First winner for Danny Fitzgerald on Glorytogod Tom
That's Danny's first winner on the track and just his second ride against professionals. He is 18 and is in a good school with Liam Burke. He comes home to me then around midday. He is very tall but his weight is after stabling in the last year or two. He is lighter now than he was when he was 16. He rides away in point-to-point's every Sunday and had three winners point-to-pointing. This horse had a very good run in Cork and had very good horses in front of him. He was very free in his first run here at Wexford and he had to drop him in to settle him. They got wicked strung out the last day at Gowran and he found it very hard work to get back into the race. He finished seventh there and nothing was going to touch the first five home. Sixth would have been the best he could have managed there but I was very happy with his run there. My father is the owner, breeder and he is a grandson of Solerina. His half-brother won for me in Tramore. Fences will probably bring out the best in the two of them, but they will both be staying hurdling this season.
Sportinthepark makes bright start over hurdles
Double upsets the odds to leave connections in the Pink
She was just beaten on the nod at Tipperary and that was a good run. I was a bit worried about the ground here. She is not the easiest of rides but Brian settled her very well and it was probably the winning of the race really. They went strong and she was relaxed. She popped away and had a little bit left at the end. I left Brian do what he wanted today. He knows her now, he is after riding her a few times. I don't really have any plan for her, she might go to Leopardstown at Christmas. She will probably go to a handicap there if the handicapper isn't too hard on her, we'll see. Today was the first time she settled in a race and the fact she can be settled now opens up more options for her. We have schooled her over fences and she jumps them well. It's a way we might go with her later in the season, maybe in the spring, we'll see.
