17th Oct 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Good 7f performer for a long while; has shown career-best form in his 1m attempts this season, coming off a solid pace to register a 50-1 success in the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot (good to firm) then running creditably in the Sussex Stakes and Prix du Moulin; in the mix, especially if getting another well-run race. |

4th 9 (8) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Prior to this year all his best form was at 7f on ground good or slower, and yet he popped up at 50-1 in a fast-ground Queen Anne and proved that was no flash in the pan with his close fourth to Bow Echo in the Sussex Stakes (again 1m on good to firm), in which he was nearest at the finish having been held up out the back; hard to knock. |
6/1 |
|
4th 7 (7) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Came off the good pace set by Opera Ballo when 50-1 winner of the Queen Anne at Royal Ascot (1m, good to firm) last time, completing a quickfire June double that was initiated over 7f at Epsom; still unexposed as a miler and has frame possibilities provided the latest piece of form is backed up. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Not at his best in Group 2s on his last two outings but his fourth when bidding for a second successive win in the Lennox at Goodwood in July shows this front-runner is still capable of very smart form on his day; a potential class act in Listed company. |
3/1 |
|
5th 6 (3) |
12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Ran respectably when bidding for a second win in the Lennox (Group 2) at Goodwood but wasn't at his best last time and has lacked consistency this year; wears an undesirable badge, being the contender who has the longest losing sequence. |
14/1 |
|
6th 5 (7) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Ran as well as he's ever done when second in this race 12 months ago, and he was a creditable third in Group 2 at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good) last time; solid credentials and unlikely to be far away. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Group 2 winner in 2024 and has a piece of Group 1 form; not quite at best in an inconsistent 2026 season but drops back in class off an attractive mark and is 2-2 in 7f handicaps (during progressive early phase). |
20/1 |
|
7th 4 (2) |
28th Jul 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Still useful but has failed to back up the form of his Irish Group 2 success two years ago and finished behind some of today's rivals in last three outings; losing sequence looks set to be extended. |
20/1 |
|
7th 8 (11) |
27th Jun 2026 Standard To Slow 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Won a Group 2 in Ireland in July 2024; not added to that success since but he has run well in two of his three starts this time round, latterly finishing third of eight in a Group 3 at Epsom (7f, good to soft); drops in trip for his AW debut. |

6th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Has made the frame several times at Group level since a C&D Listed win 15 months ago; not a betting proposition on account of his 1-17 record in stakes races. |
12/1 |
|
4th 2 (6) |
27th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
Comes from off the pace; has made the frame several times at Group level since his Listed win 13 months ago; not disgraced at Epsom most recently, especially considering the race panned out unfavourably; however, chance again partly depends on whether the cards drop right. |
16/1 |
|
4th 3 (5) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Short-headed in a Group 2 at Meydan (7f, good) in January but he needs a bigger performance if he's to take this and he hasn't been at the top of his game on his three starts since, most recently at the Curragh. |

12th Sep 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 6y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Inconsistent and broadly not at his best this season, only fifth in Newbury Group 2 most recently; outgunned by Qirat at York in June; however, he's one of the strongest contenders on peak form, namely 2025 hat-trick that culminated in Group 1 win at York (7f, good to firm). |
11/2 |
|
5th 2 (4) |
15th Aug 2026 Good To Firm 0m 7f 0y Class 1 |
9st 8lb |
7f wins include the Group 1 City Of York Stakes last summer; not quite at his best this year, although a sixth in the Sussex Stakes at Goodwood last month (80-1) was no disgrace; back down in grade and returns to his optimum distance so should be thereabouts. |
3/1 |
|
6th 3 (2) |
29th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 10lb |
Proved somewhat resurgent with second-place finish behind Qirat over 7f at York last time, the C&D of his Group 1 success last August; however, faces a stiffer assignment back up in trip/class and possibly isn't crying out for this return to 1m, despite being a distance winner. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Ex-French performer won three Group 3s for Andre Fabre, all over 1m on rain-softened ground; not disgraced on debut for this stable on debut at Leopardstown (1m, good) but disappointed dropped back to 7f in Epsom Group 3 latest on good to soft ground; obvious chance on ratings here and preferred by McMonagle, but would surely prefer softer ground. |
6/4 |
|
6th 1 (7) |
6th Jun 2026 Good To Soft 0m 7f 3y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Front-runner who won three Group 3s in France for Andre Fabre (1m, testing ground) and was a very close fourth in the Group 1 Prix du Moulin at Longchamp (1m, good to soft) last September; below-par fourth on stable debut at Leopardstown (1m, good; Listed) four weeks ago but may have needed the run; of interest if rediscovering his best French form. |

16th Sep 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Second in this last year (soft) and he reappeared with a 50-1 Listed third at Haydock (7f, good) in May; however, he's finished down the field on his four outings since and needs to turn things around. |
40/1 |
|
8th 1 (3) |
5th Sep 2026 Soft 0m 7f 212y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Winning touch has deserted him since taking back-to-back novices in the spring of 2024; has run some good races during the losing sequence and testing ground won't hold him back, but even if right on his game these weights are unfavourable. |
25/1 |
|
11th 5 (16) |
4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
Useful but he is 0-12 since a Doncaster novice double in spring 2024 and not particularly solid on 2026 form; on a difficult mark returned to handicap level and isn't sure to uphold a consistent Sandown record. |

3rd Oct 2026 Good 0m 7f 0y Class 2 |

Creditable fourth over C&D in this year's Victoria Cup but his subsequent form, comprising mostly duck eggs, reads poorly by comparison; major resurgence is required. |
66/1 |
|
10th 2 (1) |
5th Sep 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 13lb |
Couldn't set your watch by him but he's a smart performer on his good days, as when beating 21 rivals at Doncaster (6f, heavy) last November; finished fourth in the Victoria Cup here (7f, good) in May, and he is 5lb lower today, but there hasn't been much to cheer since then. |
33/1 |
|
19th 3 (6) |
22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
Inconsistent but he is a smart performer, as when beating his 21 rivals at Doncaster last November (6f, heavy); raced exclusively at 7f since, with mixed results, but this mark isn't beyond him and a big run could be on the cards back down in distance. |
