Dream start in the paid ranks for Foley on Artist

He was threatening to win one on his last few runs. Discordantly got away on him in Galway and he would have been a good bit closer only for that. He was first reserve in the Troytown last week but didn’t get in,.

Pencilfulloflead ups it a level to go 2 from 2 over fences

Mullins one two as Buttercup just beats Eli

Fitness probably just won it on the day. Paul had to go when he did but he’d prefer to wait longer. She stuck her head out on the line,.

Grade Two Punchestown double for Elliott

I was only hacking around the whole way and he’ll be better going a stronger gallop and a bit further. He’s in the Hattons Grace but that will come quick enough and he’ll probably go for the three miles Grade I at Christmas.

Abacadabras and it's an Elliott treble in Punchestown's highlight

I definitely knew he’d improve from Down Royal where he took a blow after the second last. He came forward from the run and he needed to in a race like that.

Mullins and Townend double up with new recruit Fighter Allen

He’s a nice recruit and probably more a chaser than a hurdler but we’ll keep him at that sort of trip. A staying novice hurdler,.

Foley clearly a talent and 271/1 double lights up Punchestown

It was a lovely race for him and even though it was right-handed I let him take his chance. Most of his wins were at Leopardstown or left-handed tracks. It’s a bit of a surprise but he’s been working well since his last run. He’s come down in the weights and Jack was good on him. Jack was with me five years ago as an apprentice and rode Fosters Cross at Dundalk. He’s come back to me this summer and is a different man altogether now. He said he’d do anything to have a crack at being a jockey. He’s put in a lot of work, I’ve given him his opportunity and it’s working out.
