Elinor McSharry edited this page 2026-04-30 13:37:09 +08:00


Six-year-old gelding. Nutan x Larmina OLBG Racing Club Winner on the flat in Germany and over difficulties in Britain before being purchased privately for The OLBG Racing Club which is gone to support Harry Derham Racing. Placed 5 times for existing connections, rated 124.

Chasing typically helps horses who take a trip truly well over hurdles and do not quite see out the trip. There are 12 dives in a two-mile chase, compared to 8 in a hurdle, and that will certainly assist Lario. He has the size and scope to do well over fences. I'm hoping that going after highlights enhancement, as I do not believe we've seen the best of him yet. Could start at Chepstow on the 5th of November.

You can follow Lario and 2 other horses in training with Harry Derham Racing for just ₤ 10 per month per horse with the OLBG Racing Club. In addition to weekly e-mails packed complete of news, you'll get access to lawn gos to, draws for owners badges and a calendar of exclusive events.

UPDATE: Won a Beginners Chase at Haydock on 20th December, producing a brilliant round of leaping on his chase launching. "He leapt beautifully today, entered a charming rhythm. Hopefully he can make into a genuine good chaser." - Harry

UPDATE: Sadly suffered a life ending injury at Doncaster on 23rd January

Jus de Citron

Six-year-old gelding. Saint Des Saints x Rapide I. Edward Ware Esq . Won on his launching for the backyard in a Beginner Hurdle at Doncaster and finished third on only other run last season. Rated 117.

He suffered a pretty bad problem last season and now has five screws in his cannon bone. He is back cantering quietly, and we are intending for his return after Christmas. He is a really great jumper, and I am eagerly anticipating him going chasing. I believe on decent ground, he can make up into a great handicap chase possibility.

UPDATE: Finished 7th of 10 in a Handicap Hurdle at Kempton on 26th December

UPDATE: Finished 3rd of 7 on going after launching in a Beginner Handicap Chase at Newcastle on 15th January

UPDATE: Finished 3rd of 7 in a Handicap Chase at Musselburgh on 15th February

Norn Iron

Seven-year-old gelding. Soldier of Fortune x Coco Des Champs. Mr Paul Kelly. One win and three runner up spots last season to progress to a handicap mark of 118.

He is absolutely going chasing this season. He was always a correct jumper of hurdles, so I think chasing will bring out some improvement. Since front-running suited him in his last race, maybe that will be his method over fences. He probably will not run before Newbury at the end of November/early December in a beginner handicap chase.

UPDATE: Finished 2nd of 9 on chasing launching in a Beginners' Handicap Chase at Warwick on 11th December.

UPDATE: 3rd of 4 in a Novices Handicap Chase at Windsor on 1st January

UPDATE: Impressive winner of a Novices' Limited Handicap Chase at Sandown on 31st January

UPDATE: Won a Handicap Chase in good design at Sandown on 7th March

Queens Gamble

Seven-year-old mare. Getaway x Gambling Girl. Frost and Galvin. Two time NHF winner and 3 time hurdle winner consisting of a noted mares beginner race. Ran two times at the Cheltenham Festival (23 Champion Bumper, 25 Mares Hurdle). Rated 134.

She's had a wretched summer season including two bouts of extremely bad colic. It was looking exceedingly unlikely she was going to get back, so it's excellent to have her back. She is a gifted mare and is going to go chasing this season. We are yet to school her as she is presently even more behind in her preparation.

UPDATE: Finished 3rd in a Noted Mares' Novices' Chase at Bangor on 12th November

UPDATE: Finished 3rd of 6 in a Novices' Limited Handicap Chase at Musselburgh on 1st February

UPDATE: Won a Listed Mares' Novices Chase at Wincanton on 14th February

UPDATE: Finished 2nd of 5 in a Handicap Chase at Doncaster on 28th February

Brentford Hope

Eight-year-old gelding. Camelot x Miss Raven. The Optimists. One time antepost preferred for the Derby, 3 time winner on the flat and 5 time winner over hurdles. Runner as much as Constitution Hill at Cheltenham in January. Rated 139 over obstacles. 100 on the flat.

Brentford Hope remains in great nick, we just need the ground to be right. We are going to provide novice chasing a go and if that doesn't work out we can go back to obstacles.
