Goodwood maiden winner on debut last August (7f, good to soft); creditable run in Group 1 at Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; moderate efforts first two runs this term; back on song when winning a 1m1f Listed race at Navan; doubts raised by two subsequent runs; 1 3/4l behind Cowardofthecounty in the 1m1f Meld Stakes here. |

Goodwood maiden winner on debut last August (7f, good to soft); creditable run in Group 1 at Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; moderate efforts first two runs this term; back on song when winning a 1m1f Listed race at Navan (Geryon promoted to second); lost a lot of ground at the start when failing to confirm form with Geryon at the Curragh last time. |

Goodwood maiden winner on debut last August (7f, gd-sft); creditable run in Group 1 at Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; moderate efforts first two runs this term, but back on song when in front of Hotazhell and Geryon in Listed contest at Navan three weeks ago; needs to improve further to beat Purview, but solid place claims if backing up that last run. |

22nd Aug 2026 Good To Soft 1m 0f 177y Class 1 |
9st 3lb |
3yo who has got better with each run this season and impressed in the Group 3 Meld at Leopardstown (1m1f, good) last month before finishing second in the Group 3 Gordon at Glorious Goodwood (1m4f, good to firm) under a 3lb penalty (same today); runner-up in a Group 2 on yielding to soft last September; this versatile sort could be in the mix back down in trip. |
11/2 |

2nd 1 (7) |
30th Jul 2026 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 |
9st 6lb |
Ran in two Group 2s as 2yo and progressive at Listed/Group 3 levels this season, winning well at Leopardstown (1m1f, good) two weeks ago when he reverted to front-running; probably stayed 1m2f on penultimate start, without shouting that he's a 1m4f horse. |
4/1 |

1st 5 (4) |
16th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |

Smart Curragh form at two; beat top-class filly Kensington Lane on debut and then finished second in Group 2 races won by Constitution River and Hawk Mountain; 2026 form includes links to top-class performers Thesecretadversary and Causeway; a promoted second behind Isaac Newton in a 1m1f Listed event at Navan; reversed form with that rival on latest. |

28th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Group 1 winner as a 2yo; came up dry in 3yo season but plenty of good runs in defeat, including when placing in the 2000 Guineas here (1m, good); has a tendency to race keenly at times, as he did when beaten a nose dropped to Listed company on seasonal return at Navan (1m1f, good), splitting Isaac Newton and Geryon; cheekpieces look a good addition and he should go well again. |
100/30 |
|
3rd 3 (7) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |
9st 9lb |
Ended his 2yo campaign with a Group 1 win, beating Delacroix in the William Hill Futurity; no wins last year, but managed a fine third in the Irish 2,000 Guineas and a fair fourth in the Irish Champion Stakes (1m2f); too keen when attempting 1m4f in the Arc; can win races at four and this appeals as a suitable starting point if his fitness holds up. |

Beat Delacroix in last year's Futurity at Doncaster; has failed to make a major impact this season, including behind Delacroix in the Eclipse; did not have much luck in running before staying on late in the Saratoga Derby six weeks ago; up against it. |

Last season's best performances came in Group 1s, runner-up in the Irish Oaks (1m4f, good) and close fourth in the Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft), just behind One Look; well held by Estrange on Ascot running; this season's form is unconvincing; visored now. |

Last season's best performances came in Group 1s when runner-up in the Irish Oaks at the Curragh (1m4f, good) and very close fourth in the Prix de l'Opera at Longchamp (1m2f, very soft); flopped on reappearance at Cork; Haydock third was reassuring; however, best at 1m2f-1m4f. |

4th Jul 2026 Good 1m 1f 209y Class 1 |
8st 13lb |
Capable of useful form but is well down the pecking order at Ballydoyle and 0-6 since debut win; never-dangerous 11th of 30, fitted with cheekpieces, in Royal Ascot handicap (1m) most recently; headgear retained; clear bottom of this pack on ratings and is possibly in here as pacemaker for his two stablemates. |
100/1 |

11th 6 (22) |
18th Jun 2026 Good To Firm 1m 0f 0y Class 2 |
9st 5lb |
All six runs on good or good to yielding ground; runner-up in small-field Group 3s last season and returned to something like that level when beaten 3l (held up) in a competitive 1m1f Listed race at Navan; however, when that was only 11 days ago this hardly smacks of a masterplan; sports headgear for the first time. |
12/1 |

5th 9 (5) |
7th Jun 2026 Good 1m 1f 0y |

Placed in two small-field Group 3 races at two; question to answer on this year's form; held by Geryon on Leopardstown running; last of five behind Constitution River in the Dee Stakes; stablemate Isaac Newton is more appealing. |

Finished midfield in French and German Oaks in 2024; Listed winner at Cork (1m4f, good) for Paddy Twomey on Irish debut; failed to build on that; three moderate runs this season but not beaten far in 1m1f Navan Listed 12 days ago in first-time blinkers; they are replaced with cheekpieces now. |

7f maiden winner at two, beating the high-class Green Impact; not seen again last year after a promising fourth in an early-season 7f Group 3 event at Leopardstown; reappeared in a 1m1f Listed race at Navan in June; would have finished closer but for clipping heels and stumbling around a furlong down; suited by the race conditions. |

Nicely treated by race conditions and has run good races in second in his last two starts; beaten just a neck in a premier handicap at the Curragh in June (1m1f, good); failed to justify 11-10 favouritism at Navan last time when going down by a head; leading chance again. |

Dual 2yo winner went closest to adding to that score when narrowly denied last month in 16-runner Curragh premier handicap, staying on strongly for pressure behind a strong favourite over 1m1f (good); longer trip here should suit and big player. |
