"He was always a hardy horse and won the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf on his final start of the season. When he finished second in the Dewhurst, Christophe made the decision to take him back after he jumped, and was caught in the middle of two. When he came back, they all came back and there ended up being no pace. We felt there was more to come from him after that and he went and won in America, coasting around and not doing a lot when he got there. I wouldn't be afraid to let him flow because he isn't a keen horse but has a long stride and a big action. He's being trained for a Guineas. Ryan rode him at the Curragh on Sunday and he had it in his head he could be one for Newmarket. But we'll see how Puerto Rico and Albert Einstein are over the next few weeks. 31-03-26"

"He's very good. He won his last two races last year, including the Futurity at the Curragh, but then had a mishap and missed the rest of the season. Roger [Quinlan] was very happy with him at the Curragh on Sunday. He could go the French Derby route. 31-03-26"

"He won three last year, including the Futurity Trophy at Doncaster. He went very well at the Curragh on Sunday. Dean [Gallagher] rode him and he was very happy with him. Ryan worked him during the week too and was very happy. He'll be trained for Epsom or France, but listening to the lads he could go for the French Derby and have a trial for it. He'd be very comfortable at a mile and a quarter and is a very good horse. 31-03-26"
"He won twice last year, including a Group 2 at Leopardstown by five lengths, before finishing third in the Futurity Trophy on heavy ground. He went very well at the Curragh on Sunday and he could be a second-string in the Epsom Derby. He looks like an Epsom horse - he's a great mover and that course will probably suit him. He could go to the Leopardstown trial, to York or Lingfield. It depends on how he comes out of his work on Sunday. We were surprised by the way he went through the ground and he finished very strong. He's obviously a very classy horse. 31-03-26"

"He had some very good runs last year over seven furlongs, finishing second in the Superlative and Acomb Stakes before a third in the National Stakes. We might go up in trip with him and he could turn into a nice horse going a mile and a quarter. 31-03-26"
How do odds work?The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
