Harry Derham Stable Tour: 2026/26 Jumps Season Preview

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


Chasing frequently helps horses who travel actually well over obstacles and do not rather see out the journey. There are 12 jumps in a two-mile chase, compared to 8 in an obstacle, which will absolutely help Lario. He has the size and scope to do well over fences. I'm hoping that going after draws out enhancement, as I don't believe we have actually seen the very best of him yet. Could begin at Chepstow on the 5th of November.


You can follow Lario and two other horses in training with Harry Derham Racing for just ₤ 10 per month per horse with the OLBG Racing Club. As well as weekly emails loaded complete of news, you'll get access to backyard gos to, draws for owners badges and a calendar of special occasions.


UPDATE: Won a Beginners Chase at Haydock on 20th December, producing a dazzling round of getting on his chase debut. "He jumped beautifully today, got into a lovely 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 debut for the backyard in a Novice Hurdle at Doncaster and ended up third on only other run last season. Rated 117.


He suffered a pretty bad problem last season and now has 5 screws in his cannon bone. He is back cantering quietly, and we are aiming for his return after Christmas. He is a truly excellent jumper, and I am anticipating him going chasing. I believe on decent ground, he can comprise into a good 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 an Amateur 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 3 runner up areas last season to advance to a handicap mark of 118.


He is definitely going chasing this season. He was constantly a proper jumper of hurdles, so I think going after will draw out some enhancement. Since front-running matched him in his last race, perhaps that will be his method over fences. He probably won't run before Newbury at the end of November/early December in an chase.


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


UPDATE: Finished 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 great 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 obstacle winner including a listed mares novice race. Ran two times at the Cheltenham Festival (23 Champion Bumper, 25 Mares Hurdle). Rated 134.


She's had a sorrowful summertime involving 2 bouts of very bad colic. It was looking extremely not likely she was going to get back, so it's excellent to have her back. She is a skilled mare and is going to go chasing this season. We are yet to school her as she is currently 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

Brentford Hope


Eight-year-old gelding. Camelot x Miss Raven.
The Optimists.
One time antepost favourite 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 difficulties. 100 on the flat.


Brentford Hope is in excellent nick, we simply need the ground to be right. We are going to provide beginner going after a go and if that does not exercise we can return to hurdles.
