After race at Down Royal Fri, 30th Aug, 2024 (1st)  When we actually bought her, we bought her to go jumping. Things went so well on the Flat, we have nearly waited a year to do it. . She has still a bit to learn, but she has the aptitude and the guts and the will to do it. She's a really, really nice filly. She attacks her hurdles. . I don't know the strength in depth of it, but she could only do what she did. She has a bit of class there and that will certainly take her a good bit in the jumps racing. . Even though she was a little bit green, Alex said there was plenty of room for improvement jumping-wise. I'm delighted and very relieved.  John C McConnell

After race at Dundalk Wed, 14th Feb, 2024 (1st)  Yokkell is super and would nearly make you emotional. She's just very genuine and very tough. She's a winner. A mile-and-a-half is probably her trip and that extended 1m2f is just long enough. She doesn't owe us anything but you wouldn't know where she could end up on Good Friday, maybe at Newcastle. Hopefully, she can't be hit too hard by the handicapper. Siobhan gets on very well with her and gave her a peach of a ride just in behind the leaders. I think she knew from halfway down the straight she was going to get up. They are a very good team. John C McConnell

After race at Dundalk Fri, 15th Dec, 2023 (1st)  we thought that distance was what she wanted. She can be a little bit keen, but Siobhan is very good at switching her off. We knew if she switched off she would get home no problem. I said to her beforehand that she would be like a little motorbike going through them!. We thought we had a solid chance and couldn't believe her price again. She is very, very genuine and is in a good shape physically. As I said before, I got her from previous connections in good shape so I haven't had to do much and she obviously loves it up here. She is going to get hit a bit now from the handicapper but is entitled to be. We have trip options and we actually bought her to go jumping and that is something to look forward to in the future.

After race at Dundalk Wed, 6th Dec, 2023 (1st)  I haven't had her that long and she was in great nick when I got her. She ran very well here the last day and we thought she'd run well here today as well but it was a very strong heat so we weren't really sure. She's just a very straightforward filly and I got her in great shape so I haven't had to do anything other than not mess her up. She shouldn't have been that price and I think it was maybe the strength of the race, other John C McConnell

After race at Ballinrobe Mon, 24th Jul, 2023 (1st)  She's ultra-consistent, she's picked up a cheque every time in the last 12 or 13 runs. She was very honest again today. Colin said she found a bit for him under pressure and that the short run-in down the bit of a hill suited her, she was able to keep her momentum up. There's nothing really suitable for her at Galway, so we'll see how she comes out of this and pick something out for her in a couple of weeks' time. It's a gift having a horse like her and she's a great yardstick to have in the yard. Jarlath P Fahey

After race at Tipperary Fri, 26th Aug, 2022 (1st)  she has been very very consistent but when you're that consistent and don't win, you start to worry whether or not it would happen. She has shown a nice turn of foot and has been consistent around that trip in three-year-old handicaps. Whether or not she can step up against the older ones, we don't know but we'll find out as the year progresses. I wouldn't rule out jumping hurdles with her and the way she won tonight we'll stick to the flat for another while. Triona Burbage and a few of her friends from Portarlington own her and I'm delighted for them. Jarlath P Fahey
