2nd 11 (16) |
21st Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Grade 1 winner in native Japan (6f, good to firm) in March then second in 6f Group 1 at Sha Tin; no match for the winner but that was Ka Ying Rising, the best sprinter in the world; has finished strongly when racing round a bend in those races, which suggests this straight course will suit, and star jockey Joao Moreira has winning experience at Ascot; leading claims. |
9/2 |

10th 4 (7) |
12th Aug 2023 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 2 |
9st 8lb |
The winner of three of his six starts, coming from well back to score at Newcastle six weeks ago (6f, AW); this is a deeper race but the manner of that success marked him down as one who could make his mark in stronger company; still looks feasibly treated despite the 4lb rise. |
5/1 |

2nd 4 (4) |
12th Aug 2023 Soft 0m 7f 213y Class 2 |
9st 10lb |
took keen hold, led at steady pace, went clear over 1f out, reduced lead inside final furlong, headed final stride |
16/1 |

5th 3 (11) |
12th Aug 2023 Soft 1m 3f 211y Class 2 |
9st 9lb |
Won a valuable C&D handicap last September; again good to soft when this very lightly raced 4yo reappeared four weeks ago with a close second of seven back over C&D; up 3lb but on the shortlist. |
5/2 |

4th 8 (6) |
12th Aug 2023 Soft 1m 7f 209y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
Started the British season for new stable with good runs in the Chester Cup, at Haydock and Royal Ascot; had form earlier in his career with cheekpieces but tailed off in them in the Northumberland Plate (reportedly struck into) and at Goodwood on last two outings and they are dispensed with now; his big Chester run was on soft but trainer blamed tacky ground for last week's performance; big shout if surging back to form. |
10/1 |
