Richard Hughes Stable Tour

Form profile

Winner of one of his 11 starts and currently rated 77. Finished fifth, beaten two and three-quarter lengths, behind Rathgar at Newbury (1m 2f) on Saturday.

Trainer says

He ran a good race at Newbury on Saturday and is horse that has improved. He should find a little race somewhere shortly.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 10 starts and currently rated 95. Finished sixth, beaten five and three-quarter lengths, behind Enemy in a 2m handicap at Lingfield in February when trained by Dermot Weld.

Trainer says

He is a nice horse that we only got a few months ago. We are aiming him for the Chester Cup. He has been pleasing us in his work at home, and hopefully he stays the two miles and two and half furlongs around Chester.

Form profile

Winner of nine of his 39 starts and currently rated 94. Made a winning reappearance at Chelmsford (6f) in January, when scoring by a length and a quarter over Twilight Fun, and followed up with a length-and-a-quarter success over Addarella at Wolverhampton (6f) in March off a mark of 87. Subsequently produced another solid effort to finish runner-up, beaten a length and three-quarters, to Tuco Salamanca in a 6f handicap at Kempton later that same month off a mark of 93.

Trainer says

Knebworth has done well for us, winning his first two this year before finishing runner-up at Kempton. I don’t know if he’s suddenly improving as a six-year-old or whether it’s just the all-weather. We will run out of all-weather races now as he is rated too high, so we will now run on soft ground on the turf over six furlongs.

Form profile

Winner of four of his 39 starts and currently rated 77. Best effort this term came on his reappearance at Lingfield (5f) in February when finishing runner-up, beaten three quarters of a length, to Fidelius off a mark of 78.

Trainer says

He goes to Epsom next week and the plan is to run him in the Dash on Derby Day. He’s a lovely horse, winning three times for us last year.

Form profile

Winner of three of her nine starts and currently rated 108. Gained her latest success in the Group 3 Summer Stakes at York (6f) in July when beating Night Eyes by a length and a half.

Trainer says

She is a really good filly, and she goes for a Listed race on Guineas weekend. She was fourth in the Group 1 Commonwealth Cup last year and then won the Group 3 Summer Stakes at York. She has been working really well, and she is a better filly now.

Form profile

Winner of two of his 12 starts and currently rated 75. Added to his tally when beating King’s Hand by a length at Lingfield (1m 2f) in February off a mark of 72.

Trainer says

There is a mile-and-a-quarter race in him, but he likes some cut in the ground.

Form profile

Winner of seven of his 46 starts and currently rated 82 on the All-Weather and 74 on turf. Best effort recently came when runner-up, beaten a length, to Fidelius at Lingfield (5f) in March off a mark of 83.

Trainer says

He is well handicapped on the grass, and he will go for a race at Bath soon. He is five-furlong horse.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 16 starts and currently rated 94. Finished 11th of 25, beaten 14½ lengths, behind Ribee in the Irish Lincolnshire Handicap at the Curragh (1m) in March off a mark of 95 before a much better effort in the Spring Cup at Newbury (1m) last Saturday when finishing third, beaten a length, behind Linwood.

Trainer says

The ground was bottomless in Ireland when he contested the Irish Lincoln on his return, but he was seen to much better effect in the Spring Cup at Newbury on Saturday when finishing a good third. He is going to land a big handicap somewhere this season.

Form profile

Winner of one of her four starts and currently rated 108. Made an impressive debut at Haydock (6f) in July when scoring by 12 lengths over Lady Gormire and proved that effort was no fluke when finishing runner-up, beaten a length, to Royal Fixation in the Group 2 Lowther Stakes at York (6f) in August. Subsequently finished fourth, beaten two and a quarter lengths, behind True Love in the Group 1 Cheveley Park Stakes at Newmarket (6f) in September and put up another cracking effort on her reappearance in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket (7f) last Wednesday to finish runner-up, beaten a neck, to Azleet.

Trainer says

We were gutted not to win the Nell Gwyn at Newmarket last week, as the filly who was dropped out last came and beat us. She fought off what looked like all the dangers and deserved to win given the way she races - she was very tough. She will go for the French Guineas now.

Form profile

Winner of one of his five starts and currently rated 80. Off the mark on his reappearance in a 1m novice at Lingfield in February, when scoring by four and a quarter lengths over Kokushoku, before finishing sixth, beaten four and a quarter lengths, behind Gatehouse in a 1m handicap at Southwell earlier this month off a mark of 81.

Trainer says

He disappointed at Southwell earlier this month after winning nicely at Lingfield on his reappearance, but we have found out why since. He will be a nice horse going a mile and a quarter.

Form profile

Winner of two of her six starts and currently rated 75. Finished seventh of eight, beaten eight lengths, behind Lion Of Mali on her reappearance at Kempton (7f) in March off her current mark.

Trainer says

She disappointed on her return at Kempton, but this is a filly we think is on the up. We will find a race for her soon - she will be good at around seven furlongs.

Form profile

Placed in all three starts to date. Finished runner-up, beaten three lengths, to Lara Antipova in a 6f fillies’ maiden at Lingfield last week.

Trainer says

She doesn’t seem to be running the way she works at home, but maybe she will be better on grass. We will have to see.

Form profile

Placed in three of his four starts and currently rated 74. Finished third, beaten half a length, behind Unionville on his reappearance in a 6f maiden at Chelmsford in February.

Trainer says

He is a winner waiting to happen, and I am just trying to find a race for him at the moment. Six furlongs will be his trip, as I don’t think he will get seven.

Form profile

Finished fifth, beaten five lengths, behind Zain Primus in a 6f novice at Kempton earlier this month.

Trainer says

He ran well first time out but needed the run badly. He will be entered soon in a novice, and he will go on the all-weather and the grass.

Form profile

Winner of one of his two starts to date. Off the mark on his reappearance in a 1m maiden at Kempton in February when beating Ablon by a length and three-quarters.

Trainer says

He is a nice horse who will be entered at Goodwood and Sandown later this week. He is a horse who will get a trip.

Form profile

Winner of two of her seven starts and currently rated 72. Landed a 6f fillies’ maiden at Chelmsford in June, when scoring by two and a quarter lengths over Azleet, and followed up with a head victory over Spacewoman in a 6f novice at Salisbury later that same month.

Trainer says

She will win on firm ground in the summertime. The ground couldn’t be hard enough for her.

Form profile

Winner of both starts and currently rated 89. Made a winning debut in a 7f novice at Ayr in September, when scoring by two lengths over Hasbro Market, and followed up with a length-and-a-half success over Sintra in a similar event at Wolverhampton (1m ½f) in March.

Trainer says

With a bit of luck, he will go for the Esher Cup at Sandown on Friday. He has won on soft and on the all-weather, and so probably wouldn’t like firm ground too much, but we don’t know at this stage - he hasn’t been tried on it.

Form profile

Place in three of her seven starts and currently rated 69. Finished third, beaten three quarters of a length, behind Mighty Vega on her reappearance at Lingfield (7f) in March off a mark of 68.

Trainer says

She kept fluffing her lines in the stalls, so we did a bit of work with her in the stalls. She seems to have got over that now and ran a blinder on her return at Lingfield. I will enter her at Leicester or Southwell in a couple of weeks’ time.

Form profile

Winner of one of her two starts. Made a winning debut at Deauville (7f) in August, when short-heading Zaravina, and subsequently finished fourth, beaten two and three-quarter lengths, behind Aylin in the Group 2 May Hill Stakes at Doncaster (1m) in September.

Trainer says

Rose Ghaiyyath will run in the 1000 Guineas. She’s a good filly and it’s going to be a long year for her, so we thought we would run her straight in the Guineas. She did little wrong in her two starts last year and will be ready for the Guineas.

Form profile

Finished third, beaten two and a quarter lengths, behind Montague Menace on his debut at Lingfield (7f) in March and subsequently finished last of nine, beaten 14¾ lengths, behind Afton Down at Wolverhampton (6f) last Friday.

Trainer says

He had a bad draw and was coming back a furlong at Wolverhampton on Friday, and it just didn’t happen for him. He is not a bad little horse, and he is much better than he showed on Friday.

Form profile

Winner of one of his two starts and currently rated 84. Short-headed Brigid’s Well in a 1m novice at Kempton in September and subsequently finished runner-up, beaten four and a quarter lengths, to Penny Tome in a similar event at Southwell (1m) in March.

Trainer says

See Blue ran a little bit keen last time, but he is a nice horse in the making. I don’t think he will stay much further than a mile, though.

Form profile

Winner of two of his eight starts and currently rated 76. Added to his tally when scoring by a neck over Hardy’s Hero at Newmarket (7f) last week.

Trainer says

He is a grand little horse, and we were delighted with his win at Newmarket last week. He will probably go for a seven-furlong handicap at Goodwood next.

Form profile

Winner of one of his two starts and currently rated 85. Made a winning debut at Southwell (7f) in October, when scoring by three and three-quarter lengths over Medyg, and made a promising return at Kempton (1m) earlier this month when finishing runner-up, beaten a length and three-quarters, to Balzac.

Trainer says

He goes for the Blue Riband Trial at Epsom. He would have needed the run at Kempton and has improved since, and he should be suited by the longer trip at Epsom.

Form profile

Finished third, beaten two and a half lengths, behind Magic Effort in a 5f fillies’ maiden at Newmarket on Wednesday.

Trainer says

She ran a blinder at Newmarket last week and is a filly that will probably want six furlongs.

Form profile

Finished fifth, beaten two and a half lengths, behind Lover Girl in a 5f fillies’ maiden at Wolverhampton earlier this month.

Trainer says

She got left behind at Wolverhampton and then flew home - she is a winner waiting to happen.

Form profile

Finished runner-up, beaten a head, to Blessed Voyager in a 5f maiden at Newbury last Friday.

Trainer says

He is a nice colt by Mehmas that ran a blinder at Newbury on Friday. He should soon be going one better.

Form profile

Unraced

Trainer says

She is a filly out of Fig Roll, who I rode to win the Listed Empress Stakes at Newmarket. She is ready to run and is a very fast filly.

Form profile

Made a winning debut at Wolverhampton (5f) earlier this month when scoring by two and three-quarter lengths over Quantum Swift.

Trainer says

He will go to Ascot for a conditions race on May 1st. He delighted us when winning on his debut at Wolverhampton, and hopefully he can step forward for that run.
