Quotes on Ceanndana (IRE)
They are a great bunch of lads and to be honest with you, they have been waiting a while. The horse is good in this grade and he has been knocking on the door, he deserved to get one. It was great that it happened today and Keith gave him a great ride. He handled the ground really well, wants good ground. He's in his bracket. A couple of times he has been found kind of wanting, just got lonely in front one day and just little small reasons for getting beaten. He's no star, but 0-95 is his grade. Horses are flying, thank God. Whatever suits will go to Galway and we will be there, hopefully.

Quotes on Red Ball Of Fire (IRE)
She was tough. She didn’t really like the ground but she just toughed it out. She stayed going well. Hugh was very good on her. He gave her a chance when things weren’t working and she ran on for him then. I thought he excelled on her.

Quotes on Rightfolksplease (IRE)
He is a grand horse and I actually don't think he is ungenuine, I think he barely gets a trip. He does idle a little in front, but I think fences will be the making of him. He will just be able to hang on and travel a bit longer. Hurdles maybe leave him a bit flat out. . I wouldn't say he had much in hand!

Quotes on Natural Breeze (IRE)
He has been placed so many days and he deserved that. It's his second win and he has been pretty consistent, he is a great little horse. He was down the bottom of the handicap and we took seven off with Conor's claim. It's great for Conor, that's his third winner and he is improving away. He probably wants another year of experience under his belt to really get going. He is definitely on the up. That's 41 winners now and it's my best season to date. It was lovely to hit the 40 winners mark the other day. I've been fifth in the trainers table nearly all year and while behind me is something like 18, I'm still miles behind the first four. For a yard of 50 odd horses at the level we are at, it's magic. I've got massive support from owners and I have wonderful staff. Long may it last.

Quotes on Baltinglass Hill (IRE)
He was very unlucky to get beat in Navan where it looked like he had it well won and made a mistake at the last. His jumping won the race in Killarney under a brilliant ride from Rachael Blackmore, and Darragh (O’Keeffe) was equally good on him this evening. He’s only a four-year-old but he’s growing up and learning his trade. He hasn’t won by far and hopefully won’t get a massive penalty and we’ll find another handicap for him. I thought the ground had gone (too soft) for him but when I came here I couldn’t believe my luck. Jim Guilfoyle (owner) has been with me for years and we’ve had loads of winners together and he’s a fantastic supporter.
