Horse Form Profile
| Place / No / Draw | Date / Going / Distance / Class | Time + Course Horse + Weight Jockey / Trainer | Verdict | Starting price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2nd 1 (4) | 28th May 2026 Good 2m 0f 50y Class 1 | 9st 9lb | Won this in 2024 and has added three more Group-race wins, the latest on reappearance in this month's Sagaro Stakes at Ascot (2m, good to firm) where he was clear with subsequent Group 1 winner Caballo De Mar; leading claims despite 5lb penalty. | 8/13F |
| 1st 2 (9) | 1st May 2026 Good To Firm 1m 7f 209y Class 1 | 9st 9lb | Headgear and Rab Havlin all starts; not straightforward but he nearly always gives his running, including at this track; he did not have the top stayers to worry about last September when winning his second Doncaster Cup and the same seems to apply today, so he's a leading player. | 5/6F |
| 2nd 2 (4) | 18th Oct 2025 Good 1m 7f 209y Class 1 | 9st 9lb | Headgear and Rab Havlin all starts; not straightforward but he nearly always gives his running and was third and second in the last two runnings of this race; he did not have the top stayers to worry about last month when winning his second Doncaster Cup and while he had the edge over third-placed Trawlerman in this 12 months ago, he's found that rival too tough to crack in their two clashes this season. | 5/2 |
| 1st 5 (5) | 12th Sep 2025 Good To Soft 2m 1f 197y Class 1 | 9st 7lb | Headgear and Rab Havlin all starts; not straightforward but he nearly always gives his running and won this race last year (good to soft; acts on any) with significantly greater authority than the 1l margin suggests, having been second in it the year before; not quite at his best when half a length in front of Sunway at Goodwood; he does not have the top stayers to worry about today and looks set for a big run in his Doncaster Cup defence. | 10/11F |
| 2nd 5 (1) | 22nd Aug 2025 Good To Firm 2m 0f 56y Class 1 | 9st 5lb | Headgear and Rab Havlin all starts; not straightforward but he took well to the visor last season and nearly always gives his running; one exception was behind Trawlerman in this year's Gold Cup at Royal Ascot, in which he was ridden much closer to the pace than usual; reverted to more patient tactics when third in the Goodwood Cup and has been bang there on both his visits to York; the same looks likely today. | 3/1 |
