Slowly away and got no run on debut at Gowran last June; showed notable promise in winning a maiden over this trip at the Curragh later that month; form well advertised by runner-up Green Impact in winning a Group 2 event at this venue; smart prospect. |

9st 3lb |
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. |

Very productive 2yo campaign culminated in narrow defeat of Delacroix, pair clear, in soft-ground Group 1 Futurity; respectable third in the Irish 2,000 Guineas (good) kept to 1m on reappearance; smart colt but there are mixed messages in his pedigree with regard to this new trip. |

Finished midfield in French and German Oaks in 2024; Listed winner at Cork for Paddy Twomey 12 months ago; below that form when fifth in Munster Oaks last June; never showed with a chance over 1m here on stable/seasonal debut; unlikely to feature |

Killarney maiden winner touched off on seasonal return in handicap at the Curragh (1m, sft-hvy) off 80; beaten 3l off 4lb higher at Limerick in first-time cheekpieces (discarded) 10 days ago; this looks too ambitious. |

5th May 2026 Yielding 1m 1f 100y |
9st 5lb |
Poor strike-rate of 1-18 but has run plenty of solid races in defeat, including in Listed company; fine effort on seasonal return when 3l behind Beset in Listed heat at Naas (10.5f, soft); not beaten far when fifth of 12 in Longchamp Listed race latest (10.5f, gd-sft); place chance but overlooked by McMonagle. |
4/1 |

2nd 8 (3) |
22nd Mar 2026 Soft To Heavy 1m 2f 125y |
9st 2lb |
Won a 1m4f maiden in France on heavy at three; placed at Listed and Group 3 level for this stable in 2025; may have been feeling the effects of a busy campaign when below her best on final two outings; appears held by stablemate Beset on running in 1m4f event at this venue and the Curragh. |

9st 5lb |
Got to within 0.5l of the top class Minnie Hauk on debut at Leopardstown in 2024 (1m, soft); off the mark on her fourth and final start of 2025 in a 1m2f Curragh maiden (yld-sft); rated 88 and this looks too big an ask on her seasonal return. |
22/1 |

27th Sep 2025 Yielding 1m 2f 0y |
9st 3lb |
Got to within half a length of top-class Minnie Hauk on her debut but was a long way behind the same filly when 33-1 for the Irish Oaks; only 2-1 back in a maiden at Navan (1m2f, good) and didn't get a clear shot at that after hitting traffic (just behind Down To Business); can be given another chance. |

9st 2lb |
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 last month's reappearance at Cork, which is disconcerting, but she's a leading player if leaving that performance behind in first-time cheekpieces. |

7th May 2026 Good 1m 2f 70y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Group 1 entry at 1m, 1m2f and 1m4f, as is his stablemate Constitution River (also by Wootton Bassett); can't match his form, having won on debut but come up short in three Group 3s over 6.5f to just over 7f; joint favourite at Leopardstown (7f, good to yielding) on reappearance but slowly away and never showed with any chance; it's possible that 1m2f will see him in a different light but Constitution River looks the stable first string. |
9/1 |

12th Apr 2026 Good To Yielding 0m 7f 42y |
9st 5lb |
Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut over 6f at the Curragh; did not look entirely straightforward (hung right) when beaten by a filly, Suzie Songs, in the Anglesey Stakes; doubts raised by 6l Group 3 defeat over C&D in July; however, Ryan Moore sticks with him in apparent preference to the higher-rated Dorset. |

Won maiden here on debut (7f, good); ran with real credit in Group 2s here on his next two starts over 7f (good) and 1m (good); stayed on well for fourth on seasonal return in Leopardstown Group 3 (behind Redemption Road, ahead of Iron Lily); return to 1m a plus and he's a leading contender. |

9st 2lb |
Camelot colt; maiden winner at Glorious Goodwood and best form when staying on from off the pace to take fourth in Group 1 Criterium de Saint-Cloud (1m2f, very soft) in October; shaped as if he needed the race when fourth of seven from the back in Listed event at Newmarket (1m1f, good) on return, and this is a different trip, so it's far too early to write him off. |

Ballydoyle colt who gained his maiden win at Glorious Goodwood then had a couple of French assignments, finishing fifth in a valuable conditions race at Longchamp (form has substance) and good fourth in the Criterium de Saint-Cloud (1m2f Group 1); leading player on the figures. |

Looked well suited by 7f when winning twice at two; faced a stiff task when the outsider of four in a conditions race at Cork on seasonal debut; second-best of the Joseph O'Brien squad on official figures, 3lb ahead of Perisher. |

4th 1 (1) |
24th Apr 2026 Yielding 1m 2f 100y |
9st 12lb |
Both wins last year came at 7f, in Down Royal maiden (good) and needed every yard when getting up late in Roscommon winners contest on soft, having previously finished third in very valuable Naas auction contest over inadequate 6f; didn't land a blow in Goffs Million (Curragh) final start and takes a step up in trip here on seasonal return from a yard in hot form; rider's claim negates his double penalty. |
