It’s unbelievable, quite incredible to be honest. We had a plan, something similar to Leopardstown. There were probably 26 Plan As in the race, but at least we got to use our Plan A. Richie was absolutely incredible on her — I don’t think anyone could have ridden her any better than that. Training greyhounds is our career. We have about 40 and we were lucky enough to win a couple of English Derbys. I only train three horses. It’s off the planet to win here — I can’t believe it. We needed a miracle. Heaven Help Us is her name and heaven has helped us today.

it’s a great thrill to win Paddy’s race. We were neighbours and when I was a young lad he would often bring me to the races and make sure I got home as well. she was second here in a Grade 1. I wasn’t sure she was as mad about the fences. She’ll do it for you but was not really in love with it so we said we’d switch her back to hurdles. Niall Prendergast does all the work with her and Richie (Condon) came in to ride her out so with Danny not available he got the ride and can claim 7lb. She might go for a Pertemps Qualifier at Punchestown to try and get her into Cheltenham. I’d love to have a runner at the Festival. We were beaten in a final at Shelbourne last night when the gaps didn’t open so this is fantastic.

I'm over the moon, absolutely thrilled. It was a very good race as the two other mares in it were black-type mares as well. David said she jumped great in company. Obviously the race in Sligo brought her forward. It's just magic. I've one horse, that's her, and where she's been bringing us is just incredible. We ended up in the Grade 1 last year by accident. I was looking for something to do, just entered her in it and hey presto she finished second!. We had a great time and her run in the Supreme at Cheltenham was good. She met a lot of trouble but ran well. She's a wonderful mare and she's very easy to do. I've given most of my life to the dogs and this is a great release. I'm still busy with the dogs but not at the level we used to be as I haven't pushed it as much as we used to. I said to John Turner there that we'll have great sport now. We can enter her into all the big fancy races now that she's won her maiden chase. We got such a buzz last year and John lets me do that kind of thing. When you line up in those good races your knees are knocking and it's wonderful. She's just amazing and I think she can improve again.

It is some buzz as I bred her and have her all the way through. Niall Prendergast is a wonderful young man and I couldn’t praise him highly enough. He comes in every morning, and rides her out,.
