Quotes on French Company (IRE)

He's a right little horse, he's after winning four. He has won three up here for us. He has won well and it was great. A good man on his back and that is his first ride for me, he is well able to horseback. Fair play to him. He will of course have a stint up here over the winter.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Arch Enemy (IRE)

That is unexpected as I thought she'd need the run. I think Sean taking the 10lb off was the winning of it and it was a serious ride for a 10lb claimer. They went hard, he came with one run and it was a brilliant ride. Sean rode her once at Dundalk in the past and, while you're under pressure all the time to put up the top lads, Sean has been riding work for me on two-year-olds all year and is a big help. She was dropping back in trip and I knew she'd hit the line well but it's a slight bit of a shock she has won. She was a cheap purchase, has now won four times and is a little star. I'm pretty confident she will win over hurdles too. I'm based in Shercock, Co Cavan, it took four hours yesterday to come down and we stayed over last night. The owner Philip 'Nixys' Clarke owns my local bar in Bailieborough and is a big supporter of mine. I have six or seven in training.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Lady Arwen (GB)

she looked like she idled so Jake was dead right to keep riding and he kept her going. Losing any momentum would have given the runner-up a chance. I'm delighted. I only got her two weeks before her run in the Curragh and it was her owner's (Pat Rohan, from Killaloe) plan to run in the Curragh. I didn't know much about her but she is genuine and lovely to train. Six furlongs at the Curragh was a probably a little short but seven (furlongs) is ideal. Thank God we found a winnable race and maybe Galway will be on the horizon now.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Explorers Way (IRE)

The form of his last run (third in Navan) has been franked. He's a grand horse and it just took us a while to get to know him. He likes to be fresh and well on the day of the race, but he gets 1m2f well. I'm sorry for Jack Kearney that he couldn't do, he has just got a little heavy and the weight was too light for him. James is a very able replacement, he is very good. I've admired James for a long time and that is his first winner for me. I haven't been able to get him some of the times I wanted him. Jack was our go to all the time but, unfortunately, Jack is going to be going over jumps. We are going to have to get him a few jumpers!. I had great faith in James today and he rode a lovely race. He was in the right place the whole way and it was nice to watch. The syndicate are mainly from Sligo and they are all here. We bought the horse at the Tattersalls Online Sale back in April. That's his fourth run for us, so he is going the right way and I think he'll give them lots of fun.
