Derulo wins on debut for Doyle
I was worried about the penalty but for that I thought we would have a fair squeak. He does jump well. He got a beautiful ride. Sean just hung on to him, it's a long old way up that straight. He's a lovely horse to get. The owner thought he would enjoy hurdles so that's how I got him. He'll go the novice route for the summer.
Reserve Shan just gets the better of Hall
I'd say a step up in trip would be better. He'll pay his way and he is well handicapped on the flat. He's a summer horse. We'll have a bit of craic with him, he could go to Perth. There are 20 in the syndicate (the Twenty Times Two Syndicate) and they are from everywhere!
Hayes back with a winner on Kilkishen
I'm thrilled for Brian (Hayes) as it is his first day back after eight weeks out with a pelvis. He is dedicated to his job. Even when he was hurt he was in and about the yard.
O'Regan off the mark for Connell
He's a nice horse and he did it well. He jumped very cleverly for him. Denis said he would be better in a better race. Barry said he will go to Killarney for a winners of one over two miles six. He has plenty of schooling done since his fall and is a brave horse.
Mitebeall wins comfortably under Townend
He hasn't missed a day, we were waiting for the ground. We think that's his trip. He was knocking on the door in the autumn but not finishing his races. He's a big horse and that'll give him confidence. Hopefully he'll have a good summer.
McCrory enjoys first track success
Estate provides Slevin with first win
He was totally written off the first day and he wasn't beaten that far and was staying on. The better ground helped. He might come back here for a winners' bumper.
