Cossack Chach stays well on jumping debut
Emily In Paris just gets there in Killarney
I got hampered jumping the last the first time, but I always knew she would stay galloping. She probably doesn’t jump them old-style hurdles as well as the Easyfix, for whatever reason I don’t know, but she was genuine to the line. She was never travelling and she must be in season or something. That’s not her.
Lady Rita back to form under Blackmore
Lee so proud after Sole Pretender lands Killarney feature
That’s the best win since the day we started training. Lads have doubted our horse but he’s the best horse that we have ever had anything to do with. We were coming here today wondering would he take off. He burst a blood vessel in Galway last year and he’s thought about things a bit since. We were going for the Galway Plate with him and have decided to go to Galway on the Sunday for the Lord Hemphill Chase. I’m very proud of him. He’s a very, very good horse when he goes and if he goes at Galway on the Sunday he won’t be beaten either! He’ll go for six months of a break then because he deserves it. Robbie gave him a great ride and works with us every day. We said we’d put up somebody that knows him after JJ Slevin had to go back to Kilbeggan. We’ve a small stable of 12 horses and are trying to build it up. This horse is like a Grade 1 horse to us and is an outstanding bit of stuff. He may be a shade off Grade 1 but he’s our Grade 1 horse and is a credit to his owner Michael Hogan. The day he tells us he doesn’t want to go we won’t force him as he means too much to us.
