|---|---|---|---|
| Annia Galeria | 16th July | An impressive winner on debut at Leicester over 5f. Was beginning to tire towards the end but is bound to come on for the run and should win again.
|
Yarmouth - 20/07 3rd Lingfield 11/08 - last Kempton 24/08 |
| Call To Arms | 30th June | A Mark Johnston runner who battled hard on debut at Thirsk. Will be bound to come on for the run and will soon be a winner.
|
Haydock - 07/08 3rd |
| Ishe A Lord | 16th July | Runner up on debut to Annia Galeria at Leicester. Came within a neck of the winner byt was clearly unsuited by the going (Good to Firm, Good in Places) as he changed legs several times in the closing stages. One to follow on Good going or softer. |

| Radiohead | 3rd May | Beaten favourite on debut at Newmarket, Brian Meehan's colt showed greeness at key stages in the contest but would still have not run had it been for the dogged tenacity of the winner High Spice. Will have learned a lot from the run and will come on for it. Well Radiohead duly won next time out - unfortunately at the prohibitively short odds of 1/10 A very impressive winner at Royal Ascot, recovering from bad interference to take a good quality race. Third in the Nunthorpe Stakes at York, taking on his elders for the first time - he was not disgraced |
Bath 18/05 - WON 1/10 Ascot 18/06 - WON 10/1 York - 21 /08 - third 9/2 Newmarket - 18/09 |
| Star Ruby | 24th April | Winner of a 1m 2f maiden fillies' race at Sandown coming home, along with Hidden Brief, well clear of the remainder and an impressive looking filly on her debut and sure to win more races.
|
York 15/05 - 2nd 10/3 |
| Taajub | 10th July | A promising debut over 6f at Ascot. Will come on for the run and is bound to win a race.
|
Newmarket 31/07 - Won 8/11 York 19/08 - 2nd 16/1 |

| Avonvalley | 3rd April | Making her debut in a 5f Fillies Maiden at Bath she missed the break badly. However once she got the hang of what was required she was doing her best work at the end. Will certainly improve for the run. |
Bath 28/04 2nd 4/1 Wolves 11/05 2nd 11/2 Chepstow 26/05 - won 4/7 fav |
| Captain Carey | 3rd April | Recording a second win within a week and defying a 6lb penalty. Despite a tardy start ran on well to record an easy victory. Probably still has potential for another win. Was upped in class, by two classes to Class 3, at Yarmouth which proved to be too much. Worth looking at if dropped in class again. Has been dissapointing and being given one final attempt at Class 4 Finally showed his potential when dropped back to Class 4 |
Yarmouth 14/04 - unplaced. Windsor 18/05 - 2nd 20/1 Haydock 29/05 - 5th Windsor 08/06 - won 7/2 |
| High Spice | 3rd May | Made all in a Newmarket maiden on 1000 Guineas day, holding off the late challenge of the well fancied favourite Radiohead. This was an impressive on debut and particularly eye catching is the way she battled on and stuck her head in front when challenged in the closing stages Upped in class to Listed company and she was outclassed. Needs another outing at Class 2 |
Sandown 28/05 - 6th 13/2
|
| Hidden Brief | 24th April | Runner-up to Star Ruby on 24th April, she took up the running two out and looked the likely winner until a late burst from Star Ruby denied her victory. She was also checked in the closing stages. The pair finished eight lengths clear of their rivals. Should soon go one better. |
Chester 06/05 - 4th 2/1 fav Newbury 11/06 - won 1/3 fav |
| Sabotage | 20th May | Impressive second on debut at Goodwood. Missed break and green in early stages. Penny dropped halfway and running on really well in closing stages. Stepped up to two miles at Ascot but did not stay. Worth another try at 12f
|
Leicester 01/06 - won 10/11 |
