Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1st 2 (4) | 31st Jul 2025 Good 1m 3f 218y Class 1 | 9st 3lb | Improving colt who has strong handicap form this term and is 2-2 since upped to 1m4f, last time winning at Royal Ascot (good to firm) where he beat the subsequent Irish Derby runner-up; very much a Group performer in the making and commands major respect upped further in class. | 6/5F |
| 1st 8 (20) | 19th Jun 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 211y Class 2 | 9st 4lb | Favourite for his two handicaps this season, both on good to firm and the win was never in doubt through the last 3f at York last time on his step up to 1m4f; 8lb rise demands more from him but he was impressive at York and the form has been boosted; Group 1 King George entry here next month. | 3/1F |
| 1st 5 (8) | 15th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 3f 188y Class 3 | 8st 12lb | Edged it in the second of two very close finishes over about 1m on AW in December; failed to justify 11-10 favouritism in seven-runner handicap at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) on reappearance 11 days ago but kept edging closer to go down by a length and 1m4f now seems plausible. | 5/2F |
| 3rd 3 (6) | 4th May 2025 Good To Firm 1m 2f 0y Class 3 | 9st 7lb | steadied start, held up in last, nudged along over 3f out, headway and ridden over 1f out, went third final furlong, stayed on | 11/10F |
| 1st 7 (4) | 27th Dec 2024 Standard 1m 0f 142y Class 4 | 9st 7lb | visibility reduced by fog, midfield, switched right and bit short of room over 1f out, went second inside final 110yds, ran on well and led post | 7/4 |
