Easy for Abbey as Obeaux flops
Glenstal Abbey ran out a cosy winner of the Kilberry Novice Hurdle at Navan as hotpot Quinola Des Obeaux flopped badly. Sat 05th Dec
I'm delighted. He stays really well and a proper three miles is what he wants. Davy was always happy on him and it was a proper test today. The ground will decide a lot. He'll have an entry at Cheltenham and we'll see what happens in the meantime.
C A Murphy
He is in a couple of novices over Christmas and we'll have to see as that may come a bit too soon. He has plenty of options anyway and the further they go and the softer the ground the better for him. Thank God today's meeting went ahead.
C A Murphy
He did that very well. He got his conditions today three miles on soft ground. The softer the better for him. The ground will dictate his plans really, if it stays soft we'll keep him on the go or if it dries up we'll wait until the other side of the Summer.
C A Murphy
I'll try and find something similar. I would say you won't get ground soft enough or a race long enough for him,. He's a big baby and showed it today. If he improves as much as I think he can he could be a real nice horse. I'm delighted with him. He's a big raw baby and chasing is his game. He's a half-brother to Kazal and the further he got the better.
C A Murphy
