After race at Bellewstown Fri, 1st Jul, 2022 (1st)

She travelled lovely. She's a good little filly, she won in Sligo and the handicapper gave her 15lb - I wouldn't give as much to the mother-in-law! In hindsight it was the best thing that ever happened. She ran a cracker in Sligo there and Gearoid Brouder gave her a lovely ride and she just got caught 10 days ago. I was going to leave her for Galway but she was kicking the door down so we like coming up here and taking a few pound off the Meath boys!. I think she will go on to Galway - she will get the seven (furlongs). That would be the dream. I only have two wins, I only took the licence out last June. We were just feeling our way last year. Wesley (Joyce) is well worth his 7lb claim, he's a great little jockey and more than capable. I give all them young fellas a chance, they need a chance. In time to come they might be at the top and they won't forget me.
