After race at Clonmel Thu, 5th Sep, 2019 (1st) 
I'm surprised she hadn't won this year but luckily the ground stayed good. She might go to Listowel on Sunday if the ground stays yielding. We were disappointed with her at Tramore the last day and for some reason she ran poorly. Her previous two runs were very good and she has come back to herself today.

I was a bit worried about the 9lbs but she came out of the race very well the last day and it wasn't a great race, it was a weak enough race. Hopefully the handicapper won't be too hard on her now and we might bring her back again in a couple of weeks. She's a good dual purpose mare and we'll give her a break shortly. She should win plenty more races next summer.

She's been a bit unlucky all summer. Normally she would have been left off by now but she hadn't won and we knew there was a race in her so we said we'd chance her up here, so we're delighted - it's a long trip,. She'll probably come back up in a few weeks. She's very versatile as regards trip and ground and everything. She's a fun horse.

She is a consistent mare and I was a bit worried about the ground as it wasn't as slow as I thought it was. She'll probably go to Galway for an 80-109 on the first day or she'll run on the flat. You need to produce her late as she has one burst and that's it and he (brother Paddy Kennedy) was lucky with the run he got down the inside; we had luck today but were unlucky a few other days. As long as Paddy keeps winning on him he'll keep the ride!. I only have a few for the track but I've a lot of young horses and I'm kept busy with point to point horses and breaking horses. I'm only getting started but have had a few point to point winners already but this is my first on the track.
