  Beraz

  Three-year old colt (Jumps) Trainer: Dan Skelton (Warwickshire) Shares available for £55

  Beraz is a stunning three-year-old colt, who finished second by half a length to the subsequent Group 3 winner Northern Ruler at top French track Chantilly on his debut over a mile and a half in May. He won over a mile and a quarter at Les Sables at the end of August, running on very strongly and asserting well in the closing stages. He ran well at Longchamp on his final start in France in September, to finish fourth in a very competitive race, after being given plenty to do from the rear over an inadequate trip. Beraz was bred by and raced for the leading Flat owner/breeder the Aga Khan and has been bought by Owners Group in a private sale. He is by Zoffany, who achieved great success as a stallion in a short career, siring the likes of Thunder Moon (Group 1 National Stakes), Illuminate (Group 2 Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes) and Mother Earth (Group 1 1,000 Guineas and Group 1 Prix Rothschild). Zoffany has also sired some useful horses over Jumps, including three-time winner, Sir Psycho. Beraz is the first foal out of a winning mare from a lovely family, which is stacked full of Group 1 winners. Beraz is to be trained by Dan Skelton from his Lodge Hill base in Warwickshire. The plan is for Beraz to be gelded in due course and then hopefully be aimed for juvenile hurdles this winter and next spring. Dan is one of the leading Jumps trainers in the country and he and his brother Harry enjoyed a terrific season in 2020/21, culminating in a first Jockeys' Championship for Harry. "I really like the look of Beraz. He is a stunning three-year-old and looks to have all the credentials to make up into a promising juvenile hurdler for Owners Group." Dan Skelton

  Boreen Boy

  Five-year-old gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Olly Murphy (Warwickshire) Shares available for £52

  Boreen Boy is a five-year-old gelding, who made a very good impression on his racecourse debut in a bumper [Flat race for Jumps horses] at Listowel in Ireland on 25 September, winning in good style. Boreen Boy's win was all the more impressive as he was facing three previous winners and he readily brushed them aside, despite his own lack of experience. He was purchased privately by Owners Group after this success. Having already won a bumper, it is likely that Boreen Boy will go novice hurdling this season. Boreen Boy is by the Aga Khan-bred Group 2 winner, Valirann, who has sired several winners over Jumps from quite limited numbers. He is most notably the sire of Paul Nicholls' Knappers Hill, who was unbeaten in bumpers last season, culminating in a Grade 2 success at Aintree's Grand National meeting. Boreen Boy’s dam is by the successful Jumps sire Bob Back (the damsire of Grand National winner Many Clouds and Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Synchronised), and is a half-sister to the Grade 3-winning hurdler McGruders Cross. Boreen Boy is in training with Olly Murphy at his Warren Chase base in Warwickshire. Olly has enjoyed a highly-successful start to his training career, and has already tasted success at the highest level, thanks to Itchy Feet's win in last year’s Grade 1 Scilly Isles Novices' Chase at Sandown. Having already won a bumper, it is likely that Boreen Boy will go novice hurdling this season. "I am delighted to be training Boreen Boy for Owners Group. He is a tough-looking young horse and the current plan is to go straight over hurdles with him this winter." Olly Murphy

  Tambourine Girl

  Four-year-old bay filly (broodmare) Stud: Furnace Mill Stud Shares available for £31

  BREEDING SYNDICATE Tambourine Girl is a four-year-old bay filly by Cable Bay. Tambourine Girl achieved an important success at Kempton as a two-year-old, before failing to fire in four subsequent starts. Being a half-sister to a Listed winner and out of a mare who won as a juvenile over 5f, Tambourine Girl has obvious appeal as a broodmare. She is due to be covered in early 2022, all being well and the choice of stallion will hopefully be confirmed by the end of the year. To confirm, by purchasing a share in Tambourine Girl, you will also become an owner of any foal born during this syndicate term. Tambourine Girl is due to take up broodmare duties at Furnace Mill Stud in Worcestershire.
