Qatar's Blitz wins Dundalk opener

we always thought she’d win a maiden. She didn’t handle the soft ground at the Curragh but her last run up here was good. She’s very quick and quick out of the stalls. The last day we dropped her in but she got trapped wide and couldn’t get in and today Colin said he’d just keep it simple. It’s very important for those fillies to win their maidens and hopefully she could improve a little bit over the winter. I haven’t spoke yet to Peter (Molony, Qatar Racing) or the team yet but I’d say that could be it (finished) for the year.

Red All Star scores for Keane/Leonard

he’s a grand horse but gets very wound up when he goes racing so we take him out early as the less fuss the better. He had a bad draw the last day and had to be bustled up to get a position and then he ran too keen but I think he’s well handicapped and could win a couple with a bit of luck. Killian reckons five is his trip but I don’t think there is anything in the next couple of weeks so we might chance him over six as well.

Music Claims seventh Dundalk win

he’s an amazing old horse and loves the surface. Coming back in trip was never going to be an issue for him and to be honest I thought he had a great chance again tonight. Pat (Flynn) was very happy with him beforehand and he’s always going to be competitive in that level of race. He’s a grand horse for those races and was well placed by Pat.

Welsh based Dougan lands another AW win

Brabazon 'excited' by 33/1 winner

we’ve always liked this horse a lot and his last run was on sticky heavy ground and he didn’t like it. He probably wouldn’t be mad about the all-weather either but it’s getting late in the year. I think he’s a horse for next year - his dam was second in a Group 2 so we’re entitled to dream a bit with him. He’s a lovely raw horse and the fact that he’s able to do that on his third run has got us excited. I’d say he’s a good ground horse on the grass. Apart from it being a lovely win tonight it’s great experience for him and should crown him. He’s a big baby and has got another gear he doesn’t know he has yet and that’s why we’re so excited.

My Direction wins Dundalk finale

that’s brilliant. He’s run up to his form and absolutely loves this surface. If he hadn’t run well tonight we were going to give him a break but he’s obviously not ready. We’ll keep him going and pick something again in about three weeks time.
