  Carlo Du Berlais

  Four-year-old gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Fergal O'Brien (Cheltenham) Shares available for £58

  Carlo Du Berlais is a very good-looking four-year-old gelding. He finished second in a point-to-point at Tipperary at the end of April, having fallen three out when still in contention on his first start a couple of weeks earlier. Carlo Du Berlais is by Carlotamix, who was a Group One winner as a two-year-old and whose best Jumps progeny is the top-class, dual Grade One-winning French hurdler, Gemix. Carlo Du Berlais also hails from a family that is packed with Listed and Graded-class hurdlers and chasers. Carlo Du Berlais is likely to start off in a bumper (Flat race for Jumps horses) or two this autumn, before going novice hurdling. Ultimately, he will hopefully make up into a chaser. Carlo Du Berlais is to be trained by Fergal O'Brien from his base in the heart of the Cotswolds. Fergal gained valuable experience when based with Captain Tim Forster and then Nigel Twiston-Davies, before setting up as a trainer in his own right in 2011. Fergal has made a big impact in a short space of time since moving to England and more recently to the impressive Ravenswell Farm, which should help him and his team to achieve even greater success in the years ahead. "I was really taken with Carlo Du Berlais at the sales and thought that he was a very likeable and athletic young horse. I am delighted to be training for Owners Group and I hope that we can look forward to plenty of success." Fergal O'Brien

  Contemplatemyfaith

  Five-year-old bay gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Olly Murphy (Warwickshire) Shares available for £57

  Contemplatemyfaith is a good-looking five-year-old gelding, who finished a decent third in a Flat race for point-to-point horses in Ireland at the end of March; staying on strongly to the line and beaten just two lengths by the winner. Contemplatemyfaith has a very strong pedigree, and is a half-brother to the useful A Great View, who won three times over hurdles and once over fences for Denis Cullen and JP McManus. He is by Califet, who has produced a number of top-class jumpers, including Cilaos Emery (Grade 1 novice hurdle winner), Clarcam (dual Grade 1 winner) and Adrien Du Pont (Grade 1 juvenile hurdle winner). The current plan is for Contemplatemyfaith to enjoy a short break before heading into training later this summer, when he will join up-and-coming trainer, Olly Murphy. Olly has enjoyed a great start to his training career and has already tasted Grade 1 glory, with Itchy Feet landing the Scilly Isles Novices' Chase at Sandown in 2020.

  Proclaimer

  Four-year-old bay gelding (Flat) Trainer: Julie Camacho (North Yorkshire) Shares available for £31

  Proclaimer is a four-year-old bay gelding by Free Eagle who retired to stud at the end of 2015 after a highly successful career at distances between 1m and 1m 4f. Proclaimer has enjoyed a trouble-free spring and Julie Camacho is hopeful that he might be ready for his first run of the season shortly. Julie reports him to be moving and working well and she feels that he has every chance of building on his sole win to date, which was achieved on the all-weather at Newcastle as a two-year-old. Proclaimer is in training with Julie Camacho in Malton, North Yorkshire. Julie is enjoying an excellent season and has already trained a Group 3 winner, in the shape of top-notch sprinter, Judicial.
