Quotes on Janidil (FR)
It was a nice comeback for Janidil and he was straighter than I thought he was.

Quotes on Zanahiyr (IRE)
I thought we were very beatable first run back and to be honest I wasn’t going to run him only there was a very small entry. Jack said he had a couple of blows and was delighted with him – he jumped well. He was entitled to do it on ratings, but it’s not always that easy. We thought we might get a soft lead but it was an honest gallop and Philip put the gun to our head the whole way. I’ll talk to Noel and Valerie (Moran, owners) to see what they think (about plans). There is a lot of prize-money to be picked up in conditions hurdles and he has no Grade One penalty, so he can step back into Grade Twos and Threes. I’d say you could see him in anything from two-mile-five back to two miles. You know he’s going to wear his heart on his sleeve and try his best for you. The way he jumps a hurdle you would say he would jump a fence, so I wouldn’t rule it out.After Zanahiyr (IRE) finished 1st at Punchestown on Tue, 10th Oct 2023 2m 2f Hurdle Yielding

Quotes on Chemical Energy (IRE)
I didn’t think there was much between the two but Davy (Russell) said the ground was too good (for seventh-placed Rodaniche). This horse handles that ground and he jumped well.

Quotes on Favori De Champdou (FR)
Very good, jumped great and galloped all the way to the line so I am very happy with him. He's a very strong stayer and the further he goes, the better he gets. He could nearly have gone around there again. He’d a good run the last day and we thought he’d come on from it, but we thought it would be tough. Jack said he stayed very well and jumped brilliant. I’d imagine he’ll go for something at Christmas. I liked the way he stayed galloping. He travelled the whole way and he could be a real National Hunt Chase horse for Cheltenham.After Favori De Champdou (FR) finished 1st at Punchestown on Sat, 25th Nov 2023 3m Novice Chase Soft

Quotes on Lucid Dreams (IRE)
He’s a big, strong horse but has been too keen in graded races so we decided to go for a handicap and Andrew Shaw gave him the same mark as he has over hurdles. He was really gutsy to battle back. He can stay three miles but he has to learn to settle and we ran him back quick as racing will settle him. We’ll try and find something for him in the next three weeks or so. He shouldn’t go up too much for winning by half-a-length.After Lucid Dreams (IRE) finished 1st at Gowran Park on Sat, 11th Nov 2023 2m Hcap Chase Heavy

We thought she had a good chance and thought she was our best chance coming here,. Jack gave her a lovely ride, he said they went quick early. In fairness she stayed going well and she's very tough. She had a nice weight on her back but she's climbing up the ladder the whole time. She probably won too well but they are here to do their best so it's great. She'll be entered in the Plate but it might just happen a bit fast for her around Galway. She might be a horse for a Kerry National or something like that.

Quotes on Thecompanysergeant (GB)
We went a nice gallop. He had the experience coming into the race. He had some really solid form behind him. I'd say they were surprised he hadn't won his Beginners(chase) until now. We had been thinking of going for the Galway Plate so he would have wanted to do that in this grade and had finished fourth in a Grade 1 three runs ago. The Plate was in my head all summer but when he was beaten in Tipperary, I had a chat with Martin (Cooney) and we decided to stay in calmer waters. Rachael gave him a super ride and he jumped super. He is now still a novice for the season so we'll exploit that and we're hoping he will mix it in graded company during the winter. He has only been out of the money a few times when he had reasons and thanks to Martin for keeping him, as there were times he could have sold him. I'd love to have more like him but what generally happens to stables like ours nowadays is the likes of him are sold and taken by bigger owners and trainers.After Thecompanysergeant (GB) finished 1st at Galway on Tue, 30th Jul 2024 2m 2f Chase Good to Yielding

I tried to keep it simple, he was a little keen early on and his jumping was a little bit high.

It looked a nice race for him today and while he'll have to step up, we knew he'd come on a good bit from the run.

Quotes on Real Steel (FR)
It was brilliant the way it worked out. A huge thanks to Tadhg Moynihan, I picked him out at the sales and rang him and asked if he would buy him. He said Eric if you want him and I said 'I don't want to go home without him'. So I bought him but he paid for him. He paid for himself today. To win one of these handicaps is great. He was well handicapped if we could rekindle him, he spent two years doing nothing in England, whatever went wrong there. We changed his routine and we were always very kind to him. We brought him a few different places to work and we never took him off the bridle. We trained him like he was a real good horse and he always worked against horses that he could beat just to try and mentally get him back to where he was. He was a real good horse. He was only beaten seven-and-a-quarter lengths in a Gold Cup. I met Tadhg in Listowel one year, he was a great friend of Sean Currans', and we've been great friends ever since. He always said he'd love to win the Kerry National so I bought this fella to try and win it. He'll be there next year but this will do!. Conor gave him a great ride and did everything right so it's fantastic.After Real Steel (FR) finished 1st at Leopardstown on Tue, 27th Dec 2022 3m Hcap Chase Soft

Quotes on Battleoverdoyen (IRE)
He was high class; he was a Grade 1 winner. He was very unlucky all winter with the ground being very soft, he was struggling with his wind on real soft ground,. said Elliott. We went hunter chasing with him and had a great plan to qualify him for the Foxhunters this year but didn't get to qualify him, everything went wrong. For him to come back and win for the lads here is great because they've been patient with him. He wasn't going to have too many more chances which just goes to show if you don't give up. He's a lovely horse, it's great for Pioneer and great for Danny Gilligan, a local man, who was touched off in a couple of races during the week. I thought when he hit the front a half furlong down 'I don't know if he'll get home with his wind'. I'd say it just did catch him for the last half furlong. He's been a horse of a lifetime for me, I've had him since he was a four-year-old. Obviously he's a Grade 1 winner and to come back and win for the boys today, if he doesn't do anything ever again he's going to have a great life. In fairness he has dropped a lot in the handicap, he's 123 there and was rated 160 at his best. We'll enjoy today and make a plan after that. He might go to Listowel for one of the handicap chases there.After Battleoverdoyen (IRE) finished 1st at Galway on Fri, 2nd Aug 2024 2m 6f Hcap Chase Yielding

Quotes on Another Choice (IRE)
He jumped very well and I'm happy with him. I was very happy with his work recently. He ran in Gowran a while back and the ground was too wet and he just couldn't get through the ground. The one thing I was happy with that day was that he settled. He has a tendency to get very lit up and very keen and hang. He's quirky. I was happy that he settled away in Gowran and didn't hang. I thought on his best form he'd have a chance. He won a maiden hurdle up here and he won a bumper (in Cork), so he's not a bad horse. I'm delighted for James. He did seven months over with Jonjo (O'Neill) and he loved it. He said he would come back for the summer with the option of going back next winter if he wants. He's a good lad and he works hard, he has a good head on him. I'm delighted for Michael Hannon (owner), he has been very patient with the horse and a few disappointing days. The horse has ability and he showed it there today.After Another Choice (IRE) finished 1st at Downpatrick on Fri, 26th Apr 2024 2m 7f Chase Good

Quotes on Jumping Jet (IRE)
He has always said to me to put my head down, work hard and graft. He has shown me nothing but honesty. It means a lot and it is brilliant to get it. Garry Cribbin my agent has been a big help. I'm riding nice horses for good lads. The race panned out probably just the way I liked it. I rode her cold for a mile and gave her every chance. Luckily, it paid off. It is great to win it. Big thanks to Brian and Jayne McConnell, they are with me since before I got a trainer's licence, training point-to-pointers. It is great for Carl to win a big race like that. he wasted to do 10 stone and it made the difference. I thought the ground was too quick for her, but I said I'd roll the dice because it was a big race.

Quotes on Flash De Touzaine (FR)
I've always loved this horse but he is mentally fragile, although is going the right way. He jumped beautifully, having been a bit novicey last year and we rode him more positively as we wanted to try something different. hopefully he is a National type horse and you'd hope he will take a step forward with more experience as it was only his fifth run over fences. He is a pure natural with an obstacle coming to him. Paul (Nicholls, previous trainer) had a few issues with him but mentally he is coming along the whole time and I was very pleased they allowed me to take him back. He travels and jumps in this deep stuff and if that can do that, it is a big benefit to them. There are lots to look forward to.After Flash De Touzaine (FR) finished 1st at Galway on Sun, 30th Oct 2022 2m 6f Hcap Chase Soft

Quotes on Positive Thinker (IRE)
That was his first win over hurdles but he had always been there or thereabouts and he is tough. The ground is very heavy so I was worried but we live in Cratloe and our farm is only five miles out the road (in Sixmilebrridge) so it was tempting when the track being so near. We sponsored the previous race and tried to win it but didn't have any luck. This horse is a winter horse and is a chaser really who you'd think he might win a good chase some day.After Positive Thinker (IRE) finished 1st at Limerick on Sun, 22nd Oct 2023 3m Hcap Hurdle Soft to Heavy

Quotes on Donkey Years (IRE)
We're delighted with that. He's been a good servant over the years and he's so much better handicapped over hurdles than fences so it was nice to get one with him,. He had promised a couple of times when he was placed but he was just very disappointing the last day. It's good that he's back and showed a nice bit of sparkle there. Mark said he was even keen at one or two points in the race. It's great to have a winner in those colours. I'd like to have one crack at the Munster National with him. Maybe before today I might have struggled to be allowed to enter him but he will be entered in it now, that's for certain.After Donkey Years (IRE) finished 1st at Listowel on Wed, 25th Sep 2024 3m Hcap Hurdle Yielding to Soft

Quotes on Donacheady Gale (IRE)
When Robbie Power won a maiden hurdle on this horse, he said 'John, I've ridden a lot of good horses and this is as nice a horse as I've ever ridden' but unfortunately I've had to bring him back following a lot of injuries. When he won his bumper he didn't just beat good horses, he hammered them, so I knew he was worth bringing back. He was always a top class horse. I hope the handicapper isn't too hard on him and if he gets into the Munster National, he'll go there.After Donacheady Gale (IRE) finished 1st at Listowel on Sat, 28th Sep 2024 2m 6f Hcap Chase Soft to Heavy

Quotes on Sainte Dona (FR)
That was some exhibition. She had a lovely run in Limerick, but she takes a bit of time between her races as she's so hard on herself. We went back to Cork after she was second here and it was too soon. She jumps and stays, that's her forte. She won a maiden hurdle by a similar distance (25 lengths) and to win a beginners' chase by 26 lengths is some going. She's going to get better and she'll get more black-type over fences by the same she's finished. The plan was to try and get the beginners' out of the way and she's got that done. She seems to be at home on that ground, but she's not slow either. For one that travels so well on the heavy ground here, she finds the deep sand at home hard work. I put in a carpet gallop this year at home and it's after transforming her, she zips up it. It keeps her fresh and well.After Sainte Dona (FR) finished 1st at Fairyhouse on Wed, 7th Feb 2024 2m 5f Chase Heavy

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
