Quotes on Final Orders (GB)
I suppose on paper he was supposed to be doing that, but still it was nice to do it. If there is one guarantee, he won't be running in this race next year!. I wouldn't rule it out (a stint over hurdles now), it is worth considering. He certainly doesn't want heavy winter ground. In the Galway Plate he made a mistake and the false start was the biggest thing for him. He had a lovely position the first time if he had got away. He just didn't get a nice position and made a bad mistake (before finishing unplaced). I wouldn't rule the Galway Plate out for next year, it is a difficult race with all the hustle and bustle and he is only a small, little horse. It is not an easy task. Possibly another option for him maybe a Paddy Power in Cheltenham in November.After Final Orders (GB) finished 1st at Bellewstown on Wed, 30th Aug 2023 2m 4f Hcap Hurdle Good

Quotes on Mars Harper (GB)
This was probably the race I should have went for at the start of the week and while the other race looked like it was cutting up, Sharjah (winner) was still in it. He came out of Tuesday's race well, we fired him out in the field yesterday and he was bucking and squealing so we said we'd take our chance. He is a tough horse and ran to a good level over hurdles. There are a good few of Pioneer Racing down here for the festival and hopefully we might get another win with him.After Mars Harper (GB) finished 1st at Galway on Thu, 3rd Aug 2023 2m 6f Chase Good to Yielding

Quotes on Gaelic Arc (IRE)
I couldn't believe who made that horse 14/1, it was a joke! We changed the way of riding him and he didn't come off the bridle at Down Royal, so I was wondering what I was missing - I couldn't understand it. He had gone off the boil after having a hard race behind American Mike last December and he loves the top of the ground. His half-brother won (Galop Marin) won four French Grade 1s. That chap (Prendergast) is in with me three days a week and this horse was his first winner as a conditional jockey at Down Royal. I left him on again today and it is great for him.After Gaelic Arc (IRE) finished 1st at Clonmel on Thu, 12th May 2022 2m Hurdle Good

Quotes on Grange Walk (IRE)
I thought he was the only horse in the field capable of winning a Grade 2 and the rest were handicappers. He's a bit more than a handicapper,. He's been a bit of an unlucky sort. Liam Quinlan gave him a tip top ride. He's a brave lad over a fence. He'll go to Aintree, the owner wants to go there. He'll go to a two-mile handicap, he's entitled to go there. He's a proper two mile chaser and the blinkers probably helped a bit.After Grange Walk (IRE) finished 1st at Gowran Park on Sat, 11th Mar 2023 2m Hcap Chase Soft to Heavy

Quotes on The Big Chap (IRE)
It was either run here or in Cheltenham yesterday in the race won by My Mate Mozzie but I wasn't just convinced that it might have been a fluke when we beat him at Fairyhouse. It suited to come to Galway and I'm delighted to see him win on that softer ground. He is something to look forward to and it is early in the year so I wouldn't get just excited yet but could go for a handicap at Leopardstown over Christmas. He likes fences, jumps, goes a good gallop and could eventually go for the Grand Annual at Cheltenham - I think that's the type of horse he is. The lads are from Mullinavat and previously owned Moon Dice (Galway Hurdle winner) with me.After The Big Chap (IRE) finished 1st at Galway on Sat, 28th Oct 2023 2m 2f Novice Chase Soft

Quotes on The Dasher Conway (IRE)
In fairness to Donagh he gave him a super ride. He made a bad mistake and crept his way back into it. I was worried that we wouldn’t catch the horse in front but he’s battled on well after the last. He was in great form and had a good run in Punchestown where he ran on well from the last and we thought back in grade this evening would suit him. It’s been a great day. That’s my first double in Ireland. I had a double before in England.After The Dasher Conway (IRE) finished 1st at Kilbeggan on Fri, 17th May 2024 2m 4f Hcap Chase Good to Yielding

Quotes on Mr Saxobeat (IRE)
He's a lovely horse. We got him off Sean O'Keeffe's Dad and we were thrilled when we got him. We like him a lot and we would have been disappointed if he wasn't knocking on the door today. He'll probably go to the field for a bit of a rest as he's only five and I'd say he's on the go a long time, even before we got him. I think he could do with a rest. He had been going well and doing everything right. He was going well in a point-to-point (at Fairyhouse) when he fell and it looked good on the video anyway, we kind of bought him on the strength of that. The owners (the Roberto Syndicate) have had Agent Boru with me for years and he came good again this season. We were looking for a replacement for him as he's ten now and, thank God, it looks like we have a lovely replacement for him. They are a lucky bunch of fellas.After Mr Saxobeat (IRE) finished 1st at Galway on Thu, 29th Jul 2021 2m 2f Bumper Good

Quotes on El Champo (IRE)
I thought this was the ideal race for him after going up (in the weights) having won over 2m3f on soft ground the last day. He was back in trip, but I wanted to let him roll on and Paddy (O'Hanlon) is so good at making the running. He was left to dictate and around here that suits and his jumping was better today. In Ireland where do you find an ordinary race? That could be his final handicap hurdle as such as he got beaten previously off 98. Maybe I was a bad trainer, but we're stepping up and up now and he'll probably go chasing at some stage.After El Champo (IRE) finished 1st at Galway on Sun, 29th Oct 2023 2m Hcap Hurdle Heavy

Quotes on Galon De Vauzelle (FR)
Very heavy ground the second-last day in Fairyhouse and he just didn't handle it. Hence he was out so wide today. I went to Cheltenham and I thought he was doing a half-speed down to the third-last, and just switched in and made a mistake at the wrong time. He did nothing wrong that day, I thought he was running a blinder. I just said to Tom Doran his owner that there is no Seddon in the race this year. Last year Seddon beat me 10 lengths and look what he went on to do. He was 4lb higher this year and we fitted blinkers for the first time not because he is ungenuine, but just to sharpen him up with what had happened in Cheltenham and before that. Going around the parade ring beforehand, he was on his 'A' game. I was very confident of a very big run. Thank God - now I don't look so stupid!. If you go back and look at his form last year and the horses that beat him, his runs were incredible. He just kept coming up against one. He is extremely genuine and such a gorgeous horse. Thank God he has won. I'd love to bring him back to the UK and try him on good ground over further. It is something I have in my head. I'd love to drop him in over three and a-half miles on good ground in a good chase over there to see what would happen. I love trying different things to see if you can find an edge. You can't stay what you are doing or you get to a level and you don't go further. That is my 33rd winner and has equalled my best season.After Galon De Vauzelle (FR) finished 1st at Leopardstown on Fri, 29th Dec 2023 2m 5f Hcap Chase Soft to Heavy
