Bob keeps run going with Belleau
I'm delighted with her, this Bob is a fair sire. We'll see where she goes now, possibly for a nursery on Oaks weekend. I'll have to speak to connections.
Ennis on target in the West again
She'll go for another handicap now, probably at Galway. She'd like a cut in the ground. When she won as a two-year-old she beat an O'Brien filly (Famous) by seven lengths. That was on good ground but she loves a bit of juice.
Option Be gains a well-deserved win
Six furlongs is really his trip, he is quick and he just got away with it there (over seven furlongs). He travelled terrible and I had to have one of my staff with him the whole way over. He came over here because the lads (the owners) are from just down the road. He won't go to Galway as there is no race for him there. He'll go somewhere the week after.
Another Lenebane for Oxx
It's hard to make all and she is a lazy filly that will never win by far, she just does enough. The Galtres at York could be a target now. We had cheek-pieces on her before and they could go back on again even though in fairness to her she is a good honest filly that gallops away. She just doesn't kill herself. It's great for Niall (70 rides and 71 days without a winner), he is off the cold-jockeys list.
Rene Humor's Prendergast on birthday
Oxx doubles up with Dawn
We weren't sure if she'd stay as she is a half-sister to Namid. It was a good performance there though from a nice filly and being by Selkirk she should get further.
