Nolan continues good run
That was great, that's 3 winners from 4 runners so hopefully my good run will continue. There's a winners of one race for her here on the 9th of May so we'll comeback for that. She cost me ¿4000.00 at the Sales. I owe a lot to Jim Bolger as he lets me use his gallops. I used to work for Jim Bolger and I rode over 50 winners for him.
McDonogh seen to good effect
She needs fast ground that's the key to her and she never got it last year. We will hopefully win another handicap with her. I have about 10 or 12 horses in training at the moment a mixture of flat and national hunt horses.
An Tadh scores for Lyons
That was great for the owner, the horse had gone a bit sour so we sent him home to the owner Vincent Gaul and he had him out in the field with his daughters pony and it seems to have really freshened him up, he's comeback with the right frame of mind. He's a good horse on his day and hopefully he'll continue to run well.
She is a very nice filly and the track really suited her. We hope to go jumping with her next, we have been schooling her over hurdles at the moment and she jumps well. She needs good ground.
McDonogh records double
Berry/Marnane win last at Dundalk
She's a nice filly and she wants good ground. We'll see what the handicapper does with her but we'll probably come back here for another handicap.
