Quotes on Jake Peter (IRE)

He is a legend, a right little horse and the one thing with him is he will give you everything every day. I was thinking of leaving him out after his win the last day but the oul weather has been kind to us so we chanced keeping him going and it has paid off. We'll get him home now and see what the forecast is so I wouldn't rule out running him again. We have a few other horses ready to run but they are waiting for soft ground.

Quotes on Inchiquin Star (IRE)

We were hopeful today. She has been a bit unlucky on her last couple of runs. She ran well at Tipperary but just took some kind of false step after the last. She done well to stay standing after that and lost all momentum. She is a real consistent filly and I think she is probably good enough to win on the Flat too. She is a grand fun mare for the summer and can mix it between both codes. She likes nicer ground. . She will probably go back to Tramore now. There is a race on the Flat and a race over hurdles for her there and she'll go for one or the other.

Quotes on Gwan Tadhg (IRE)

It would appear that way, yes (good ground is key to him). When he ran last Monday (in Downpatrick), he's now out of this grade, he's out of the 95s so I was lucky to get him in today. We are very pleased with him, he's had three quick runs and I'm not sure where he will go next.

Quotes on Grappa Nonino (IRE)

He did it well. Chris gave him a peach of a ride, he was in the box seat turning for home. He did well to get him from a 17 draw across and that was important because I thought there was quicker ground on the far rail, and that's been evident all day. He's a good actioned horse. He ran a reasonable race in Galway last week, I was disappointed with him but the ground had gone soft to heavy and that's not for him. He was drawn wide and ran a bit keen. It was a combination of things and things just didn't work out in that particular race. He's a smashing horse to train, he's won a couple on the Flat and he's won over hurdles this year as well. He has a great owner, Gregg Ryan in America. He'll be enjoying watching the race and his future will be to go to America as a dual-purpose horse.

Quotes on Vischio (IRE)

It’s absolutely brilliant for the syndicate involved — my cousin Michael and his sister Mag and the sons. She was bought for a good friend of mine John Kennedy who was fighting cancer at the time. She was second in a seller and we were able to claim her for about 8,000. She won a hurdle race just before Michael died and the current syndicate have had nothing but fun with her ever since. She started off this spring and has been at nearly every Festival since. We thought she might not go on heavy ground and it’s better she’s got on heavy ground. You could see lately she was in brilliant form and she’s really strengthened. The races have taken nothing out of her. She had a bit to find on several horses in the race today but there is always a chance in an end of season race that horses may not run to form and there was a chance to sneak some black type. She was definitely going to be in the first three under two furlongs down but to win was a dream. We are dealing with cheap, low grade horses most of the time and she was low grade too at one time. We never have more than about ten horses but luckily we’ve had horses that have been able to win races this year which makes it enjoyable. I’d say she’ll race away. I had it in my head to go to Leopardstown at Christmas for a hurdle race but I don’t know if that will happen now. She has a mark over hurdles that you’d say she might be able to compete off but we’ll have to

Quotes on Luimneach (IRE)

This is a day for old trainers! Arthur Moore and myself, give us the stuff and we might be able to do the job!. He's a grand horse, we could say we were lucky at the last with the other fella (blundering). He pulled hard in Leopardstown last time and he ran a cracking race considering. He didn't stop pulling until going to the second last. Over two miles today they went quicker and he didn't pull as much. He's a beautiful looking horse, a fine big horse. That will give my wife Helen a big gee up at home watching the TV. When he came first she said 'oh I love that horse'.

Quotes on Cozone (GB)

he loved that ground, jumped really well and in that company was well in at the weights. He jumped himself to the front going down the back straight and while I got there sooner than I wanted, he stuck at it well. I thought we were going plenty fast enough but he kept pulling out. This is the only good race he has run since winning at Listowel last September and he has been really disappointing this year but hopefully is on the up now.

Quotes on Hey Johnny (IRE)

I was finding it hard to get him fit at home so I ran him in a graded race the last day and the whole idea was I was hoping he might get a little penalty to go for the Dublin Racing Festival. I had my eye on the two-mile handicap hurdle at the DRF since Christmas. It has worked out today as he won his race, will have his penalty so will get in. He was a strange ride and we had to do that today as we didn't want to risk him falling asleep out the back. Danny said he will be away and alright in a big field, so we'll drop him in the next day. He's a half-brother to Sir Gerhard, so hopefully will continue to progress.

Quotes on Baltinglass Hill (IRE)

He was very unlucky to get beat in Navan where it looked like he had it well won and made a mistake at the last. His jumping won the race in Killarney under a brilliant ride from Rachael Blackmore, and Darragh (O’Keeffe) was equally good on him this evening. He’s only a four-year-old but he’s growing up and learning his trade. He hasn’t won by far and hopefully won’t get a massive penalty and we’ll find another handicap for him. I thought the ground had gone (too soft) for him but when I came here I couldn’t believe my luck. Jim Guilfoyle (owner) has been with me for years and we’ve had loads of winners together and he’s a fantastic supporter.

Quotes on Redcliff Glen (GER)

he has been disappointing every day he ran although his last couple of pieces of work had been better. We were hoping for the best and he (son Philip) said he'd go wide for the better ground. he had solid enough Flat form and we thought he'd have done something before now but never showed me much. He is ground-dependent and is more a horse for next summer.

Quotes on Ricky Langford (IRE)

he has been a good, fun horse and has won five races for us now. He is owned by the Kings Horses Syndicate - I was in school in Kings Hospital in Dublin and a bunch of friends from there own him. I gave him to them a few years ago and he has been great and has near enough paid his way. hopefully we'll get another day out of him but ultimately is for sale and is one that will be going to England this year. There is a ladies' race in Cartmel in a few weeks time and we might go over there with him - a few of the lads from the syndicate are living in England now. He would be a super horse for England on good ground — he'd nearly be a 'Saturday horse' in handicap chases over there.

Quotes on Robbies Rock (GB)

He's a very big, raw horse and hopefully there is a bit of improvement there. For a horse that has had a few runs, he's still fairly raw but he went to the line well. The rail was a help to him. He's never made a noise at home or anything like that but what he did do, the last day in Killarney over hurdles, he made a mistake at the first and just kind of held his breath. We just stuck the tongue-tie on to maybe rule it out.

Quotes on Dream Escape (GB)

I always thought a lot of him but it just didn't materialise until now. He handles good ground so well that we were afraid of the ground but were confident enough. He'll go hurdling - that's the plan and he's the first winner for the syndicate who are five women from Tinryland, Co Carlow, who couldn't be here but will be delighted.
