Stoneford another for Meade & Donoghue
Maguire's on the mark with Littlestickarubarb
Shrewdoperator another for in-form Rothwell
He loves heavy and loves jumping and I was just hoping the meeting would be on. Deep ground, on two miles and over big jumps is what he wants. He might now sneak into a big handicap off a low weight but if the ground isn't heavy he won't run. Mallow has been very lucky for me and all year I've had just ten runners but four winners. I've some very nice four year old horses to run this year and am in a much more fortunate situation than I was 18 months ago.
Name comes from last to first under King
She ran a blinder at Downpatrick last Sunday but you just have to be patient with her and she has to be switched off. She was very keen in her point to points but loves heavy ground and we'll go for a handicap hurdle next - she is rated 83 over hurdles. I'm based in Killylea, Co Armagh so stayed locally with Tom Barry last night to give her a chance so a big thanks to him. It'll take five and a half hours to get home, but it'll feel like two and a half!
Hannon & Kelly on the mark with Contender
Wilcosdiana gets O'Sullivan off the mark
I've had four point to point winners and turned 18 last month and am doing my leaving cert this year. She was the easiest winner I'll have and I don't think I missed one fence. She pricks the ears and is an easy ride. I'm a bit light for point-to-points and I'd like to give going professional a go.
Well-regarded Judkin impresses at Cork
He was one of the fastest horses I've ever had when he came in training, and has never run a bad race and cantered up at Lismore. He'll be out to grass now and is really a horse to look forward to. We think a lot of him and he'll go hurdling next season. I rate him highly and he has a lovely attitude and is from the family of One Man.
