"ONE
TO JUMP!!" 1999
Novice Hurdlers
Abaco {USA}
roan gelding Theatrical - Jungle Dawn
7
Dermot Weld in Ireland
Decent miler on the flat, has the class to make the grade, if taking to
hurdles
Abacus
chestnut gelding Be My Native {USA} - Millers Run
5
Martin C Pipe
One of the better point to pointers in Ireland last term and is an
interesting prospect, particular as he’s joined the Pipe yard
Alexander Prize
bay gelding Miner's Leap - Just Our Luck
5
Willie P Mullins in Ireland
Useful bumper in Ireland last term, disappointed at cheltenham, but look
potentially one to note for a return visit in March 2000
Alpha Blues
chestnut colt Acatenango {GER} - Alpha Belle
4
Jim Dreaper in Ireland
Formerly trained in Germany, fourth behind Kayf Tara at Deaville in
August. I certain Jim Dreaper will look after him and should be placed to
win races this term
Aonfocalelie
bay gelding Be My Native {USA} - Stamp of Glory
7
Edward J O'Grady in Ireland
Came up against the best of Ireland's bumper horses last term, and a
reproduction of that will enable him to find some races in Ireland this
season.
Avalon Buck
bay gelding Buckskin - Lilly's Way
6
Venetia M Williams
Winner of a point to point in Ireland bought for 28,000 guineas, at
Doncaster Sales. An embryonic chaser who should pay to follow over the
smaller obstacles this term
Baie des Singes
bay gelding Royal Vulcan - Mikey's Monkey
5
Henry D J Daly
Second in his only run so far at Warwick {Looked the winner on the home
turn}. He doesn’t have to improve much to be capable of winning over
jumps this term
Ballinclay King
bay gelding Asir - Clonroche Artic
5
Ferdy Murphy
Looked special when winning a bumper at Ayr, and not disgraced at
Punchestown subsequently. Held in high regard by his trainer, he is a
banker to win this season, and may be a very useful recruit
Ben Cohan
bay gelding Brush Aside - Lornaaron
6
Kim C Bailey
Winner of a point to point in Ireland. Like several in this list, will be
an embryonic chaser who should do well this term, but may be a better
proposition next season
Bilverderin
bay gelding Bob Back {USA} - Straw Berret {USA}
5
Sarah Collins in Ireland
Very useful bumper horse last term in Ireland. Has only to translate that
ability to hurdles to score, and may develop into one of their better
young prospects
Brother Ernest
brown gelding Phardante {FR} - Minerstown
4
Geoff A Hubbard
Well bred individual, who will need time but may pick up a small novice
hurdle or two before going onto better things next season
Brother Joe {NZ}
chestnut gelding Hula Town {NZ} - Olivia Rose {NZ}
5
Phillip J Hobbs
Finished 2nd in the New Zealand St Leger last year, may appreciate a trip
over jumps, but should pay to follow
Bruthuinne
chestnut gelding Vaquillo {FR} - Portane Miss
4
Henrietta C Knight
Winner of a point to pint in Ireland, and is a chasing prospect in a few
season’s time. should be up to winning this season over hurdles
Canasta
bay gelding Buckskin {FR} - Bell Walks Fancy
5
Mark A Pitman
Very useful multi winning bumper horse, who has to be one of the bankers
in this list to win this season
Cardiff Arms {NZ}
bay gelding Lowell {NZ} - Shuzohra {NZ}
5
Venetia M Williams
Former Derby winner in Australia. He caught my eye when running a really
good race in listed company a month ago. Looks very useful, and is one of
the better horses in this list
Catherinethegreat
bay filly Petoski - Catherine Bridge
4
Henry D J Daly
As yet unraced filly. Nicely bred, and could win a mares hurdle or two.
Ceanannas Mor
brown gelding Strong Gale - Game Sunset
5
Nicky J Henderson
Full brother to Stormyfairweather, bought from Edna Bolger’s yard. bred
to be a decent horse, and hopefully will have a good introductory year.
Crocadee
bay gelding Rakaposhi King - Raise the Dawn
6
Venetia M Williams
One of the best ‘bumper’ horses of last term. Very impressive at
Bangor, and then not disgraced in Championship Graded races afterwards.
Will be very hard to beat this season
Dancing Kris
bay horse Kris - Liska's Dance
6
Ian P Williams
Well bred individual who has useful handicap form in France. Trainer rates
him highly and expects him to make up into a decent novice hurdler
Delicio
brown gelding Roselier {FR} - Grey's Delight
6
Chris Parker
Nice horse who won a bumper last term. He should be up to scoring on the
Northern circuit this time around.
Derrintogher Yank
bay gelding Lord Americo - Glenmalur
5
Simon E H Sherwood
Ran in a couple of decent bumpers last season, but would still have been
on the weak side. Whilst he not a world beater, he should improve this
term, and win over a trip
Diklersbrush
bay gelding Brush Aside {USA} - Dikler Gale
6
Nicky J Henderson
Winner and placed in Irish point to points. I should think he can win over
hurdles this term but is really a long term chasing prospect
Doight's d'Or {FR}
bay gelding Sanglamore {USA} - Doigts de Fee {USA}
4
Paul R Webber
Ran a couple of decent races last season in this country, but probably was
still on the weak side. Whilst he not a world beater, he should improve
this term
Enrique {GER}
chestnut gelding Niniski - Eicidora {GER}
4
Phillip J Hobbs
Enrique is a winner on the flat in Germany and can win at his trainer’s
local tracks over jumps
Father Mansfield
bay gelding Phardante {FR} - Lena's Reign
5
Nicky J Henderson
Winner of two point to points in Ireland last term. Is obviously therefore
a chasing prospect, but is thought to possess enough speed to win over
hurdles
Fortville {FR}
bay gelding Mansonnien - Grande Yapa
5
Paul F Nicholls
Winner of an point to point in this country. Well thought of by the
trainer and should be up to winning over hurdles
Gus Cunningham
brown gelding Bustomi - Crazie Annie
7
Mary Reveley
Temperament in abundance but very able when putting his mind to it. Will
win a race or two if they manage to conserve his energy for the track.
Hamish
brown gelding Rakaposhi King - Kellemba
4
Henry D J Daly
As yet unraced horse, but is a nice type and is a bread and butter type,
who can win around the smaller tracks
Happy Change {GER}
chestnut horse Surumu {GER} - Happy Gini {USA}
5
Venetia M Williams
Over-hyped Group horse from Germany who was touted as a possible
challenger for Istabraq’s crown. Probably over the top, but must win if
placed in novice company
Hati Roy
bay mare Lafontaine {USA} - Stage Debut
6
Henrietta C Knight
Winner point to pointer in Ireland, should be up to winning hurdles races,
particularly the mares-only variety
Haut Cercy {FR}
bay gelding Roi de Rome {USA} - Mamoussia {FR}
4
Henry D J Daly
This is one I like, he came here unraced but had one run in a bumper,
making an eye-catching performance to finish third. May well win a bumper
before going onto better things this term
Hello de Vauxbain {FR}
bay gelding Le Nain Jaune - Quadrille de Cuy
4
Henrietta C Knight
Winner of a bumper in France in May, limited form so far in France, but
the sort of horse that might improve in Henrietta Knight’s care
Hey Guy
bay gelding The Bart {USA} - Evening Grove
6
Howard Johnson
Yet another point to point winner from Ireland, we must have bought them
all !!!. Trainer likes this one and hopefully he can win around the
Northern circuit, but like so many in this list, chasing will be his game
Highland
grey gelding Supreme Leader - Precipienne
5
Simon E H Sherwood
As yet unraced horse but like by his trainer and could win a race or two
this term.
Hitman
bay gelding Contract Law - Loveville
4
Mark A Pitman
Decent Listed type when last ran for Henry Cecil. Picked up an injury and
is now with the powerful Pitman Stable. Highly thought of by them, and
Cheltenham is already on the agenda... an interesting recruit
Hyperion du Moulin II {FR}
bay gelding Kedellic {FR} - Mipour {FR}
4
Previously trained by Captain Tim Forster
This is one I like, he came here unraced but had one run in a bumper,
making an eye-catching performance to finish third. May well win a bumper
before going onto better things this term
Ibex
bay gelding Gunner B - {Unknown}
5
David Pipe
Winner of a English point to point last term. Slowly learning his craft
and could win under rules, if transferred to Daddy’s yard
Ingonish
grey gelding Be My Native {USA} - Mystery Rose
6
Noel Meade in Ireland
Useful bumper horse in Ireland, possibly didn’t quite show that at
Cheltenham. Must do well this term if taking to hurdling
Invictress {DEN}
bay filly Prince Nab - Joe's Lake
4
Phillip J Hobbs
Former Winner of the Danish Oaks, is probably one of the more interesting
horses to come from that sphere in recent years
Itsonlyme
bay gelding Broken Hearted - Over the Arctic
6
Venetia M Williams
Winner of three bumpers last season. Should be placed to good effect by
his trainer over hurdles this term
Jack the Bear
bay gelding Un Desperado - Vale of Peace
5
Paul F Nicholls
Winner of an Irish point to point, should win over hurdles this term but
is really a long term chasing prospect
Jaguar {NZ}

6
Lenny Lungo
Winner on the Flat in New Zealand, should be able to find success around
the Northern circuit.
John David
bay gelding Broadsword {USA} - Celtic Well
6
Mark A Pitman
Well regard by the trainer and has already shown promise in bumpers, I
expect him to step up on this over obstacles.
Kaiserstolz {GER}
bay gelding Sure Blade - Kaiserstreue
6
Ian P Williams
Useful form on the flat in Germany, Kaiserstolz is an interesting arrival
from those parts. I’d be disapointed if he didn’t win this term.
Lastman {USA}
brown gelding Fabulous Dancer {USA} - Rivala {USA}
4
Jonjo O'Neill
Disappointed last term for David Nicholson and is now with Jonjo
O’Neill’s yard. He was very useful on the flat previously, and might
have been found easier pickings by the move up North.
Maousse Honor {FR}
brown filly High Honour - Maousse {FR}
4
Martin C Pipe
Typical Martin Pipe early season French purchase. She has already created
a big impression in sauntering to wins on the summer jump circuit at
Worcester and Newton Abbot. She pulled up very sore last time and as a
result she may not appear again, but she has the scope to jump fences and
might be useful in mares only races.
Master Henry {GER}
bay gelding Mille Balles {FR} - Maribelle {GER}
5
Venetia M Williams
Useful flat horse in Germany/France. Would be a decent recruit, if he
translates that ability to obstacles
Mestre Sala {FR}
bay gelding Al Nasr {FR} - Light Lida {USA}
4
Henry D J Daly
Decent bumper who didn’t really show his true potential in the
Cheltenham Bumper. Must win a race or two this season, before going onto
better things next term
Michel des Moeurs {Fr.}
bay gelding Northern Fashion - See That Girl
5
Paul F Nicholls
A multi winner on the flat in the Provinces, He comes over with a tall
reputation. One of the best foreign breds Paul Nicholls has taken care of.
Mr Lamb
grey gelding Deploy - Caroline Lamb
4
Martin C Pipe
Winner of a bumper, and has the unenviable tag of being one of the most
expensive horse bought at a sale. Don’t know whether that was money well
spent but he can win his share of races this term
Mysilverriverfeale
brown gelding Be My Native {USA} - Calamiare
5
Patrick J O'Flynn in Ireland
Ran well in bumpers in Ireland, possibly may struggle since he lacks the
scope of some of the horses in this list. however is an able sort and must
do well this term if taking to hurdling
Nervous O'Toole
bay gelding Mister Lord {USA} - Dooney's Daughter
4
Mark A Pitman
Looked good when winning a bumper at Worcester last term and one to note
over hurdle, probably only over the minimum trip
Oa Baldixe {FR}
grey colt Linamix {FR} - Bal d'Oa {FR}
5
Noel Meade in Ireland
Very good on the flat in France, went over to Noel Meade’s yard with a
tall reputation. Unfortunately ran poorly when the yard was out of sorts
and as a result should be given another chance
Ososhot
bay gelding Teenoso {USA} - Duckdown
6
Venetia M Williams
Winner of a bumper last term at Ludlow, and this half brother to Celtic
Shot may surprise and make up into a decent novice
Pippin's Ford
bay gelding Shahanndeh - Shakoura
4
Paul F Nicholls
Winner of his only run in a bumper in Ireland by a distance, can develop
into a long distance novice hurdler
Rodock {FR}
bay horse Leading Counsel {USA} - High Light {FR}
5
Martin C Pipe
Formerly trained in France winner of his only run at Auteuil, interesting
bred and may make up into a useful novice hurdler.
Roman King
bay colt Sadlers Wells {USA} - Romantic Feeling
4
Micky D Hammond
Very lightly raced type on the flat, looked a nice prospect when winning
his last race at Haydock, and not surprisingly was snapped up by a jumps
yard, though I hope for connections that the 80,000 guineas was well
spent.
Sandy Duff
chestnut gelding Scottish Reel - Not Enough
5
Paul R Webber
I like this horse, not over-faced by his trainer last term, and still won
a bumper, Sandy Duff can develop into a nice hurdles prospect this time
around.
Shotgun Willy
chestnut gelding Be My Native {USA} - Minorette's Girl
5
Paul F Nicholls
Ran well in bumpers last term when on the weak side. Can win over hurdles,
if he’s mature enough to handle the rigors of the game
Special Agenda
bay gelding Torus - Easter Blade
5
Noel T Chance
Winner of an three Irish point to points, and should be up to winning over
hurdles, but like many of these will be a much better proposition next
season.
Sweet Kari
bay gelding Lashkari - Sucre Fan
4
Simon E H Sherwood
Winner of an Irish point to point, and should be up to winning over a trip
this season over hurdles
Tees Components
bay gelding Risk Me - Lady Warninglid
4
Mary Reveley
As yet unraced individual, nicely bred, and wont be over-faced by Mary
Reveley, should find a race
Tenseesee {FR}
bay gelding Murmure {FR} - Chattanoogachoo
4
Nicky J Henderson
Recently arrived from France after being successful over hurdles and
fences {3 times}, looks an interesting long term prospect to race in
England this season
The Extra Man
bay gelding Sayaarr {USA} - Chez Georges
5
Mick J Ryan
Lost his way after winning a bumper. He is nicely handicapped over hurdles
and exploit that mark if he’s matured
Toggi Dancer {NZ}
bay gelding Victory Dance - Solfatara {NZ}
6
Nicky G Richards
Useful bumper horse who a couple last term. Should win over obstacles this
season, an may appreciate a trip
Ulundi

Unraced half brother to Wince. Interesting recruit to jumping, if taking
to the game
Via de la Valle
chestnut gelding Nearly a Rose - Willabelle
5
Nicky J Henderson
Winner of an Irish point to point, and should be up to winning over
hurdles this term
Warwick {GER}
bay colt Aspros - Wladislawa {GER}
4
Mary Reveley
Decent form on the flat in Germany, Warwick is the sort of animal Mary
Reveley places well over hurdles. A useful acquisition
Willy Willy
chestnut gelding Master Willie {USA} - Monsoon
6
Dai L Williams
An expensive purchase, buy Dai William’s standard, nice looking
individual and one to note for the season, maybe in handicap company
