Thu 01st Aug
Monty’s Miracle was an all the way winner of the 1m 6f maiden at Killarney at odds of 14/1, proving too strong for the market leaders Run For Mary (11/4) and Gardens Of Babylon (4/6 fav). The step-up in trip seemed to bring out the best in the Shamardal filly, who is related to smart stayers including Naughty Or Nice and Dark Crusader, and she came forward a good deal from her Bellewstown third-placed finish to score by two lengths and three quarter of a length.

He's a nice horse and he's been in good form all season long. It's nice to get his second win today. He was just beaten in a couple of graded races so he only barely qualified for today's race. Derek gave him a lovely ride. It worked out well for him, there was plenty of pace on. He's had a good year and it's nice to finish off with a win. We think he might stay a bit further next season and he's big enough to jump a fence so he has loads of options. Derek said he was flat out most of the way and he came good in the straight for him. The leader went very quick in Limerick and won so we were a little bit worried about him getting away again because he looked very good that day. Today was probably a hotter race and we had a couple of horses to take us to him. I'd say the race worked out very well for us and Derek gave him a lovely ride. The way he races and the way he finishes his races he should stay a bit further.

He did well to win because it was only his third run ever and I thought he'd probably come on a bit from it,. It was nice to see him go and do that. He jumped well. They went slow and got racing in front of him but he went and got them in fairness to him. There is a winners race in Fairyhouse and you also have the graded race at Leopardstown. We'll see. I thought he went to the line well. He hadn't run for a long time and he'd be entitled to come on for it. He had a few problems I think but he has ability.
