Makin'yourmindup
Eight-year-old bay gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Paul Nicholls (Somerset) Shares available for £43
Makin’yourmindup is an eight-year-old bay gelding by Kayf Tara, who was one of the most successful Jumps stallions of his generation and sired many top-class horses, including Thistlecrack, Special Tiara and Edwardstone. Makin'yourmindup has won five times for his owners; three times over hurdles and twice over fences. His best performance came at Haydock in 2023 when he won a Grade 2 novices' hurdle. He was progressive over fences but incurred a tendon injury in the spring of 2024. He has made a good recovery and is due to return to training imminently. Paul Nicholls is likely to aim Makin'yourmindup for staying chases this season and may consider the Welsh Grand National at Chepstow over the Christmas period. Makin’yourmindup is in training with Paul Nicholls, who has been crowned champion trainer on a remarkable 14 occasions. He has enjoyed great success for Owners Group over the years, most notably with Grade 1 Cheltenham Festival and Paddy Power Gold Cup winner, Stage Star.

Thewoodcorner
Three-year-old gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Nicky Henderson (Berkshire) Shares available for £57
Shares are available in the three-year-old gelding, Thewoodcorner, who won his second career start in France earlier this year; a 2m maiden on soft ground. This was a solid performance, with the first two home coming well clear of the remainder. Thewoodcorner is by The Grey Gatsby, a well-regarded sire standing in France who won two Group 1 races for Kevin Ryan. His best Jumps progeny include the Nicky Henderson-trained Timetoshine, who won three hurdle races on the bounce last season. Thewoodcorner is the first foal out of a winning mare, who is from an excellent family including multi pattern race winner, Goldy Espony. Thewoodcorner is also related to Sporazene, whose nine career wins included a Grade 1 hurdle at Punchestown and the County Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Thewoodcorner is to be trained by Nicky Henderson from his Seven Barrows yard in Lambourn, Berkshire. Thewoodcorner looks an ideal type for Nicky to crack on with this season, and we hope he will contest juvenile hurdles from November onwards.

Mister Ursus
Four-year-old chesnut gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Olly Murphy (Warwickshire) Shares available for £49
Shares are available in the four-year-old gelding, Mister Ursus. He was a very successful Flat horse in Poland, before heading to France to continue his career. He won nicely at Nantes on heavy ground at the end of March and looks a progressive type over staying distances. Mister Ursus is by Breeders' Cup hero, Raven's Pass, who was a top-level performer for John Gosden. Now a stallion, Raven's Pass has produced a number of useful prospects, both on the Flat and over Jumps. His best progeny to date includes Group 1 winner, Matterhorn. Mister Ursus' dam, Diamond, is a half-sister to Libran, who won a total of nine races and enjoyed a highly successful career in Australia after signing off in the UK with an impressive win in a York handicap as a four-year-old.

Mister Ursus is currently enjoying a summer break at EquiPrep and is due to join Olly Murphy in the coming weeks. Olly enjoyed an excellent Jumps season in 2024/25, finishing fifth in the Trainers' Championship. He was also pivotal in stable jockey Sean Bowen's quest and success in achieving his first Champion Jockey title.

The plan is for Mister Ursus to go novice hurdling in the autumn. His versatility, athleticism and liking for cut in the ground are all positives ahead of his new career over timber.

Kit's Coty
Seven-year-old bay mare (Jumps) Trainer: Emma Lavelle (Wiltshire) Shares available for £39
Kit’s Coty is a seven-year-old bay mare by Black Sam Bellamy. In a lengthy career at stud, the late Black Sam Bellamy sired top stayers including The Giant Bolster, Sam Spinner, Sam Brown and Molly Ollys Wishes.

Kit's Coty had a slightly frustrating season over fences with the weather and ground not helping at times. She ran well on her chasing debut at Ludlow last October and trainer Emma Lavelle hopes that she'll improve next season (from October onwards). She remains a novice over fences for the upcoming season.

Kit’s Coty is in training with Emma Lavelle at her Bonita Racing Stables near Marlborough in Wiltshire. Emma has enjoyed plenty of success at the highest level, particularly with Paisley Park.

The Carpenter
Nine-year-old grey gelding (Jumps) Trainer: Nicky Henderson (Berkshire) Shares available for £42
The Carpenter is a nine-year-old grey gelding by Shantaram. The Carpenter is a half-brother to the useful five-time winner (including a bumper, as well as over hurdles and fences), Dubai Angel, and he is from the family of the popular hurdler Simpson, who achieved Graded success over hurdles and finished third in the Stayers' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival.

The Carpenter is a talented horse. He has only run six times under Rules; winning three times over hurdles in 2023. He didn't enjoy much luck over fences last season, and he has been off in recent months with knee issues. With the vet’s permission, he has begun lunging and long-reining to help strengthen him up before hopefully returning to full training later this year.

Idaho Valley is a five-year-old bay gelding by Idaho. Idaho was runner-up in the Irish Derby and won the Group 2 Hardwicke Stakes at Ascot as a four-year-old. Idaho Valley has shaped well on his five hurdling starts to date, particularly at Wetherby in December, when finishing second.
