Top Bandit brings up across-the-card double for Elliott
It was a lovely race for him. Davy said he had to go when he did — probably sooner than he wanted to. He wouldn’t be one for the real depths of winter so we’ll probably give him a break at some stage and have him back for the spring.

Shantou Lucky reaps reward for favourite backers
Hopefully he’s a horse that will progress again if the handicapper is not too hard on him. He enjoys passing horses and he may go a little bit further. He’s still an immature horse and hopefully he’ll keep progressing. They owners are a great bunch and are having a right bit of fun.

Gain De Cause appreciates step up in trip
The experience he got in Cork the last day and the extra trip helped him. It’s great that it’s worked out and he’s got his day in the sun. We’ll keep tipping away and find something similar for him.

Party Central holds on from her stablemate
She’s a good mare. I’d say if Davy (Russell) had his time back he’d have waited a bit longer.

Allaho leads home Mullins 1-2-3 in John Durkan Chase
I was delighted how he fought back. When Asterion Forlonge came up alongside him I thought that will take the stuffing out of him. Each challenger that came he kept pulling it out. He raced very lazily today which is not like him and he was going a bit to his left which is not like him so we will have to look at all that for the future. Our horses are not fully wound up yet and I was hoping his ability would pull him through. Taking on horses with a run under their belt can be very tough. I was very happy with the way they all performed and hoping they will all improve from that.

Ferny Hollow makes winning return over fences
For a horse with such little experience I was very impressed with him. He was very lazy over the first few fences, very careful. Patrick said once he had to get down to race over the last four he was much better, he was like a professional. We’ll look for a nice novice chase with him. We’ll see how he comes out of that before we make a plan for his next run.

Seven in a row for handicap king Glenquin Castle
He’s an amazing horse and just when you think he’s beaten he gets a bit of luck as well. He’s consistent and it’s great to have a horse like him. The kids would ride him out and he’d never show you a whole pile. He’d probably prefer good ground but he got away with that today. We’ll probably find something for him around Christmas and he’s still a novice so he could go for a novice handicap.

Nolan unleashes exciting Sandor Clegane
It’s virtually the same owners as Latest Exhibition and we’re delighted today the way he did it. He was very professional and hopefully he’ll kick on. He schools well. We’ll probably go for a winners’ bumper. He’s a fine big horse and hopefully he stays trouble free. It’s been a horrible week. They have been tremendously lucky colours for us and great people. It’s great to win for them after what happened last week.
