William Hill Formby Novices' Hurdle
He was very good at Wetherby the other day when he hadn't had the perfect preparation. He got jarred up in a racecourse gallop at Worcester so I had to sit on him for a month. He wasn't fit for his last race so he did it pretty nicely. He's a bold, strong horse and I'm expecting a good show. Kielan Woods will ride and he's the one I'm most excited about other than The Jukebox Man.
The Jukebox Man
2.30 Kempton, December 26
Ladbrokes King George VI Chase
We're going to Kempton with a horse we have huge faith in and couldn't have in any better shape. We weren't ready for Haydock, but he showed his exuberance and showed he's still a power-packed package of aggression and ability. He displayed those attributes superbly at Haydock and has come out of it looking a million dollars. Kempton is made for him and the faster they go the better. If you asked me where I'd like to run him it would be at Kempton over three miles.

Pallinc Lincolnshire National Handicap Chase
Sound And Fury is our Lincolnshire National horse. He won at Carlisle earlier this season but Market Rasen is the plan over Christmas.

Ladbrokes 'Best Odds Guaranteed In Racing' Handicap Hurdle
He's been in great form and he'll be going for three in a row in the handicap. He's massively on the improve and he's been winning left-handed when he wants to go the other way around.

Ladbrokes Wayward Lad Novices' Chase
He's got an entry in the Wayward Lad and at Aintree at Boxing Day in a novice handicap chase, but on first thinking, we'll see where he sits in the Wayward Lad. The ground may be on the quicker side, but it looks competitive while not an outstanding running. We'd like to see where he sits in that sphere.
Kalkbrenner 3.00 Newbury, December 29
Coral Challow Novices' Hurdle
He'll go to Newbury and was only just touched off over the course and distance last time out. We're building from the bottom and we've got some great novice hurdlers. Our novice chase division could be awesome next season.

RaceRideCheltenham 'Junior' National Hunt Flat Race
We won't have many at Cheltenham on New Year's Day, for some reason a lot of our horses haven't quite fitted into running at Cheltenham. Some years they do, some years they don't. He's definitely running and we like him.
