Quotes on Blaze The Way (IRE)
I like him, he had a lovely run the first day and is a half-brother to a good horse (Grade 2 winner Enniscoffey Oscar),. I'm delighted with him and for the lads (Brian and Tom Groarke, part owners) who are from Meath. I'd say we'll wait to go hurdling until next season and might go for a winners' bumper. We'll talk to the boys and see what they want to do but he'll be a grand horse over a hurdle and has plenty size to jump a fence. He battled well and is a saleable horse.

Quotes on Toor Khov (IRE)
I took him out on Saturday because the ground was too quick in Mallow. The step up in trip suited and he’s very honest. That ground is on the easy side of good and even a bit slower would do. He probably wouldn’t want deep winter ground. If he stays in good form then it will all depend on the ground if we keep going with him.

Quotes on Western Zara (IRE)
They went an unmerciful gallop! She was very good at home jumping-wise and she jumped great. She had lots of schooling done with Johnny Berry when she was a youngster and she seems to be better over a fence. It was a good effort in the ground for the pace they went - it was proper winter ground and she showed a great attitude. I was wanting a lead but Richie had one for as long as he could, and couldn't take her back. We're living in the present with her and that's why she went over fences now. Hopefully she will be a nice mare for fences for the season and she has won on nice ground over hurdles.

Quotes on Presenting Doyen (IRE)
That was fantastic. It was just the way the race panned out and the ride Rachael gave her won the race. They went an awful gallop in front and they all died off, and Rachael came through. It’s the way Effernock Fizz wins races but it just worked out in Presenting Doyen’s favour today. The owners are from Kerry, so it’s brilliant for them.

Quotes on Doitforjane Sid (IRE)

Quotes on The Story So Far (IRE)
The owners are local to me in Ballingarry so it is great for them,. The horse hit a flat spot turning in and that happened to him in Navan too before staying on. He is an out-and-out three-miler so it was a bonus to win a bumper. He is a very nice horse, we bought him as a foal and he'll probably go jumping a hurdle now.

Quotes on Where's Frankie (IRE)
Three mile and four seemed to suit him well around here and the bit of rain that came during the week was a blessing as he probably wouldn’t have run if we didn’t get that. He’ll go to Fairyhouse on Easter Monday for the 0-140 handicap, and it will probably be holiday time after that. He loves Fairyhouse and, if he went up in the weights, he could go for the Irish National next year. He’s very genuine and we can always dream.

Quotes on Billy Lee Swagger (IRE)
I thought he’d run a big race in Naas and he gurgled all the way up the straight. I probably had the wrong bit in his mouth as he’d never done it before. I was really happy with him and he was working really well at home. The day he was fourth in the maiden hurdle in Gowran was a good run and I thought he’d go on the ground here. It’s been a mighty year altogether and it’s our best season for winners. I’ve great owners, great staff and supporters and we’re working very hard at it. The Blind Squirrels have horses in Ireland and England and are a really well-run syndicate. Prince Zaltar was my first horse for the lads and this is the second one. It’s great for Conor as well. That’s his second winner and nice to be able to support him as well.

Quotes on Born Bright (IRE)
I'm just so appreciative for these types of races for small trainers. I knew there was a bit of negative press about them but for the likes of me it really gives us a chance not to be competing with the Man Utds and Man Citys of this world when it comes to racing,. She won a point-to-point and my son got to ride her in a few bumpers but she wants good ground and it went soft in Sligo and Listowel. This was a race that really suited and it was local. She'll run away over hurdles now. She's home-bred, her sister Born Famous won six in Scotland and got black-type and Born Braver won two for Gavin Cromwell. She's the third one and we've a few more fillies at home so we're delighted.

Quotes on Plain Or Battered (IRE)
That's Conor's fifth winner. He started with me just over a year ago and started with no experience. For the chances he is getting his strike rate has been extremely good. He is good value for his claim and this horse is an ideal one for him to ride as he has plenty of experience,. I got him off the Dooly's and Noel is still involved with him. The Dooly's are fabulous people and they gave me the opportunity to buy three horses and I'm really pleased to have them. They are great friends and are lovely people, so I can't say enough thanks to Noel and Jenny Dooly, they are very good to me. He is a winter horse and we have winter ground today. I believe it's summer heavy today and so did Paul Townend and a lot of the senior jockeys, yet the board inside still says soft, yielding in places. The same clerk of the course (Paul Moloney) gave good to yielding in Kilbeggan last night, whereas all the senior jockeys said good, no yielding. There is a huge discrepancies. How are they seeing it as slower than the riders last night and quicker than the riders today. The discrepancy is too big and it doesn't make sense. I'm delighted because my horse is a winter horse and he got heavy ground today. Liz Doyle told me this morning it would be proper soft and she was right. He'll probably get a break now and come back in the winter to go over fences.

Quotes on Tullyhogue Fort (IRE)
He is a grand horse, is very straightforward and I made too much use of him riding him myself in Sligo, when he also nearly tripped on a bend and it just didn't work out. I was saying to Kevin (O'Neill, cousin and assistant) that if he won one race a year, which he has done for the last three, that he'd be ok! He is a low-grade horse, but is rated low enough that he is competitive every day. Myself and Kevin bought him from Paul Cashman and truck away with a few horses ourselves. I run Kilnacrandy Training Facility in Quin (Clare) which is open to the public and pre-train for people.
