Northern Surprise benefits from wind op
He goes like a nice horse at home but was disappointing in the spring and had a wind operation since his last run. The ground is as quick as he'd like it and he'll go to Galway for something next.
Knoxville Bullet takes down his rivals
Emmet gave him a great ride and left him alone early and he deserved that as he's a brave little horse whose form was solid. He was sore after running on really fast ground the last day and he went to Jim's (Ryan, owner) place where he patched him up and did a great job. A little bit of ease in the ground is key to him and five furlongs. He's a speedy sort. The best thing about him is his attitude. He looked beat a hundred yards out, and a furlong down he looked like they were going to come to get him and he just toughed it out.

Diakali back with a bang
It was (a smashing performance). He had been off the track for so long. We didn't want to school him either because he is very keen. He settled well and jumped very slick I thought. He was very, very slick. He's very keen and he was as a flat horse. When we bought him they told us that. I have one man riding him out and he rides him on his own so I don't see much of him in the morning either! . We were hoping that he wouldn't disgrace himself. I was hoping that if he brought his best game here that he'd win but those things don't always happen. When he was saddled up below in the stableyard I had a look at him and he looked very porky. We felt he had enough work done but he still looked like he was carrying a tummy.
Our Sox makes his stamina pay
He had been running away and had plenty experience and it stood to him today as he was tough.
