Quotes on Cleatus Poolaw (GB)
he’s a grand honest horse and probably a chaser in the making. Whatever he does this year will be a bonus. He stays well and I’d say it would be no problem for him to step right up to three miles.

Quotes on Drumgill (IRE)
He got a bit of confidence after winning the last day and just got away with the ground, he probably wouldn't want it any softer than that. . He was probably getting a bit lonesome in front. It helped that I didn't get bumped around, I got things easy so I was able to ride the race how I liked. It's a family operation and everyone contributes. It's not easy to produce winners of these kind of races on a regular basis, it takes a lot of doing and you have to work hard. We have good facilities, a variety of gallops, and can do everything at home. . This is a nice horse from the family of Constitution Hill and Menorah. He's been slow enough to get going but he's a raw five-year-old with a lot of talent and I'd be hoping that he'll make up into a nice horse over fences.

Quotes on Jigoro (FR)
It was a good performance and we knew he had improved plenty from the first day. Obviously there was a lot of talk about Tom Cooper's horse and I thought it was a good performance. Jack was delighted with him and said he'll stay further. He said a faster gallop would have suited him but he was very happy with the run. He could go for the four-year-old hurdle at Limerick over Christmas.

Quotes on Mister Beeton (IRE)
He got a great ride off Shane, he put him asleep and cut every corner he could,. We were confident enough turning in, he was only going through the motions and once he got the gap I was confident enough. He won well in the end. He'll keep tipping away, he loves that ground. He likes a bit of space between his races so we'll pick something out in five or six weeks.

Quotes on Shannon Royale (IRE)
I was disappointed with him the last day and put cheek pieces on to sharpen him up. He’d fitness on his side but Jack said he was a different horse altogether today and maybe he just needed the run the last day. His jumping was good but he has been disappointing. We’ll probably look for a three-mile handicap somewhere and see what happens.

Quotes on That's About Right (IRE)
Delighted!. Conor gave him a super ride. That chap from humble beginnings 18 months ago with his first ever ride over hurdles, never sat on a horse two and a-half years ago, what he is achieving this year is beyond belief. I thought he took a hold of him at the right time and I thought he gave him a really, really good ride. To see him (Owens) do that today, I would be extremely proud of him. He is a chap that is improving and improving and improving away all the time. It is an absolute credit to him. He works hard at it, hugely dedicated to it. I thought that was a super polished ride. From limited opportunities, six winners ridden. For any 7lb claimer, that is a huge achievement. For a fella that sat up on a horse two and a-half years ago, it is an incredible achievement.
