Quotes on Democracy (IRE)

You’d have to be very happy with that on very deep ground. He travelled very well and, when Wayne dropped him down to go, he was a little bit lost on that ground but he would never have seen that ground before. It was a good education for him. He has plenty of speed and I’d say he’s a classy horse. He’s big and he’s strong and very laid-back. There is a Listed race (First Flier) back here in a few weeks and we could look at that.

Quotes on Giuseppe Cassioli (GB)

It was a beautiful ride again by Keithen. He said that he wasn't trying very hard early on, but he got into it then. He said he parked the bus and when he heard the horses coming behind him he went on again. It's a lovely win and I'm delighted. He'll go to Galway on the Tuesday for a 50-80 over seven furlongs. It should suit him nicely. He's consistent, he's healthy, and he's keeping the weight on this year whereas in previous years it was hard to keep the weight on him for some reason.

Quotes on Global Energy (GB)

I'm delighted. He had a little problem, we solved it, and he's just got better and better,. I have to thank Ted Durcan because, even though he's won over a mile-four and a mile-two, he just reckoned he wasn't staying and to drop him back to a mile. I did and he just loved it out there. . Robbie said he wasn't going to let anyone by him, that he was just having a ball up front. . I put him in the Hunt Cup at Ascot, John loves having runners there. He was too low in the handicap, I don't know what he'll get for this and I don't know if he'll get enough to squeak in. . That opens up loads of options though.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Fort Vega (FR)

I was a little bit worried, being a Lope De Vega, whether the ground would be a tad fast for him. We decided to let him take his chance because it was such a good race for him. I'll talk to John (Lavery, brother), I know where he'd like to go. They love having runners at Ascot and I'd say the Jersey could be an option. John is in Portugal, so I'll talk to him and we'll make a plan. He's in the Guineas next week but you are jumping from a handicap to a Group 1. I think the weather is to be very warm as well, if it came up dead soft I might chance it. He's a gorgeous horse, you can put him anywhere and do anything with him as he's just so easy.

She’s hardy and handles the ground. I had a couple in it and was going to run one of the others and Rory said to run her. I’d forgotten that she’d run well on soft ground at Tipperary. I don’t think she’ll run again at the Curragh on Wednesday but that could change!

Quotes on Bella Colombia (IRE)

She's a lovely filly. I brought her up here a couple of weeks ago just to see if she would like the surface. I thought it was a nice opportunity to start her off until I saw Ashwiyaa in it and I was a bit worried. She does everything professionally and is a lovely, straightforward filly. She has been a no-nonsense filly, loves being in training and does everything very easily. She's a good-moving filly and I think better ground suits her. She flicks over that top of the ground. I was nearly going to enter her for the race on Saturday, the five furlong Listed race up the Curragh, but I thought it could be a bit greedy or something. We will see what the lads want to do. We are in no hurry with her, she has done the job and we will see what is available. She would be for sale. She would be an ideal one for America, I'd say, the way she settled.
