After race at Punchestown Fri, 27th Apr, 2018 (1st) 
Going to the last I thought oh no we are going to be second again. They have been running brilliantly all week but the ground has just been a bit soft for all of them and I thought it was a bit soft for her but she did it for me. She might not be the best but she’s very brave and she stays. Her last few runs have been a bit disappointing but she hates heavy ground and it was a bit looser today and I put a pair of cheek-pieces on her to get her travelling. Robert said she just didn’t travel in Fairyhouse and it definitely helped her as she was sweet all the way through the race.

My children all thought I was mad running her — they all said she wanted soft ground. I didn't think she'd get in — she was number 12 on the ballot list — but when she got in we said we'd run her. It's great for Ryan — he comes down and rides out for me one day a week. I'm delighted for him to get a Punchestown winner. The only time she was in front was at the line, and she probably needs three miles. I've been running her on the wrong ground as all the family want it good. She smashed a pelvis badly in a point-to-point last year and we are lucky to still have her. The vets did a great job and it's all thanks to John Hyde.

I’m delighted with her and she’s a tough mare. Mark Fahey had her last year for me when we thought she was nice and he took her to go point-to-pointing. She slipped on take off and hurt herself very badly in her point to point run (when pulled up) and credit to the vets in Cork they saved her life. She is a fabulous mare and we’ve always thought a lot of her. She’ll come back here for the mares listed race and is also for sale if anyone wants to buy her - I think she’s a proper filly.
