |
33/1 |

5th 5 (6) |
1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
In the form of his life this winter with a win at Lingfield (1m4f) in February and close calls in his other three outings; those were on AW, which does seem to suit him particularly well, and also in handicaps, which leaves him with something to find in his first Group venture. |

1st May 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
7l Listed win over C&D (good to firm) last September; there are also plenty of lesser shows to be considered and, after he was not discredited in Qatar in February, he managed only fourth of six when favourite for Group 3 at Newbury 13 days ago; in the mix on peak efforts. |

4th 5 (2) |
18th Apr 2026 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |

Not discredited in Qatar in February on latest outing and in the mix judged on peak efforts, including a Newmarket Listed win (1m4f) last September; however, there are also plenty of lesser shows to be considered. |

1st 6 (3) |
26th Sep 2025 Good 1m 4f 0y Class 1 |
9st 7lb |
Listed winner at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in November 2023 but didn't kick on from that in light campaign last year and soundly beaten at Kempton (1m4f, AW) in April on his sole run this season; has to get back to his peak. |
