After race at Curragh Sun, 11th Sep, 2022 (1st)  It was a long weekend up until this one!. The three horses were going very well at home. Ben (Coen, who rode Safecracker) couldn't ride this one because she only had 8-8, I thought she was well handicapped claiming the 7lb off her. She had been hitting the board and the last day she didn't quite stay over a mile-and-a-half. She travelled really well, got to the front but didn't quite stay. I'd say the soft ground was a help too. Jamie said she was wide all the way but she was travelling, got to the front a bit too soon and in fairness to the second he stayed on well. Safecracker ran a good race and stayed on well. Shane Kelly said Flying Dolphin is coming back, he got a bit stiff and sore after Ascot and it might have been a bit quick. Soft ground for him, being by Zoffany, helped as well. It couldn't have worked out any better. I didn't really care which one won, at that stage I was glad I was coming up this side of the parade ring. It was great, all the owners were there watching together and it was a nice feeling knowing one of them was going to win. J P Murtagh

After race at Curragh Sun, 17th Jul, 2022 (1st)  Ben said when she got to the front she kind of pricked her ears. Instead of going and winning she kind of parked herself a bit,. In fairness to her every time they came to her she battled on well. He said she hit the line well and he knew he'd won. She probably still learning, she has plenty of runs but you can see that she's still a bit starey and it takes a little bit of time for the penny to drop. I think we'll step her up in class now. I was looking for a mile-and-a-quarter maiden but this race stood out and fitted well. It's just great to get her head in front because we always thought a lot of her. She's been hitting the crossbar and when you see the horses that have been around her she deserved to win a race like this. Hopefully she can improve and step up. J P Murtagh
