Lordan gets Masters home in opener
He's a grand horse. He's big and could be a nice horse in time,. Weakness just caught him out in the last 100 yards.
Marnane and O'Donoghue strike again
He's been running fantastic all season and is very consistent,. He'll probably go to the horses in training sale later in the year and would suit somebody in Dubai. I was surprised how he handled the ground today.
Ultra flies home for Hayes
She was second in a maiden here earlier in the year but then disappointed at Ballinrobe so we gave her a break,. There is a three-year-old only race at Ayr next week for her and she will probably go there.
Dainty double for Wachman and Lordan
She's a good tough genuine filly. This is her trip and we'll find a similar race again for her,.
Walsh has to settle for third on return
He was out for a good while and I thought he might need the run. He had a good pipe opener last week in the Ladies race,. He jumps savagely well and he'll probably go for a beginners chase. He's for sale and we own him ourselves so if anyone wants to buy him get in contact!. He likes a cut in the ground and has got a lot stronger. He could turn into a decent horse. I wasn't expecting him to win but he was fitter than I thought.
Shopfront continues on a roll
He's improving all the time. The ground wouldn't have been ideal,. He's in at Perth on Sunday but is far from certain to go. I would like to run him at Bellewstown as the owner (Sean Gallagher) lives beside it but I don't think there is anything suitable.
Better times for McLoughlin
She stays and gallops so we decided to make plenty of use of her,. Her best form in England was on soft so we knew she would handle the ground. My father must have been looking down on me.
