Review punchestown 27th Oct

Noble Prince made a pleasing start to his career over fences with a smooth victory in the Dobbins Panoramic Restaurant Beginners Chase at PunchestownWed 27th Oct

Seafield delivers on 1st go over flights

Runner-up to subsequent bumper winner Sizing Mexico in a 'point' and a half-brother to top chaser Joncol, Seafield was always going to find his true vocation once tackling obstacles and he left his bumper form behind to take the opening Punchestown Event Centre Maiden Hurdle under Alain 'Squeaky' Cawley. Wed 27th Oct

Review curragh 21st Mar

Tommy Stack savoured a remarkable start to the Irish turf Flat season with a 3387-1 four-timer at the Curragh & ndash; spearheaded by Pollen's win in the feature race of the daySun 21st Mar

Robert springs Lincoln shock

Big Robert sprang a 33/1 shock when coming from behind to run out a cosy winner of the Irish Lincolnshire at the Curragh. Sun 21st Mar

After race at Curragh Sun, 21st Mar, 2010 (1st)

His work has always been absolutely brilliant but we were really starting to lose faith with him the way he was running,. I always thought he liked the all-weather but I don't think he does now. The cheekpieces and a brilliant ride from Kieran helped - he just kidded him along. He was going to get an entry to go jumping if he didn't run better today and has just saved himself from a hurdling career for the moment. The last few weeks his work has been outstanding. I'm delighted for (owner)Mark Gittins and Kieran.
