Quotes

Quotes on Zoffanien (IRE)

the ride wasn't by design as I lost my position but it worked out well. He is a bit lairy but it is a big drop in grade for him. He had been running terribly all winter and we gave him a freshen up recently. He was a good juvenile but they get killed by the handicapper and was a victim of his own success. He paid the penalty for the last year and a half. I said to Liam (Mulryan) about riding him colder and he has been working really well. I haven't seen Liam at a racecourse for 10 years so when I saw him today I knew he fancied him too. I'm delighted for him as he has been a loyal supporter since I started training. He always has two or three in training with me and I enjoy talking to him regularly on the phone. Originally the plan was to go Galway but it was Liam who made this plan - he said 'everyone wants to go to Galway but Killarney would do me'.

Quotes on Walhaan (IRE)

To be honest, if it was the day before over hurdles (sixth in Leopardstown), we really fancied him. The rain came that night and just spoiled our chances but he ran a cracker. We put him away after that and said we would have one run. We hope to go to Lingfield on Good Friday with him now, that's the plan if he gets in. This was a pipe-opener for that.

Quotes on Whiskeywealth (IRE)

He was very disappointing in the Dan Moore (eighth at Fairyhouse on his penultimate start). I thought I’d got it wrong and he wasn’t good enough, but I’d say he hit a flat spot on the day,. Today was a bit lower class, but he did it well. He was in great form coming here and I was hoping he’d run a good race. He’s been very consistent, and we’re delighted to get a good pot. He was due to run in this race last year, but he scoped wrong a couple of days beforehand. He’s still improving and that was a career best over fences.

Quotes

Quotes on Sign From Above (IRE)

Mark was saying they went very quick early on and, then when they steadied it up, he just got on the bridle a bit and travelled,. He picked up well and quickened away down to the last. He's a nice horse, he's a very consistent horse and never runs a bad race. He had two runs in Galway one day after the other and he ran a cracker both days. He'll be a nice horse there for nice handicaps. He gets two and a half mile and I suppose some of those nice two mile handicaps where they go fast up front, he could be dropped in a bit and come through them. He could be one to sneak in off a low weight in a real good two-mile handicap. I think that is his proper forte. I think ground doesn't bother him. He still has a nice mark on the Flat so there could be something for him before the end of the season on the Flat.

Quotes on Luminous Light (GB)

the owners are the Good Counsel School in New Ross and Sean (Flanagan) went to school there. It is great to get a winner for them and the connection comes from another former pupil Jonathan Moore (jockey) who advises me. we always thought a wee bit of him and we thought maybe Mighty Mo Missouri might have got a hard race at Cheltenham and we were glad to take him on on the day. I think he'll handle any ground but I think he'll be better on better ground. Hopefully he can improve now and tip on. He had a high rating on the flat coming from Mark Johnson but I bought him (for 6,500gns) on the first day of a sale and picked up two or three nice horses that day.

Quotes on Answering (IRE)

Cian only lives 200 yards down the road and that’s his first winner at Thurles. He was off for six months after breaking his leg in Listowel and I think he’s only back a few weeks so it’s great to get him a winner. It was an ideal opportunity after his last two runs. I know he’s a nine-year-old but he’s improving all the time and is only coming to himself this year. We’ll probably find a handicap for him down the line and maybe a bit further would suit. He goes on all ground and seems to handle that well. All options are open for him. This race was for trainers who hadn’t 20 winners over jumps last year and it’s great to be able to get a race like that.

Quotes on Rumi (GB)

All credit to Ger Kelly in Fethard. I thought he’d broken his neck when he fell in Ballinrobe, but it turned out he’d broken his shoulder. . He operated on him and took out a piece of bone that was bigger than a golf ball. We just gave him time and it’s incredible to get him back like that. . He was impressive the first day he ran over hurdles in Listowel and then I was a little bit disappointed with him. He only ran once more over hurdles but I think he’s a better horse now.

Quotes on War Correspondent (IRE)

The last day was a non event, he stood in the stalls and the race was over. Lucky enough we were in last today which was a big help. His three runs before that were very good and I thought one day he might just come good. He's after running around 20 times on the Flat and has never won. Dylan said he was going to keep it simple today. He said if he came out, he would ride him real positive. If he fell in a hole up the straight, so be it. He stayed going. To win five lengths, I couldn't believe it. That was a 95 handicap - there was only one horse rated over 95 and the rest of them were in the 80s (and 70s), but he won well. He's basically running away here until he gets a bit of nice ground to go back over jumps. He wants good ground. He has a wind issue, so he gets away with it on nice ground. As soon as the weather dries up, he will go back over hurdles. He's a fine big horse and great to get his head in front.

Quotes on Zeeband (IRE)

he'll be a grand horse for the summer, he will jump a fence at some time but today is a lovely day to win because Paul Carty - who owns half of the horse with Natalie (Gilligan), his mother is quite ill in hospital. It is a great boost for them and hopefully she will get a kick out of it as well. Jack gave him a lovely ride as we planned to poke Henry's horse (front-running Champagne Mahler) along and I did think we'd reverse Gowran form with him. He is only getting the hang of things over hurdles now and hopefully will stay progressing.

Quotes on Hands On (IRE)

he is out of a Galileo mare and isn't very big so it was an easy choice to go three-year-old hurdling. He was small and doesn't look like an Enda Bolger-horse so maybe nobody wanted him! I wouldn't be throwing 12st7lb on him or anything but there is an engine there, which is the main thing. it was no harm that he met some trouble in running as it will make a man of him and he is a great little leaper. He was still green, he pulled hard early on, but is learning his job all the time. Let's hope it is onwards and upwards with him. We'll keep educating him away and follow around in a three-year-old winners' of one. He must be Flemensfirth's first three-year-old winner too.

Quotes on Clever Currency (IRE)

He had his wind done at Christmas and maybe needed the run the last day after the break. He didn't run a bad race last time and Ben got to know him there. The plan was to come here and he probably came on a bit from the last day. It's great to see him winning and the syndicate (Force Fifteen), which includes my sister Rebecca, have had plenty of faith in him. He was rated 117 as a four-year-old, he was too high, and he was only getting dropped a pound the whole time. He's rated 105 over fences. He'll actually be better around tighter tracks, I was a bit worried about here but in fairness he gave him a great ride. He was left alone and he obviously didn't go too quick.

Quotes on Timeless Piece (IRE)

I was worried about the ground, but she went away through it fine. I kept out onto the best of it really. She did it well, I'm happy that she got that done. She isn't a big filly so getting the weight is a big help on that ground. Our horses are in good form and riding good horses is a massive help.

Aubrey McMahon bought him and he was well bought (47,000gns at the Tattersalls Horses In Training Sale). He jumped better and Sean gave him a lovely ride. He took his time and they went very fast - Wrecking Ball Paul brought them along at a right good gallop.

Quotes on Macinamillion (IRE)

He's a lovely straightforward horse. He races lazily which you'd love in a horse coming off the Flat. He jumped really well there today. The cheekpieces just helped him travel a little bit better. He was behind the bridle a lot the last day. He went to the line really well and hopefully there is more to come. I wouldn't say he has to have it this soft, I'd say on the Flat it was important because he probably just lacked a gear.

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.
