Kiely/McManus Complete Double in Bumper
The betting suggested that the bumper was a match between Taking Stock and Rinceoir Rua with good word too for Presenting Massey and these three had it to themselves from some way out with the former prevailing by one and a quarter lengths under Padraig Roche, to bring up a double for trainer John Kiely and owner J P McManus. Wed 18th Feb
It's nice, they are lovely horses and I am very lucky to have them. Mr McManus is the best employer in the country . he has so many horses. The loose horse didn't help Taking Stock but we hope he'll go on from here.
John E Kiely
He's a real chaser in the making. He deserved that as he has been unlucky in the past. He settled much better today too as that has been a problem in some of his races. The better ground and the fact they went a good gallop helped.
John E Kiely
He might have his holidays now. He is a horse for next year and I look forward to him. (EM)
