Quotes on Dance Night Andday (IRE)

It's great to have Colin Keane on your side, he was brilliant on her. I didn't realise that it was only a nose,. It was a good performance carrying top-weight. She came out of Naas really well and she's a lovely filly to have. She's an improver and has a good temperament. She's lovely and relaxed. I walked through the barn last night and she was lying panned out, there wasn't a budge out of her. Colin said when he got to the front she pricked her ears and parked, she got idle. He knows her well, the three times she's won he's been on her. She'll probably dip her toe in a Listed race now and see where we are from there. There are a couple of different options for her. I stuck her in the Ballycorus at Leopardstown to have a look, as she's won around there before, but I'd say that will be tasty. I'd nearly go Listed before that. She has a good mind and definitely wants good ground, that's the key to her. It's lovely to have a really nice filly like her.

Quotes on You Send Me (IRE)

She is a big filly and was very weak when she ran last year so we put her away. We'll see how she comes out of this and, if it doesn't take too much out of her, we might look at a Guineas Trial. She is very big and still very raw and could even make a better filly next year than this year. She wants seven (furlongs) or a mile and I don't think she wants it that soft as she is a good-moving filly. She is a nice filly.

Quotes on Apricot Ice (IRE)

You can see by the size of her she's still on the leg. We ran her in a Listed race at Leopardstown last year, that's what we thought of her. She's only going to get better with age. She's turned a wee corner there, she won her maiden and she's backed it up today. I'd say we only got away with it on the ground. She's all about top of the ground and, if the race was in two races time, I'd say we would have been in trouble. Colin still maintains that she'll get seven, but we'll keep doing this with the hope that she improves as a four-year-old. Obviously, the aim is that they grow into black-type fillies and I'd say that will happen at four.

Quotes on Firebird (GB)

She won well in Cork and this was an obvious next race for her. You'd like to think that it's a big part of her education completed and hopefully she can go forward from here,.

Quotes on Navassa Island (IRE)

She's a filly we've always liked and I'm delighted for her owner Abdullah. He bought this filly after her debut run at Naas,. We went to Ascot thinking we had a live one and things just didn't happen for her, with the way the race panned out. That can happen with a two-year-old, being so inexperienced going there. Things didn't work out the last day again but she's come out of that, back to six and she's finished out her race lovely. Dylan gave her a lovely ride. She looks like a filly that will continue to improve, she doesn't over-race and she settles and relaxes. She came home well and we're delighted for everyone. Dylan said he was going to get her to relax, get her behind something, and if he was happy with what was in front of him he was just going to follow. She's in the Debutante but it might be a little bit soon because she's actually starting to grow a little bit. We'll see what happens, we might step up in grade and stay at six. A faster run race might suit her. She's has black-type already, she's won her maiden, so now it's about trying to win a stakes race. Something like the Firth Of Clyde could be a race for her, she handles a little ease in it. She should be able to go and win her stakes race, she's a sister to a Group 1 winner (Lezoo) so it's all about adding to that now.

Quotes on Over The Blues (IRE)

Over The Blues did that pretty well and as Luke (McAteer, winning jockey) said it a matter of getting from A to B with her. She was green first time and while she is normally pretty good coming out of stalls, she was in there for a long time and missed the break a little bit. Luke had to get after her then to hold a position but that lit her up and then she maybe didn't see out the six fully from being keen. She gets six (furlongs) no problem but in saying that you could easily drop her back to five. They are a speedy family, four have won maidens for us but this is the only one which could go over five. They are all very different although this is very different to the rest of them as she's probably the strongest and being a sprinter, all she'll do is improve. It's a fair broodmare that Jim (Browne, owner/breeder) has. there is a conditions race in Tipperary next week but I'd say that might be a bit quick for her and there is a Listed race back here in a month's time over this trip so that would seem to be ideal for her. We don't mind stepping her up in class and that's probably an ideal option.

Quotes on Pearls And Rubies (USA)

We thought that she was very smart, we had it in our head could she be an Ascot filly. Obviously, she needed experience badly. We came here to see if she would be forward enough for Ascot. Ryan rode her accordingly and left her alone and educated her. She could be an Albany filly. She has won there and she doesn't even realised she has raced yet. She just kept coming and finished off very strong. She's obviously a filly with plenty of class.

Quotes on Shandy (IRE)

I thought she might have been an Ascot two-year-old this time last year but she had a bit of an issue so spent a long time out in the field. It was a rush to get her ready to run so she had no foundation going to the Curragh last October. Colin (Keane, then jockey ) liked her, said she was weak but it was just that everything was a rush getting her to run. This is Seamie's first winner for me, he comes in a couple of times a week and had ridden winners (three) for my father. He, Joey (Sheridan) and Andy (Slattery) will all ride for me this year.
