Gary Moore Stable Tour

Form profile

108 rated hurdler and rated 86 on the Flat. Finished sixth, beaten 28 lengths, to Quinta Do Mar when returned to hurdling at Fontwell (2m 1 1/2f) in November. A winner three times on the flat this year including when beating Earlofthecotswolds half a length in a handicap at Goodwood (2m) in September.

Trainer says

He has been a good fun horse for the owner, and he has done well on the Flat and not too bad jumping. He was very disappointing the other day - he kind or race too keenly and was too fresh and well. Hopefully, he will improve on that, and I think he could run at Fakenham in a couple of weeks' time.

Form profile

Made an impressive start to his hurdling career when beating Broadway Boy 15 lengths at Lingfield (2m 3 1/2f) in November.

Trainer says

He is a lovely horse, and he has done nothing but please me. He won very well the other day at Lingfield and what he beat I don’t know but he could only win as he did. He loves plenty of give in the ground to be seen at his best and, hopefully, he runs at Sandown on Saturday.

Form profile

Finished runner-up, beaten 10 lengths, to Trojan Horse in a hurdle at Fontwell (2m 1 1/2f) in November on his stable debut.

Trainer says

He is a nice horse, and he ran second at Fontwell first time out. He goes back to Fontwell in a few weeks’ time and, hopefully, he will improve again. We like him a lot and he is a chaser in the making.

Form profile

128 rated chaser. Has won both of his start this season scoring by five and a half lengths from Statuario in a handicap chase at Fontwell (2m 2f) in May off a mark of 123 and came back to short head Bowtogreatness in a novices’ handicap chase at Exeter (2m 3f) last week.

Trainer says

He did well to win the other day and finished his race very well. That was his last chance in a novice, and he now go back into handicap chases. He will go back to Fontwell in a few weeks’ time - he is a great jumper and always runs well.

Form profile

Winner of his only start over hurdles at Auteuil (1m 7f) in April.

Trainer says

He is a horse we like a lot and we have given him plenty of time. He came over from France with a big reputation and he won’t be seen out until the Finale Hurdle at Chepstow. If not, he will be out early in the New Year.

Form profile

150 rated hurdler. Scored by two and a quarter lengths from Get A Tonic when landing the valuable Betfair Exchange Stayers’ Handicap Hurdle at Haydock (3m 1/2f) in November off a mark of 144.

Trainer says

He is a very genuine horse who never runs a bad race and is now rated 150 over hurdles. He will try his luck in the Long Walk Hurdle at Ascot in two weeks’ time. He was very good when winning at Haydock and let’s hope he continues to improve.

Form profile

127 rated hurdler. Finished runner-up, beaten two and a quarter lengths, to Persian Time on his stable debut in a conditions hurdle at Ascot (1m 7 1/2f) this month.

Trainer says

He ran a promising race the other day at Ascot when finishing second and we look forward to running him in a few weeks’ time, but I am not sure where. He is difficult to place now as he is no longer a novice as he won in France earlier in the season.

Form profile

153 rated chaser. Finished third, beaten 13 lengths, to Dads Lad in a handicap chase at Cheltenham (2m) in his reappearance in October off his current mark.

Trainer says

He hasn’t been right since he ran earlier this season at Cheltenham where he ran very well. He is difficult to place but goes back to Cheltenham on Saturday week.

Form profile

135 rated chaser. Pulled up when favourite for a handicap chase at Fontwell (3m 3 /12f) this month off a mark of 137.

Trainer says

He was very disappointing at Fontwell the other day after running very well at Ascot. It was probably my fault for pulling him out so quick and his goal is the Welsh National.

Form profile

Irish point-to-point winner who made a successful debut for the stable in an novices’ hurdle at Lingfield (2m) last week when beating High Game Royal 13 lengths.

Trainer says

He is a horse we like a lot, and he was impressive the other day at Lingfield in very bad ground. What he beat I don’t know but its whether to take small steps or go to the Kennel Gate Hurdle at Ascot.

Form profile

157 rated hurdler. Returned to winning form in the Grade 2 Coral Hurdle at Ascot (2m 3 1/2f) this month when beating Brewin’upastorm eight and a half lengths.

Trainer says

I owe Nicky Henderson a case of wine for taking out Constitution Hill! I wouldn’t have wanted to take him on, and Goshen will have an entry for the £150,000 handicap hurdle at Ascot.

Form profile

128 rated chaser. Finished runner-up, beaten four lengths, to Frere D’Armes in a handicap chase at Kempton (2m 2f) this month off a mark of 126.

Trainer says

He is a horse who has been very unlucky this year and bumped into three good horses in his first chase when getting rid of Jamie at the last and it was a kind of tired fall. He has two or three options, but I think I want to keep him to two miles before I do anything else.

Form profile

Runner-up, beaten six lengths, to Thames Water in a bumper at Ascot this month.

Trainer says

He ran a promising race first time at Ascot, and he could go back to Ascot in a few weeks’ time. He is a lovely big horse and a chaser in the making.

Form profile

130 rated chaser. Finished runner-up, beaten 20 lengths, to Lac De Constance at Kempton (2m 2f) last week.

Trainer says

He has done well, and I think he bumped into a very good horse at Kempton the other day. He was beaten a long way and he looked like he wants to go a bit further. He jumped brilliantly at Sandown first time, and he didn’t jump as well at Kempton but then they did take half the fences out at Sandown. He needs to be dropped in class a little bit and brush up his jumping a little bit but is a winner waiting to happen.

Form profile

111 rated hurdler. Pulled up in a handicap hurdle won by Optimise Prime at Lingfield (2m 3 1/2f) last week off a mark of 115.

Trainer says

He has been very disappointing so far and came from France with a big reputation but hasn’t lived up to it at the moment. We have to straighten a few things up in his head and take it from there.

Form profile

120 rated hurdler. Finished sixth, beaten 12 lengths, to Monviel in a handicap hurdle at Ascot (1m 7 1/2f) this month off a mark of 123.

Trainer says

He didn’t run too bad at Ascot the other day - I was very pleased with him - and it’s a question of finding the right race for him. We are very limited with the options we have with him, but he showed more potential at Ascot than he had done previously.

Form profile

Bumper winner in France and best effort in three runs for stable when third, in a bumper at Market Rasen (2m 1/2f) in May.

Trainer says

He has been running in bumpers and is due to go hurdling any day. He is a horse we like a lot.

Form profile

Winner of his bumper in France in October of last year.

Trainer says

He is a horse with a big pedigree, and I would like to get him out somewhere before now and Christmas. He is a lovely horse.

Form profile

127 rated hurdler. Scored by two lengths from Complete Unknown in a novices’ hurdle at Ascot (2m 5 1/2f) in January and added to that success when beating Make My Day a length and a quarter in a novices’ hurdle at Fontwell (2m 3f) in February.

Trainer says

He is a lovely horse with a bright future. He should be ready to run in the next couple of weeks.

Form profile

Finished third in his only AQPS Flat Race in France in April.

Trainer says

He came with a decent reputation from France and at the moment he is just proving to be a bit keen. We want to settle him before he runs but he does jump well. It won’t be too long before he runs.

Form profile

Winner of both his bumpers. Scored by three and a quarter lengths from Glorious Oscar at Warwick in May and followed up with a seven and a half lengths victory from American Land at Newton Abbot in October.

Trainer says

He won’t run until the Winter Million at Lingfield where he will go for that valuable bumper. He has won both his bumpers on the turf, and we will give him a spin around Lingfield before he goes for that race.

Form profile

122 rated hurdler. Made a winning reappearance in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton (2m) in October when beating Tara Iti two and a half lengths off a mark of 120. Subsequently seventh, beaten 29 lengths, to I Like To Move It in the Grade 3 Greatwood Hurdle at Cheltenham (2m 1/2f) in November off a mark of 124

Trainer says

He ran well first time out when he won at Plumpton, and he got wiped out at the start of the Greatwood and there we no hurdles for about a mile. It was a mess of a race and we’ll put a line through that - he goes to Lingfield next week.

Form profile

125 rated hurdler. Finished fifth, beaten 21 lengths, to Lightly Squeeze in a handicap hurdle at Kempton (2m) last week.

Trainer says

He was very disappointing last Monday over hurdles. He has done it to me two or three times and he probably needs a run before he gets switched on. Hopefully, he is a horse with a future. He should be a good horse over fences, but he is not ready for them yet.

Form profile

128 rated chaser. Winner of his four completed starts since joining the stable and ended last season with a 14-length victory from Frenchy Du Large in a novices’ handicap chase at Lingfield (2m 7 1/2f) last February off a mark of 117.

Trainer says

He is in on Friday and Saturday at Sandown and if he is not quite ready, he will go to Fontwell on Friday week.

Form profile

142 rated chaser. Creditable effort when sixth, beaten 11 ½ lengths, to Ga Law in the Grade 3 Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham (2m 4f) this month off a mark of 144.

Trainer says

He has run two good races on ground he doesn’t like. He is not totally ground dependent, and he goes back to Cheltenham.

Form profile

Winner of a bumper at Huntingdon in January and finished fourth, beaten nine and a quarter lengths, to Thames Water in a similar event at Ascot this month.

Trainer says

He won his bumper first time out at Huntingdon, and I ran him the other day at Ascot where he got too far back in the race and had a lot of ground to make up. He only has one eye and has a lot of nervous energy, and I would say we would ride him a bit handier next time and, hopefully, he will run well.

Form profile

Creditable effort when runner-up, beaten two and a quarter lengths, to Scriptwriter on his debut over hurdles in a Grade 2 event at Cheltenham (2m 1/2f) this month and had no trouble going one better at Leicester (1m 7 1/2f) on Sunday when scoring by 24 lengths from Mr Rumbalicious.

Trainer says

He is a lovely big horse, and he is a Sea The Stars and needs to brush up his jumping a bit. When he gets his act together, he will be a better horse in a better race. I am glad he won the way he did as you would have been disappointed if he hadn’t won cosily. He can only come forward.

Form profile

Placed in both his bumpers. Finished runner-up, beaten two and a quarter lengths, to Cavalon at Market Rasen in May and third, beaten seven and a half lengths, to Iolaos at Newbury this month.

Trainer says

He is another horse who hasn’t run over hurdles yet. He is a nice horse and a horse with a future. We like him a lot.

Form profile

114 rated hurdler. Finished sixth, beaten 35 lengths, to Caramelised in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton (2m) on his reappearance at Plumpton (2m) in October off a mark of 118.

Trainer says

He won a race for us and has disappointed us ever since. I think he has taken a long time to acclimatise and hopefully we will see better from him in the next few weeks.

Form profile

130 rated hurdler. Finished runner-up, beaten nine and a half lengths, to Lord Baddesley in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton (2m 4 1/2f) in October off a mark of 131.

Trainer says

He ran fairly well at Plumpton the other day, but it is fairly hard to find races for him. We need to step him up and trip and see if we can squeeze more improvement out of him as the handicapper seems to have him in his grip.

Form profile

Better effort on her debut in a bumper at Fontwell in May when runner-up, beaten three and a quarter lengths, to Shelikesthelights.

Trainer says

She is a nice filly and we chucked her in at the deep end at Cheltenham the other day and asked too much of her. She will now go in mares’ hurdles and the sooner we get her jumping the better.

Form profile

129 rated hurdler. Scored by 20 lengths from Alexandra Romanov in a maiden hurdle at Fontwell (2m 1 1/2f) this month and subsequently third, beaten five and three quarter lengths, to First Street in a Grade 3 Handicap Hurdle at Newbury (2m 1/2f) on Saturday.

Trainer says

He ran in the Gerry Feilden at Newbury on Saturday and ran well on ground that was probably too quick for him. He is a better horse on soft ground.

Form profile

100 rated chaser.Finished runner-up, beaten a length and a quarter, to Ramore Will in a handicap chase at Lingfield (2m 6f) this month off his current mark.

Trainer says

He is what he is and ran a great race at Lingfield the other day. He will keep going and if he has a going day, he has every chance of getting his head in front. He gives his owners a lot of fun.

Form profile

99 rated chaser has won both of his handicap chases at Lingfield this month. Scored by three and a quarter lengths from Gallic Geordie on his reappearance over two and a half miles and followed up with a two and half length success from Shaw’s Cross over two miles on Thursday.

Trainer says

He has done well to win two races this year and is obviously a horse that is a late developer. He loves soft ground and it depends what the handicapper does with him.

Form profile

123 rated hurdler. Finished fourth, beaten 18 lengths, to First Street in a Grade 3 Handicap Hurdle at Newbury (2m 1/2f) on Saturday.

Trainer says

He ran well at Newbury on Saturday when finishing fourth in the Gerry Feilden. He needs to brush up his jumping big time and once he does that, he will be alright.

Form profile

131 rated chaser. A winner twice over fences in handicap chases at Lingfield last season over two miles seven and a half furlongs and two miles and four furlongs. Pulled up on his reappearance in a handicap chase won by Your Darling at Ascot this month.

Trainer says

He is a very nice horse and one we like a lot but I don’t know where we go next. He is not a bleeder, but he bled the other day and we treated him. Hopefully, he was sick and that was the reason he bled but he is horse not to write off.
