Golden Pearl worth waiting for

She's a nice filly and well bred. She was quite backward and we took our time with her. Michael (Enright) has been very patient with her. He's a great man to train for and there is no pressure. We bought her at the Orby sales this time last year and she's a smart filly. Shane said they went steady and sprinted. She got a bit unbalanced and rolled around but when the penny dropped she hit the line well. I like her and she's done well to do that considering she's still on the weak side. It's beautiful ground out there and it's good to get her out.

Snowy Scene bags that elusive victory

Bebhinn impresses in Listed company

Stars align again for Lily's Prince

It was a carbon copy of last year as he was drawn one. I hoped he was coming back to form. He's ground dependent. He likes it nice, not too quick, and he got the job done again. He was lucky to get the breaks today again. It's great for Martin (Sheridan) who has been a great supporter of mine.

Saga Bolton toughs it out in Fairyhouse

He idles a bit in front. He'll probably go hurdling now, he'll school anyway, that's as long as he's not claimed. Kevin thinks hurdling might suit him as it'll help him concentrate. He's not dishonest but he just watches everyone's business but his own.

Hudson's Bay strides his way to victory

Halford and Foley seal Fairyhouse double

His rating entitled him to be there. He's a game little fella. He's taking his racing well and getting better with racing. Dusty (Shane Foley) tells me he likes good ground so there is no reason he wouldn't go around Dundalk. He's lightly raced and very genuine.
