Review gowran park 14th May

Aidan O'Brien's juveniles have really started to find their stride and Lord High Admiral won at the first time of asking in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden at Gowran ParkThu 14th May

Long Wait is over

Owner Kate Deegan, wife of trainer Paul Deegan, saw her racing colours carried to success for the first time at Gowran tonight, when her Long Wait arrived late to win the Early Bird Green Fees at Gowran Park Handicap. Thu 14th May

After race at Roscommon Mon, 15th Aug, 2011 (1st)

That's some result, I couldn't believe it. He is a bit of a pup but I always knew he had the ability. This was his last chance today and it just shows you the way things go. Joseph gave him a great ride, he kept at him even when he looked beat. I thought Roscommon would suit him as they race towards the gate home (the gate into the parade ring) and I thought he would like that. It's a great achievement for me as I only have eight horses.
