Emotional Duke pays tribute to Paddy Bolger after Wexford winner

That win is for Paddy Bolger. He was a terrific friend of mine and is an unbelievable loss to the Bolger family and to humanity, so that's for him. He is a grand horse who could do with a bit better ground as there was plenty of water on it. That win will do him the power of good and he jumped very well.

Weather quickly follows-up on Cork success

I'm delighted. It probably wasn't ideal running him back again that quick. I don't think he is a horse to be turned out again so quick but we were kind of forced to run him with the 13lb rise. He was 6lb well-in and needed every pound of it today. It's brilliant to win another race with him as they are so hard to win. He won with a little bit in hand. Rachael said he just leaned a little bit. He was probably getting a bit tired towards the finish. He is definitely going to get a little break now and give him a chance to freshen him up, we won't run him back for a month. He will probably go to Listowel. He might be better in a better race with a light weight as he is not overly big. I'm delighted for Sean, he is a Galway man and has stuck with me all through the years. Even when I was with Eoin Doyle he’d always have something with us. He had For A Finish and Indian Fair. He is a lucky owner and I'm delighted for him.

Buckley finding his feet on Irish soil

That win was coming. He is a fun horse, Kieran said he will jump a fence too. He is only a young horse. Gavin (Cromwell) had him previously and won with him in Tramore. We claimed him out of a race at Clonmel. He has won and been placed for us now and is another advertisement for those claiming races as he wasn't a dear horse. He could win over fences and on the Flat. He is just a galloper. Seamus (Devlin) is from Tyrone and it's his first winner so I'm delighted for him.

Act Of God opens his account over fences

Brouder boys at the double at Wexford

He likes going left-handed so that's why we come here a good bit. It's hard enough to get races at this grade at left-handed tracks. He won at Tipperary before too. We tried going right-handed but it just hasn't paid off, so we will try to stick to the left-handed tracks. He has a low mark over hurdles and we had a choice to go for a hurdle or a chase today but we went with the chase. He might go back over hurdles at some stage.

Rachael keeps her Coole to register a double

Cullen & Harney combine to land the bumper

She had the form in the book coming into this race. The only concern I had was that Punchestown is a very different track to Wexford and whether the sharper track would suit her. She is a handy filly and is progressive and hopefully the boys will have a bit of fun with her. It's special to me because Lorcan Higgins is a good friend of mine for many years and it's his first winner on the track. I rode plenty of horses for him and probably got them beat! He is a local man so it's great for him to have a winner here. Young Lorcan is getting married next Friday so this is a nice early present. I had an entry made for her at Roscommon but the boys said there was a mares' bumper here and it actually suited better because I needed to get another gallop into her. Time wise it worked out perfect for me. I'll have a chat with the lads now and see where she will go next. She has schooled over hurdles and jumps great. There is a winners' bumper at Down Royal on the 26th and it is an option. We will mind her anyway. Her half-sister goes fairly well on soft ground so I'd imagine she is versatile enough as long as it's not extremes, heavy or firm.
