Stable Tour at Toberona for 2005/2006 Season

• Gilt Benefit
  Lovely little mare bought by Gerry Hogan for me in Doncaster. Won at Limerick the other day, seems to have plenty of pace and goes in any ground.Hopefully will be a nice money-spinner.
  
  
• Kill Devil Hill
  He was very unlucky not to have collected a Grade 1 and Grade 2 Novice Hurdle last year getting touched off in the Champion Novice both in Fairyhouse and Punchestown. He will go chasing and you will see the best of him over fences.He will be aimed at the Drinmore and go to Pj Moriarty hopefully from there.
  
  
• Kymandjen
  2 Unlucky not to win the Thyestes in January. He's a great jumper who loves soft ground. He will have a similar campaign to last season and will possibly end up going for the Topham at Aintree.
  
  
• Merisandre
  Very impressive point-to point winner. Jumps really well and I would say he will go in any ground. Goes straight over fences and will hopefully be good enough for the good staying novice chases.
  
• Mrs. Wallensky
  Good tough mare who goes over fences this season. She has been schooling well and goes on any ground. We are going to aim her at Listed mares chases. She wants two and a half to three miles.
  
  
• Old Flame
  Goes for the good two to two and a half mile handicap chases on soft ground over the winter.
  
  
• Russian Buck
  A tough horse who likes it soft. He jumps fences well and should be able to pick up a beginners' chase. If the ground is soft enough two miles will probably be alright for him but otherwise he will want further.
  
• Say Again
  Has had problems but he is back in and seems to be moving brilliantly.He is a top-class horse if we can get him right.
  
  
• Sirius Storm
  Won a handicap hurdle at Naas last month and is entered for Cheltenham's meeting next week. Two and a half miles in heavy ground was too far for him at Naas last Saturday but he is a far stronger horse this season than he was last term. We think a lot of him and he could be an improver.
  
  
• The Roney Man
  Won his only two point-to-point starts last season and has shown us a lot of ability. He will run in a bumper shortly and then go hurdling. Next season it will be fences.
