Well-drawn Alfredo wins a 3rd at Dundalk
He's a lovely horse. We were going to send him to the Horses In Training Sale but we just felt there were a few good opportunities here over the winter. There is a 25 grand handicap over six here in four weeks time that he will come back for,. For a three-year-old to do that is pretty good. He's been a bit free going like a lot of sprinters and we spent that much time getting him relaxed that we had to change it up a bit. We needed to make a bit more use of him as he has a huge stride. I think he's grown up now.
Nowt dramatic about Marnane's Dundalk brace
He's a very nice horse. He's huge and doesn't have an awful lot of experience, and even the last day he just had a look when he got there. He doesn't know a lot about it but he's definitely going the right way. I'm delighted for Mossy Casey and Denis McGettigan who own him and have been good supporters. It's great that they have a nice horse. He'll be a nice horse next summer. He could come back here to teach him another bit.
Masalai foils gamble on favourite Complicit
Pony race star Coen rides 1st winner
She is a good filly and is just coming right. He (handicapper) gave her 11lb but she obviously justified it today with a valuable 10lb coming off,. Seven is probably her ideal trip but a mile is okay ridden with confidence. That lad has loads of confidence. He's very cool and quiet and you wonder if he will ever wake up! He's a good rider and he did the job right. Once she is right and healthy and sound she will come back here. You don't change what's working.
Prendergast's Hero lands deserved win
He stuck his head out well in fairness to him. He probably learned a lot from the last day when he had the visor for the first time. He jumped good and travelled well,.
Skies does more for fantastic pedigree
She handles the surface well and that's her second win here. She's been progressing from each run and could be a nice filly going forward. She travelled well, went forward and kept going well. She has a fantastic pedigree (half-sister to Motivator), so every win to her is important.
"Nice evening's work" from Oliver's 1,2,3
They are three nice horses. We've had a bit of a backlog from earlier in the year and are just getting them out. It was an opportunity to run and we only have one more mile and a half maiden left so we had to run them all,. It was a bit unfortunate to take yourself on. I thought there was a possibility that could happen but not sure which order it might be. The winner is a nice well-bred horse and to come off the back of a run was great. The second is a lovely big scopey horse and one to develop, and the third is a very nice horse and was just beaten by greenness. He's only done one piece of work away. It's certainly a nice evening's work!. I'd like to win with the other two, and I have another couple to run here. There is one mile and a quarter maiden and one mile and a half maiden left here.
Monarch has Andy Mc and pals smiling
A group of friends from Galway claimed him here last year, they are a good bunch of lads and they'll get a big kick out of this,.
