| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2nd 3 (10) | 23rd May 2026 Good To Soft 0m 5f 0y Class 1 | 9st 6lb | Highly progressive in 2025, winning the Group 1 King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); also won on good to soft last year; it was his first run since when down the field at York recently and he may have needed it, but a dramatic transformation is required just ten days on. | 10/1 |
| 10th 3 (12) | 13th May 2026 Good 0m 6f 0y Class 1 | 9st 10lb | Has built up a good strike rate over 5f/5.5f and registered a neck success at Royal Ascot (good to firm) upped to Group 1 level when last seen; landed a handicap at this meeting 12 months ago; very progressive and has possibilities provided he's as effective back at 6f. | 22/1 |
| 1st 1 (16) | 17th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 1 | 9st 7lb | Made outstanding progress in 5f handicaps and the way he raced to the front at York (good to firm) in May showed that a switch to Group company wouldn't be at all fanciful; unable to show what he was made of behind Mgheera in a Group 2 at Haydock (5f, good) since, as a gap shut as he was about to go through it, and he remains one to keep on the right side. | 11/1 |
| 5th 2 (10) | 24th May 2025 Good 0m 5f 0y Class 1 | 9st 6lb | 2-2 this season with 5f handicap wins at Musselburgh (good to soft) and York (good to firm); did it nicely in a big field last week and this highly progressive 5yo could take the rise in grade in his stride. | 100/30 |
| 1st 4 (16) | 15th May 2025 Good To Firm 0m 5f 0y Class 2 | 9st 9lb | Made giant strides last year, notably when getting up late in the Portland at Doncaster (5.5f, good); better than ever when overcoming a troubled passage to win at Musselburgh last month (5f, good to soft); hard to believe he's not still well treated up 4lb and he looks every inch a Pattern-racer in waiting; whether today's combination of a fast 5f on quick ground will see him to best effect remains to be seen. | 7/2F |
