McNamara strikes on Palazzone

Hopefully that's a tonic for the boss who is at home with the flu,. I'm very happy with that. We thought he had a bit to do with 10 stone on his back but he loves to be ridden that way and Emmet gave him a lovely ride. Uhfortunately the owner, who lives in Paris, was home last week. There's a three-year-old only race here for him next week and hopefully he gets into that.

Double up for Berry

She stuck at it well. I don't know whether we would run her again this season,. She ran well here the last time. She was wide a lot of the way then and came home well so it wasn't the biggest surprise. She's a filly there could be plenty of improvement in but I'd say we'll wait with her.

Byrne strikes on Mid Mon

He gave it a good ride. He was a bit unlucky last week. It's nice for him as he's a good little rider,. She's a decent sort of filly around here. She's in Navan on Wednesday and if the ground stays dry she might take her chance.

Bawn charges home in Dundalk finale

That was justified after Ballinrobe. We were disappointed a little then and it's nice to get her head in front,. Hopefully we'll be back here next Friday for the apprentice handicap all being well.
