Reports in which Gua Du Large (FR) was mentioned

San Salvador best as Joseph dominates

The Strings & Things Rated Novice Chase at Listowel was a real triumph for the Joseph O'Brien yard as they were responsible for the first two home. Bred by his mother Anne Marie and owned by the Annus Mirabilis Syndicate San Salvador (9s into 15/2) beat 'neighbour' Jordans (6/4 out to 2/1 favourite) by a length and three parts. Sun 22nd Sep

De Bromhead grabs Tramore winner in finale

Gua Du Large came with a well-timed challenge under Rachael Blackmore to land the concluding rated novice chase at Tramore today for trainer Henry de Bromhead, at his local track. Sun 21st Apr

Idas Boy wins on chase debut

Gigginstown House Stud's Idas Boy (10/11f) made a winning chase debut at Cork today, easily landing the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Beginners Chase for trainer Noel Meade and jockey Bryan Cooper. Sun 16th Oct

"Incredible half an hour" for de Bromhead and Blackmore at Fairyhouse

Half-an-hour on from the brilliance of Honeysuckle again in the Hatton’s Grace, there was further Fairyhouse joy for Henry de Bromhead and Rachael Blackmore in the Grade A BARONERACING.COM Handicap Hurdle with 25/1 chance Gua Du Large. Sun 28th Nov

Gua Du Large another for Blackmore and de Bromhead

Supporters of 5/6 favourite Gua De Large would have been very hopeful from an early stage in the 4-year-old maiden hurdle as the Kapgarde gelding settled much better in second than his free-running market rival Gjoumi. Thu 26th Nov

"Three-quarters fit" Queens Brook makes winning start over flights

Cheltenham bumper third placer Queens Brook delivered at the first time of asking over flights, but not as easy as odds of 2/7 suggested she would in the Irish Stallion Farms EBF Maiden Hurdle at Fairyhouse. Sat 10th Oct

After race at Tramore Sun, 21st Apr, 2024 (1st)

The better ground definitely helped him and Rachael was great on him. He was a bit unlucky in Fairyhouse but it's nice to get him back winning here. He jumped well today and I have no immediate plan for him. Hopefully he'll just keep progressing now.

Henry De Bromhead

After race at Thurles Thu, 26th Nov, 2020 (1st)

I'm delighted with that - he is still very babyish and it is all new to him. He is a nice horse obviously and hopefully he'll keep progressing. Rachael said he was pretty green when he came off it (the bridle) and she was happy with him. I'm delighted to get the win for Robcour and we'll aim for something at Christmas.
