Hi Reader We have three cracking young horses this week. All three won recently and look upwardly mobile. Check out eye catchers for this week below:
View Eye Catchers List Here KikijoKikijo- 1st in 1.20 Sandown 06/12/25Kikijo won the pertemps qualifier at Sandown so he’s qualified for the final at the Cheltenham Festival. He won rather comfortably here and looks like a horse that remains ahead of the handicapper. A seven pound hike to a mark of 134 is perfect for getting in at the foot of the weights in the final next march. Kikijo won around the Cheltenham old course at the November meeting and is a strong stayer over three miles. Soft ground suits him best but he has run well on good ground too. It will be interesting to see if joint trainers Philip Hobbs and Johnson White give him a break now (protect current mark) and then build him back up for his next run in the Pertemps Final next march. Charismatic KidCharismatic Kid - 1st in 3.27 Navan 06/12/25Charismatic Kid won from pillar to post on his first run in a bumper. It takes a proper genuine horse to lead all the way to win on heavy ground at Navan. It was a cracking run with winning jockey Ray Barron saying “he's as good a horse I've sat on for a long time”. The owners decided to cash in putting Charismatic Kid up for sale at the Cheltenham December Sale. Gordon Elliott won out by buying Charismatic Kid for £300,000. We can expect plenty of improvement once Gordon works his magic on this son of Affinisea. If Charismatic Kid can progress to win next time out then he will become a genuine champion bumper contender be that at Cheltenham, Aintree or Punchestown next spring. Pure SteelPure Steel- 1st in 11.50 Punchestown 11/12/25Jimmy Mangan has found another good chaser in Pure Steel. He came forward massively from his first chase for a win at Punchestown. Pure Steel is a natural over fences and it takes a horse with some speed to win around Punchestown. Jimmy won the same Punchestown Novice Chase with Spillane’s Tower in 2023. It will be interesting to see if the JP McManus owner Pure Steel follows the same route as Spillane’s Tower who ended his novice season by winning the Grade 1 WillowWarm Gold Cup at the Fairyhouse Festival. That is a long way off at the moment however Pure Steel is up to a rating of 139 so it would only take another good win to say for sure that this is a novice chaser who can win Grade 1 or 2 novice chase races. .

Hi Reader A dramatic weekend of racing action just passed. Constitution Hill and The New Lion fell in the Fighting Fifth. Wendigo and Romeo Coolio impressed in the novice chase division. Teahupoo and Ballyburn are rightly at the top of the Stayers hurdle market having fought out a great finish in the Hatton's Grace Hurdle at Fairyhouse. I picked out two horses this week that finished second in handicaps at Newbury. Check out eye catchers for this week below: View Eye Catchers List Here Leader...
