Winner on her debut in a bumper at Warwick in February when scoring impressively by nine lengths from Charmian’s Place but only 13th, beaten 45 lengths, to Dysart Enos in a Grade 1 Mares’ Bumper at Aintree in April. Finished runner-up, beaten two and a quarter lengths, to Southern Babylon in a mares’ maiden hurdle at Market Rasen (2m 4 1/2f) last Thursday.

Trainer says

We were pleased with her run at Market Rasen last week and she was still a bit green but stayed on well to be second. I would think she will have sharpened up plenty mentally for that run and she should be winning races.

Form profile

Winner on his debut in a bumper at Huntingdon (1m 5 1/2f) in November when beating Jaminska three and a half length and ran well in similar company in three races after particularly when third, beaten three and a quarter lengths, to Fiercely Proud in a listed bumper at Cheltenham (1m 6f) on New Year’s Day. Unseated rider at the fifth in a novices’ hurdle at Wincanton (1m 7f) this month.

Trainer says

Unfortunately, he unseated at Wincanton a couple of weeks ago. He has a few entries coming up and hopefully we can get him back in the swing of things.

Form profile

Made a winning debut in bumper at Market Rasen in May when scoring by 11 lengths from Colonel Whizz.

Trainer says

He won his only bumper at Market Rasen in the spring, and he is due to run again there on Thursday. We will see how he get on and decide whether to stay in bumpers this season or go novice hurdling.

Form profile

Winner of nine of his 25 starts and currently rated 169 over fences, At his most impressive on his reappearance in the Grade 1 Tingle Creek Chase at Sandown (1m 7 1/2f) in December when slamming Greaneteen nine lengths and best subsequent effort in four starts when failing by only a head behind Editeur Du Gite in the Grade 1 Clarence House Chase at Cheltenham (2m 1/2f) in January. Finished runner-up, beaten nine and a half lengths, to Jonbon in the Grade 2 Shloer Chase at Cheltenham (2m) on Sunday.

Trainer says

I was very happy with him at the weekend, and he jumped and travelled very well. I think, as we know, that Jonbon is a very high-class horse, but Edwardstone seems to have come out of the race in good form. Whether we take on the winner again in the Tingle Creek or step him up to two and a half in the Peterborough Chase we haven’t decided yet.

Form profile

Winner of seven of his 22 starts and currently rated 127 over hurdles. Made a winning debut for the stable when beating Hyland a length and a quarter in a handicap hurdle at Newbury (3m) in March off a mark of 122. Finished runner-up, beaten two lengths, to Young Butler in a Pertemps Qualifier at Newbury (3m) this month.

Trainer says

We only had him from halfway through last season, but he won his only start for me at Newbury. He came there a couple of weeks ago and I was pleased with his second place. He has come out of the race in good order and will either go to Haydock for the three-mile hurdle on Saturday or we will keep him for the following week.

Form profile

Winner of two of his 9 starts and currently rated 124 over fences. Finished runner-up, beaten 10 lengths, to Ginny’s Destiny in a novices’ handicap chase at Cheltenham (2m 4f) on Sunday.

Trainer says

He made a very pleasing chasing debut when finishing second at Cheltenham. We will give him a bit of time and wait for something over Christmas, and he may go to Kempton.

Form profile

Winner of two of his three bumpers and has won both his hurdle races this season. Successful at Southwell in November of last year when beating Spago five and a half lengths and followed up with a seven and a half-length victory from Alright Dai at Warwick in February. Finished 14th, beaten 21 lengths, to A Dream To Share in the the Grade 1 Champion Bumper at Cheltenham in March. Scored by 12 lengths from Flight Of Freedom in a novices’ hurdle at Hereford (2m) in October and followed up with a three-length victory from Bertie’s Ballet at Wetherby (2m) on Saturday.

Trainer says

He is two from two over hurdles and he got the job done well enough at Wetherby on Saturday. He could be a high-class horse - we always thought he was very good - and he might go to Aintree on Boxing Day for what used to be the Tolworth Hurdle.

Form profile

Winner of five of his 15 starts and currently rated 133. Returned to winning form when scoring by 25 lengths from Cornerstone Lad in a handicap chase at Wetherby (2m 3 1/2f) on Saturday off a mark of 125.

Trainer says

He surprised me with how well he won at Wetherby on Saturday, he won 25 lengths and just galloped them into the ground. The handicapper has put him up 8lb which I think is fair enough. I have just given him an entry in the December Gold Cup at Cheltenham. We will see how he comes out of it be might well run him in that he certainly wouldn’t run before then.

Form profile

Finished runner-up, beaten five lengths, to Aston Martini in a bumper at Southwell in June.

Trainer says

She ran well in her bumper at Southwell when finishing second to Aston Martini who won well over hurdles at Hereford yesterday. She got stuck in the mud in her bumper at Warwick this month and whether we give her another run in a bumper we will see. I would want to run her on decent ground.

Form profile

Winner of four of his 10 starts and currently rated 131. Made a winning reappearance in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (2m 4 1/2f) last October off a mark of 130 and ran well in decent company afterwards including when third, beaten 18 ½ lengths, to I Like To Move It in the Grade 3 Greatwood Hurdle at Cheltenham (2m 1/2f) in November off a mark of 135.

Trainer says

He has been schooling well over fences and was due to run about a fortnight ago and unfortunately got a bruised foot which has held me up a bit with him. He does have an entry at Kempton on Monday, and he should be out in the next week to ten days.

Form profile

Winner of his second bumper at Ffos Las in January when beating Alcedo three and a half lengths and creditable effort at Uttoxeter in March when third, beaten three and a quarter lengths, to Farnoge. Made a successful debut over hurdles at Warwick (2m) this month when scoring by a length and three quarters from Toonagh Warrior.

Trainer says

He won very well at Warwick and, again, he is another horse who looks pretty useful. The plan is to find another novice with a penalty. I don’t want to step him up in class yet but he is potentially an exciting horse.

Form profile

Runner-up in a point-to-point in Ireland last November and placed in bumpers at Wetherby and Huntingdon in the spring. Well beaten on his hurdling debut at Wetherby (2m 3 1/2f)) this month.

Trainer says

I was disappointed with him at Wetherby on his comeback, but it was very testing ground on Charlie Hall day. He has an entry over three miles at Huntingdon on Sunday and he has run well there before in his bumper. Hopefully, he can put that run behind him and we can move on.

Form profile

Winner of four of his 35 starts on the Flat and currently rated 101. WInner at Newmarket (1m 6f) in May when beating Torcello a neck off a mark of 93 and runner-up, beaten a neck to Okita Soushi in the Duke Of Edinburgh Handicap at Ascot (1m 4f) in June off a mark of 96.

Trainer says

He has had a good break and is just coming back into work. He is probably one for the second half of the season as he wouldn’t want winter ground. He will want two miles over hurdles.

Form profile

Finished runner-up, beaten 15 lengths, to Crest Of Glory on his debut in a bumper at Newbury in March. Again runner-up, beaten two and a quarter lengths, to Navajo Indy in another bumper at Newbury this month.

Trainer says

He is a lovely bumper horse, and he was second in the Sales bumper at Newbury on his debut last season. We brought him back and he was second at Newbury last week and I was very pleased with him. Hopefully, he will improve physically and mentally for it and I am probably going to train him for the Listed bumper at Ascot just before Christmas.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 4 starts on the Flat and currently rated 84. Off the mark in novice event at Ffos Las in September when beating Syllabus four and a quarter lengths.

Trainer says

He could be a decent juvenile. He was a decent Flat horse and won his novice at Ffos Las. He is just about ready to start, and I am looking forward to getting him over hurdles in the next two weeks. I wouldn’t want to over race him this season, but he is a decent prospect.

Form profile

Finished third, beaten 15 lengths, to Seeyouinmydreams, in a bumper at Newbury in March.

Trainer says

She was a promising third in a bumper at Newbury and she just got tired on her seasonal debut at Hereford. I think she has come on a lot for that, and we could run her in the Henrietta Knight listed bumper at Huntingdon in a couple of weeks.

Form profile

Winner of one of her 3 bumpers when beating Lucky Rose a length and three quarters at Lingfield in December. Made a bright start to her hurdling career when scoring by two and three quarter lengths in a mares’ event at Huntingdon on Tuesday.

Trainer says

She won at Huntingdon on her hurdling debut and, again, I would like to think she will come on for it. I might go to Doncaster with her next weekend.

Form profile

Winner of two of his 5 starts and currently rated 120 over hurdles. Winner of a bumper at Huntingdon in May off last year when beating Charming Berry five and a half lengths and added to that success when beating Mardoof half a length in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton in February. Finished third, beaten six and a half lengths, to Celtic Art in a handicap hurdle at Lingfield (2m) last week.

Trainer says

He made a satisfactory comeback at Lingfield last week when finishing third with 12st on his back. He is not a big horse, and the ground was a bit soft and I think there will be a bit of improvement to come. We will probably step him up to two and a half miles later in the season.

Form profile

Winner of five of his 17 starts and currently rated 137 over fences. Lightly raced last season and having only his third start when beating Tile Tapper three lengths in the Grade 3 Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter (4m 2f) in March off a mark of 129. Finished third, beaten five and a quarter lengths, to Enqarde in a handicap chase at Warwick (3m 1 1/2f) this month off his current mark.

Trainer says

He made a lovely comeback when finishing third at Warwick last week. He won’t go for the Coral Cup, and I would like to find a race for him in mid-December. I would then train him for the Classic Chase at Warwick in January. He does have an entry in the Welsh National, but I think that Warwick is more likely.”

Form profile

A winner of one and placed in three of his five bumpers. Best effort last season when runner-up, beaten a length and a quarter, to Aslukgoes in a listed event at Newbury in February. Made a winning hurdling debut at Chepstow (2m 3 1/2f) at the end of October when beating Beat The Bat three quarters of a length.

Trainer says

I was very pleased with his hurdling debut at Chepstow at the end of October. There is nothing specific for him, but we will run him under a penalty and step him up in class later in the year.

Form profile

Finished sixth, beaten 19 ½ lengths, to Crest Of Glory in a bumper at Newbury in March. Finished fifth, beatren 18 lengths, to East India Express in a novices’ hurdle at Kempton (2m 5f) this month.

Trainer says

He ran ok the other day when finishing fifth and there will be a fair bit of improvement to come from him. He could be well up to winning a race or two.

Form profile

Winner of two of his 4 starts in the 2021-22 season and currently rated 142 over hurdles. Winner of his first two starts over hurdles including when beating Balco Coastal two and a half lengths in a Grade 2 event at Cheltenham in January. Ended that season with another brave effort when third, beaten eight and a half lengths, to Three Stripe Life in the Grade 1 Mersey Novices’ Hurdle at Aintree (2m 4f) in April.

Trainer says

He has been off and missed last season but is back in very strong work. We would expect to run in two or three weeks’ time and we are going to stay over hurdles with him this season but he is a very exciting novice chase prospect for next autumn.

Form profile

Winner of four of his 23 starts and currently rated 130 over fences. Highly creditable efforts in defeat last season including when third, beaten 21 lengths, to Major Dundee in the Grade 3 Midland Grand National at Uttoxeter (4m 2f) in March off a mark of 132. Finished unplaced, beaten 27 lenghts, to Make Me A Believer in a handicap chase at Exeter (3m) this month off his current mark.

Trainer says

He is a good old horse, and he ran a satisfactory race at Exeter the other day. We will probably train him for the Classic Chase at Warwick.

Form profile

Winner of two of his 16 starts on the Flat and currently rated 94. Added to his score when beating Lord Protector a neck at Sandown (1m 2f) in July off a mark of 90.

Trainer says

He is a high-quality Flat horse rated in the 90s and he has been doing very well. We will hopefully get him started at Hereford next week. He is horse that we will probably keep to the sharper tracks for the time being. He has a lot of speed and wouldn’t be screaming stamina at me.

Form profile

Winner of his second point-to-point in Ireland in November when beating now stablemate Hey Brother half a length.

Trainer says

He is an Irish point winner and has been ready to run for a couple of weeks but there have been a few abandonments. He will start at Wincanton on Thursday over two and a half and he will probably step up in trip as the season goes on.

Form profile

Winner of 17 of his 52 races and currently rated 156 over fences and 153 over hurdles. Has been a marvellous servant to the stable and took a listed hurdle at Kempton (2m) last October when beating Sebastopol nine and a half lengths. Beaten only two and a half lengths by Knappers Hill when runner-up in the Elite Hurdle at Wincanton (2m) the following month and put up another noteworthy performance when runner-up, beaten a length and a half, to Brewin’upastorm in the Salmon Spray Hurdle at Fontwell (2m 3f) in February. Finished fourth, beaten six and a half lengths, to Rubaud, in a listed hurdle at Kempton (2m) in October - a race he had won the previous two years.

Trainer says

The old boy is well, and he is due to run at Ascot on Saturday over two and a half miles. He is not quite as sharp as he was. He didn’t run a bad race on his comeback at Kempton, but they just go a bit fast for him over two miles now. Up to two and a half miles and the ground drying out, he could run well.

Form profile

Winner of five of his 25 starts and currently rated 137. Gained his last success in a handicap chase at Doncaster (3m) in December when beating Burrows Diamond three and three quarter lengths off a mark of 132.

Trainer says

He is going to go Hunter Chasing, so we won’t see him for a bit. The view is to get him to Aintree for the Foxhunters.

Form profile

Runner-up, beaten three lengths, to Off The Jury in a point-to-point in Ireland in April

Trainer says

He is a fine big horse, and we are really just getting to know him at the moment. He finished second in his Irish point. He is going to stay down the bumper route this year but could be a high-class horse further down the line.

Form profile

Winner of three of his 10 starts and currently rated 118 over hurdles and 86 on the Flar. A winner for the stable on his hurdling bow at Wetherby (2m) in November when scoring by six lengths from Wholeofthemoon and added to that when beating Jilaijone a neck in a hurdle at Taunton (2m 1/2f) in March. Finished third, beaten 10 ½ lengths, to West End Boy in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton (2m) this month.

Trainer says

I was happy enough with his comeback the other day, he had 11st 12lb which is plenty to carry for a four-year-old. I think he will come on plenty for the race and is a horse that stands plenty of work. He will pay his way and I think that maybe in a year when he goes chasing that you will see the best of him.

Form profile

Winning point-to-pointer who made a successful start for the stable in a bumper at Hereford in April when beating Soldierofthestorm two and a quarter lengths. Finished runner-up, beaten only a short head, to Choccablow in an introductory hurdle at Ludlow (2m 5f) this month.

Trainer says

He is a lovely horse, and he was narrowly beaten on his hurdling debut at Ludlow last week. I think Nicky Henderson thinks the winner is pretty smart and he was also race fit. He will be out somewhere in a couple of weeks’ time, but he is a classy prospect.

Form profile

Winner of six of his 32 starts and currently rated 134 over hurdles and 97 on the Flat. Recently finished 13th, beaten 15 lengths, to The Shunter in the Cesarewitch Handicap at Newmarket (2m 2f) in October off a mark of 100.

Trainer says

He has been a grand horse, and we had a great summer both on the Flat and over hurdles. He is due to make his chasing debut at Wincanton on Thursday. It will be exciting to see how he gets on and, hopefully, he enjoys his chasing, and we can have a lot of fun with him.

Form profile

Winner of one of his 4 starts on the Flat and currently rated 72. Finished third, beaten seven and three quarter lengths, to Dasho Lennie at Ripon (1m 4f) in August off a mark of 73. Finished third, beaten 15 lengths, to Liari on his hurdling bow at Wincanton (1m 7f) in October.

Trainer says

He is a good fun horse and made a pleasing hurdling debut finishing third at Wincanton. I think he will come on plenty for the experience and should pay his way.
