Pulled these from Keighley website but doesnt look that up to date to me ....maybe pre Cheltenham 2012 ? His blog might be a better source for info
Always Bold (IRE)
'Chips' joined us in May 2011 and had a summer break and also went cubbing too. He has been a bit of a star already as he won twice over hurdles at Fontwell in good style. We've run him over fences as he jumps well at home and he is slowly getting more confident. Only time will tell though whether he can be as good over fences.
Any Currency (IRE)
A lovely horse who has been a real star. He was unlucky to finish 2nd four times in his hurdling season having bumped into one too good on the day every time. Switched to fences he won a good race at Sandown Park to break his maiden tag. We then ran him at Ascot and he was given the 'Attheraces Ride of the Week' by Warren Marston who never gave up on him and got him up to win by 3/4 of a length on the line. He then ran at The 2010 Cheltenham Festival under Irish Amateur Derek O'Connor and he ran a blinder to finish 4th in the Four Mile National Hunt Chase, only beaten 5 lengths and could have done with slightly softer ground. Last season he was 2nd to Midnight Chase at the Paddy Power Cheltenham meeting but then missed the rest of the season due to a minor leg injury. His aim this season is the Grand National but he needs to go up in the handicap to be guaranteed a run.
Benbane Head (USA)
A smashing gelding who Gerry Hogan bought privately in Ireland after he won his only Point-to-Point and he is the first racehorse that Louise has owned. After winning his bumper he was 10th in the Champion Bumper at The Cheltenham Festival. In October 2009 he became our first ever Cheltenham winner when he won over hurdles on only his second start over those obstacles. Sadly though he sustained an injury in doing so and missed the rest of that season.Last season he had more than his fair share of problems but that was all forgotten in May when he won his debut over fences under an A P McCoy masterclass at Newton Abbot - a fantastic day. He followed up by winning at Uttoxeter under Ian Popham and has since been 3rd at Cheltenham over fences with A P McCoy back on board. He's had a short break since but he is a serious horse and I'm excited about his future.
Brimham Boy
A lovely looking horse who, after running consistently without winning, won in great style at Hereford last season with Warren on board. Although he seemed to be crucified by the Handicapper who raised him a massive 12lbs for that success he won again in awesome style at Huntingdon. He's had a summer break and will hopefully pay his way again this season.
Champion Court (IRE)
Champ has been a star for us and he won his first start over hurdles for us in a Grade 2 Hurdle at Cheltenham in November 2010. He went on to finish 4th in the Albert Bartlett at the 2011 Cheltenham Festival which was a great run. Novice chasing this season and he pulled too hard & unseated A P McCoy at Perth on his debut. Since then he has behaved himself winning at Aintree then finishing 2nd and 3rd at Cheltenham. Back to Cheltenham on New Years Day and he lead almost from pillar to post in the Grade 2 Dipper Novices' Chase under Alain Cawley and jumped for fun, winning in good style. He is very exciting.
Court In Session (IRE)
Judge has so far had an exciting season winning over hurdles at Cheltenham in October and following up over hurdles at Ascot. We then switched him to fences but without success so he has had a nice break and will possibly be aimed at the Coral Cup at The Festival which is back over hurdles and keep him a novice to go chasing with next season. He jumps for fun and is a straight forward horse to train and should give us a lot more great days out.
Flementine (IRE)
Flementime joined us in the autumn of 2011 and is a big chestnut mare built to be a chaser.She has always done everything nicely at home and has a lovely attitude so it was no surprise to us when she won her bumper at Plumpton first time out in good style. She has come out of that race well and will be aimed at the Mares' Listed Bumper at Aintree in April.
Havingotascoobydo (IRE)
Scooby won a point to point and then he won a bumper for us at Newton Abbot in August 2010. He then went on and won twice over hurdles and gave his owners a lot of fun. He's a very athletic type and jumps fences well at home so I cannot wait to go novice chasing with him.
Mauricetheathlete (IRE)
Maurice gave his owner's grandson, Nick Slatter, a lot of fun last season and was placed regularly.He needs a trip and has a relentless gallop which was well suited to a race at Sedgefield over 3 miles 3 furlongs in March. Nick was unavailable due to a full book of rides point-to-pointing so Jason Maguire proved an able deputy and took the race by the scruff of it's neck and gained a pillar to post success.
Geoff was delighted that day but even more at Chepstow in December when Nick was in the saddle and gave Maurice a fantastic ride to win over hurdles. Let's hope that is the first of many.
Midnight Myth
Myth was bred by her owners who live locally in Blockley and she joined us in March.She is a lovely looking mare and has a great attitude - she's tough and genuine. She'd only been broken in when she arrived and had been hacked about. She's blossomed since and jumps well too. She has finished 4th and 5th in bumpers and will only improve with a hurdle put in front of her. She is having a short break with her owners and will come back to go hurdling in August and will hopefully give her owners a lot of fun.
Monty's Revenge
'Dickie' is a half brother to Any Currency and has been a very slow developing horse. He was well beaten in his bumper in December 2008 and put away for the rest of the season to strengthen up. Over hurdles last season he showed he was still quite weak and was jumping well on his debut over fences this summer when he unfortunately sustained a heavy fall. We gave him a confidence boosting run over hurdles at Worcester after this and he shocked us all by winning at 33-1 and we hope he will now go on and improve again from that. It was great that his owner's patience paid off.
One More Cookie (IRE)
Cookie ran in a couple of bumpers for us without winning but then on her debut over hurdles at Plumpton she jumped for fun and, with a little bit of luck, won nicely. She will stay over hurdles this season and early next season and is a nice prospect for staying chases in the future.
Sky Calling
There are still a couple of shares available in this tough and genuine mare. She is well bred and very well put together and has given her Syndicate a lot of fun already. She won over hurdles at Southwell in August 2008 and won again at Market Rasen over hurdles in May 2009 but sadly sustained a leg injury which forced her to miss the rest of the season. Sky put 18 months of problems behind her when she won impressively on her debut over fences at Worcester in early May and then just 9 days later won over hurdles at Southwell. A versatile mare, she tries her heart out and will give her owners lots of fun over hurdles and fences.
Spring Moon
As the name may suggest he is Wolf Moon's half brother and was bought at the Sales in Ireland and arrived mid June 2009 unbroken. The family are late maturers and he was very green in his first bumper and leapt and bucked for the first 2 furlongs but still managed to finish 4th. He then finished 5th at Southwell in early February but showed us that he is still weak. He has had niggly problems and deserves to have a problem free run.
The Wicked Kipper
Kipper joined us in the summer of 2011. She is the full sister to Cue Card and has changed and learned a lot since she arrived. She does everything nicely at home and we were delighted with her debut in a bumper on the all-weather during the cold snap at Kempton Park. It was a shame that we couldn't run her on turf but she was ready for a run. A competitive race and the penny dropped a little too late for her to make it a successful debut but it was a great run none the less. An exciting prospect.
Typhon De Guye (FR)
A lovely gelding who came to me from Richard Hobson who sources a lot of his horses in France. He goes nicely at home and will be due to run in a bumper in October/ early November. I am pleased with his attitude and I hope he will be the type of horse that will give his enthusiastic owners a lot of fun.
Ukrainian Star (IRE)
Boris has been an absolute star for us. He joined us in summer 2010 and won over fences at Warwick in November. He then won again for us over hurdles this time at Hereford in January. This season he has already won over hurdles at Hereford, leading from pillar to post, and followed up by winning over fences at Towcester on Boxing Day and again at Towcester in January - 3 on the bounce. He is an out and out stayer and loves soft ground and just gallops his rivals into the ground. He's very popular in the yard and there are surely more races to be won with him.
