7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 4lb |
Yarmouth winner who was gelded after disappointing in the Chesham at Royal Ascot; next seen when going down narrowly in a big-field nursery at York (7f, good to firm; very competitive); saw that race out well and stepping up to 1m can only benefit him. |
2/1 |
7th 13 (15) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 0m 6f 0y Class 1 |
9st 2lb |
Raced alone on the near side when fine fourth in this last year (good) and this front-runner has gone close in 6f Group 1s the last twice, namely the Jubilee (good to firm) and the July Cup (good); seems versatile ground-wise; another bold bid can be expected; firmly in calculations. |
5/1 |
14th 1 (6) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 12lb |
Last nine races were Group events; career best winning a Group 3 at Newbury (1m4f, soft) on 2023 reappearance and second in Group 2 at Deauville (upped to 1m7f, very soft) last August was a major revival; absent since and needs to return at his peak but he's not fully exposed as a stayer. |
10/1 |
1st 6 (8) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 6f 1y Class 2 |
9st 6lb |
First three starts, including a soft-ground win, made him look a promising sort moving into handicaps and he duly finished third of 16 in the Melrose at York (1m6f, good to firm) two weeks ago, staying on from mid-division; up 3lb but open to further progress and he's on the shortlist. |
5/2 |
1st 2 (7) |
7th Sep 2024 Good To Soft 1m 0f 37y Class 1 |
9st 5lb |
Having previously done most of his racing in Group/Listed contests, he's tackled hot 1m handicaps and run highly creditably in defeat (on various ground); has been competitive in Group 3 races in the past and he could have a part to play now back in his grade. |
4/1 |
