20/6/13 Ascot 3.45
Progressing along the right lines, gaining third career win in listed event here (1¾m) in October. Shaped well on return and worth a try at this trip, so could outrun his odds.
Non runner!
20/6/13 Ascot 4.25
Well-related colt who was impressive when scoring at Salisbury in October. Resumed progress in a first-time hood to get the better of Capo Rosso at Haydock (7f) last month, and may improve again.
Unplaced.
20/6/13 Ascot 5.35
Sole career success came in 7f Thirsk nursery for Kevin Ryan last term. Placed 3 times for new yard this term but ran as if amiss at York last week and looks an outsider here.
Unplaced.
Hampered start, in rear, under pressure over 2f out, effort when not clear run and hampered just over 1f out, eased when no impression final 110yds (op 18/1)
20/6/13 Ascot 5.35
Took 6 attempts to get off the mark but that's only because he contested some hot maidens. Held up in race not run to suit such tactics when fifth on 1¼m Epsom handicap bow and worth try at 1½m.
2nd.
Midfield, ridden and outpaced 3f out, lost place, headway on outer over 1f out, ran on inside final furlong, going on at finish
20/6/13 Warwick 3.30
Sister to connections' smart 6f winner Bounty Box. Signs of ability in maidens last year, and lot to like about her opening handicap second at Yarmouth 2 weeks ago. Remains with potential.
3rd.
Pulled hard and prominent, tracked leader 4f out, ridden and hung left over 1f out, no extra inside final furlong (op 6/4 tchd 15/8)
21/6/13 Ascot 3.05
Done little wrong since debut, improving again when winning Derrinstown Trial at Leopardstown. Good fourth in Derby since and very much sets the standard.
2nd.
Chased leader until led 6f out, gradually increased gallop from 4f out, ridden and went clear entering final 2f, driven entering final furlong, headed and no extra final 75yds (tchd Evens)
21/6/13 Ascot 3.05
Maiden winner at 2, and much improved when just denied by Windhoek in valuable sales race at Newmarket on return. Disappointed in Dante at York next time but better than that.
Unplaced
Havana Beat
21/6/13 Ascot 3.05
Plenty of promise in 2 Sandown maidens last year, winning in September, and good fourth in sales race at Newmarket on return. Respectable third of 4 in Chester Vase since but more needed.
unplaced
Held up in touch in last trio, dropped to rear over 3f out, ridden and outpaced over 2f out, no threat to leaders but plugged on past beaten horses final furlong
21/6/13 Ascot 3.05
From a good family, and impressed when winning maiden at Leicester at 2 yrs. Good second in handicaps at Newmarket and Newbury both starts this term and respected despite hike in grade.
Winner
26/5/13 Curragh 3.35
unplaced.
Chased leaders on outer, close 5th halfway, ridden in 3rd entering final furlong and soon no extra under pressure, kept on same pace and dropped to 4th close home (op 5-1)
21/6/13 Ascot 3.45
Looked smart at 2 yrs, beating the colts in Group 3 at Leopardstown. Ran well when fourth in Irish 1000 Guineas on return and expected to be sharper here.
Unplaced
Raced on inner and tracked leaders, went 2nd over 2f out, led under 2f out, headed over 1f out, no extra final 100yds (op 5/1 tchd 4/1)
22/6/13 Ascot 3.45
Unbeaten at 2, following up Lowther Stakes win when again making all in Cheveley Park at Newmarket. Stamina stretched over 7f on return and respected now back sprinting.
Unplaced
Restless in stalls, steadied start, held up in rear, headway in midfield, effort and driven well over 1f out, edged right and no impression final furlong (tchd 14/1)
22/6/13 Ascot 5.00
From prolific family and dotted up in 10.4f York handicap on reappearance. Just as effective at this longer trip and will go on progressing.
Non Runner
22/6/13 Ascot 3.45
Progressive when winning 2 listed races last summer. Bit disappointing in Group 2 over C&D in October but back on track when third in Group 3 at the Curragh on return. Still lightly raced.
Unplaced
Awkward leaving stalls and slowly away, took keen hold, held up in touch in midfield, ridden and effort 2f out, no impression but kept on inside final furlong, no threat to leaders (tchd 12-1)
24/6/13 Windsor 8.10
Some strong form to his name last year, winning 6f maiden at Yarmouth. May have needed return at Ascot, though harder to excuse his finishing effort at Haydock (behind Robot Boy).
Unplaced
Tracked leader, upsides from halfway and appeared to be going well, shaken up and led briefly over 1f out, folded tamely after (op 8/1 tchd 11/2)
24/6/13 Windsor 8.10
Progressed well in maidens, winning on return at Doncaster (5f) in April and lot to like about how he shaped when runner-up in a strong-looking 6f handicap at Haydock recently. Big player.
Winner
Held up in 5th and off the pace, pulled out over 2f out, good progress after to lead just over 1f out, ridden and stayed on well (tchd 7/4)
26/6/13 Salisbury 4.55
Good fourth on reappearance when seeming to find 1m stretching her stamina. Not matched it in 2 runs since and fitting of blinkers needs to have a positive effect.
Unplaced
Raced keenly, tracked leader, led after 1f, ridden, edged off far rails and headed just over 1f out, weakened
28/6/13 Chester 9.00
Won 6f maiden at Ayr at 2 yrs and good efforts in defeat in 7f handicaps this term, unable to quicken in blinkers at Haydock. Still may be capable of better.
3rd
29/6/13 Curragh 4.45
Less exposed than many sprinters and followed his Ripon win at the start of the month with a good second to Harrison George (winner again since) at Nottingham. Could take some pegging back.
4th
29/6/13 Curragh 6.30
Closely related to the high-class stayer Saddler's Rock. Not beaten far when third in the Sandown Classic Trial on return and filled the same position in the Derby 4 weeks ago. Place claim again.
2nd
Held up, progress from over 4f out, took closer order in 5th into straight, soon ridden and closed into 2nd inside final furlong, kept on same pace without matching winner
29/6/13 Curragh 5.50
Progressive when winning 2 listed races last summer. Back on track when third in Greenlands Stakes here last month, and respectable seventh to Lethal Force at Royal Ascot last time. Respected.
Winner
Chased leaders, close 4th halfway, took closer order in 3rd over 1f out, ridden to lead on outer final 100yds and kept on well
Chester 3.55
Appreciated being stepped up to 1½m when scoring at Lingfield last season. However 3 starts for new yard this campaign haven't suggested he's a winner waiting to happen.
Winner
Held up in rear, headway to chase leaders 6f out, shaken up over 4f out, stayed on and 2nd 1f out, led last 50yds (op 13/2 tchd 7/1)
29/6/13 Newmarket 4.05
Well bred and lightly raced. Windsor maiden winner last summer and placed in handicaps both starts this year, beaten only by a progressive sort over C&D 3 weeks ago. Can go one better.
Winner
Chased leader, ridden and led well over 1f out, stayed on well inside final furlong, ridden out (op 10/3)
06/7/13 Leicester 5.05
Hasn't built on encouraging reappearance in 3 subsequent starts, raced too freely in first-time blinkers at Salisbury last time. However, claims if able to bounce back with tongue tie added here.
unplaced
Tracked leaders, went 2nd over 3f out until ridden over 1f out, stayed on same pace inside final furlong (op 7/2 tchd 3/1)
06/7/13 Sandown 14.40
Just a Hamilton maiden to his name, but still unexposed and did well to chase home Roserrow in a C&D handicap last time (Gaul Wood third). Has a 2 lb pull for that defeat, and can't be dismissed.
unplaced
Settled in 10th, driven on outer over 2f out, stayed on from over 1f out, nearest finish
06/7/13 Sandown 16.25
Progressing along the right lines, gaining third career win in listed event at Ascot (1¾m) in October. Shaped well on Newmarket return and gives the impression he has more to come at this trip.
2nd
Held up in last, smooth progress on outer 3f out to press winner just over 2f out, good battle after until wandered left and right final furlong, no extra (op 5/2)
06/7/13 Leicester 16.35
Looked green in trio of 6f maidens at 2 yrs. Gelded since latest start and appeals as the type to do better this time round, though will be of more interest when pitched into a handicap.
unplaced
Free to post, pulled hard, tracked leaders, ridden over 2f out, soon weakened (op 7/2)
09/7/13 Pontefract 5.30
Signs of ability in 7f/1m maidens last autumn and justified strong market support on return/handicap bow at Thirsk. Below that form last 2 outings, but possible he can still bounce back.
Unplaced
Chased leaders, pushed along over 3f out, outpaced over 2f out, soon well beaten (op 7/2)
11/7/13 Newmarket 3.15
Sole success came in 7f Thirsk nursery for Kevin Ryan last term, though has been placed 3 times for new yard this term. Had excuses at Royal Ascot last time, but vulnerable to progressive types.
Unplaced
11/7/13 Newmarket 3.15
Useful performer who was having just his second start in handicaps when length second of 18 to Elidor over 1½m at Royal Ascot. Drop back in trip a slight worry, but heading in right direction.
Unplaced
Held up off the pace in towards rear, ridden over 2f out, no impression until plugged on inside final furlong, never troubled leaders (tchd 15/2)
11/7/13 Newmarket 1.40
Good fourth in valuable sales race on Rowley Course in April. Just a respectable third in Chester Vase, though, and ran to similar level when fifth of 8 in King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot.
3rd
Chased leaders, going well but stuck behind horses from over 2f out, switched left and gap finally opened well inside final furlong, ran on well under pressure towards finish, unlucky
