Asian Master readily lands the odds in Navan opener

My Trump Card books Albert Bartlett ticket

It's very tough work and he probably sent him on plenty early today, I was giving out to him the last day for not making enough use of him!. He said he was idling in front and was never going to get beat. He's a big, raw horse and we might put cheek pieces on him the next day. He's very laid-back and you couldn't give him enough work. He's probably more of a chaser than a hurdler, he said when he's right he's good but when he's wrong he has no respect for hurdles. He'll maybe head straight for the Albert Bartlett now.

Harvard Guy completes Navan hat-trick in feature

Butty O Brien strikes again at Navan

We were really happy with her coming back here today. The young lad did nothing wrong on her the last day but Eoin knows her so well and knowing this mare is a big deal. Eoin has been schooling her for years now, he's been helping me out since the start. He just gets her jumping, he sits against her and leaves her alone. She dictated it again today and she was pretty impressive today, I thought she was just idling in front. Eoin was impressed with her and she's building a bit of momentum now. There is a meeting back here in three weeks or a month so she'll probably come back here for that. I was delighted with her in Naas because she wasn't beaten that far and she never jumped a hurdle like she did here. She's handicapped over fences as well.

Minella Cocooner gets back in the winning groove

It was a huge improvement from his first run but obviously he'd had a long time off with injuries. He jumped spectacular there and seemed a lot more settled than he was in his hurdling days. Paul was delighted with him.

St Denis's Well makes successful transition to fences

All the lads drink in Declans Bar in Clogherhead so they'll have a few pictures for the wall now and they are all happy men. He did it well and I was delighted. We were confident coming here, he's always jumped well. We were humming and hawing before we came to the track whether we'd run him in a point-to-point. He had jumped plenty of fences, he's probably jumped 200 fences by now, so we had no real fear that way. He made one little mistake and Jack said it was his own fault as he should have kept going forward on him. He did it easy and he might run under a penalty on Tuesday at Down Royal, we'll see how he comes out of it. Then he'll get a holiday, he'll be a stronger horse next year.

William Munny makes winning bumper debut in a thriller

We knew we'd win a bumper with him. He's a six-year-old so he's had loads of time. He has been to a schooling race before and ran okay. He was very keen last year and with the extra year, and a bit of maturity, he's settling better. When they went no pace there I was just afraid he might be doing a bit too much in that ground. I think he'll come on for it because he was very green. When Finny went to put him into the gap between the two favourites he didn't really know what he was at or where he was going. Eventually he got through it and they had to keep quickening. He's very fit, he's not having much of a blow there. He's very unlike a Westerner, they are normally big strapping horses, he looks like a bumper horse. I don't know how good he's going to be down the line but he's definitely a nice horse to have. I'd say he might run in Fairyhouse or somewhere like that. I don't think I'll be going across the water with him but he's probably entitled to if you wanted to. It's great to get one on the board. When you give them two-and-a-half years, and give them the time, it's nice to get the reward for it because it doesn't always happen. We're thrilled.
