No Moment Of Weakness for Berry
I'm thrilled with that performance. Fran rode him the other morning and he was very happy with him. We bought him at Goresbridge for €1400. I love Big Bad Bob's they have a wonderful temperment. He was always a nice horse and he's come on really well.
Captain scores for Quinn
The horse was in great form and he needs good ground so we thought he'd run well. My brother Peter who lives in America owns the horse. We breezed him here in June but he wasn't making enough so my brother bought him back. We've always thought he was a very nice horse and i'm just thrilled that he won.
Lynam/Smullen score at Dundalk
We have been very easy on him. We will never run him over six furlongs again we'll keep him over five furlongs. He came up against a very good horse in Artic over six furlongs last time out but I just couldn't believe a horse could beat him that far. We've changed his training routine in that he's in a companion barn and he hasn't worked with any other horses, we've just breezed him.
Time Travels for O'Brien
He worked really well here during the week. Rory [Cleary] was really happy with him. He has always been a nice horse and the penny seems to have dropped. He had to have two wind jobs so it's taken awhile to get going again. We will probably look for something similiar for him.
Harley back in the winner's enclosure
She's a very consistent filly. We'll probably go for something similiar, she probably a bit unlucky the last day. It's great for Martin to be back in the winners enclosure after his injury. The filly is owned by Mr Bolger's daughter Fiona, she had a runner in the previous race but she was virtually pulled up. Martin said she just didn't handle the track.
Berry doubles up with Emrani
That's more or less what we thought. The addition of cheek pieces really helped today. We will play around a bit with him now, he'll probably run over a variety of distances and he probably doesn't need quick ground.
Smullen completes Dundalk Double
Tsar Paul lands a gamble
It was very obvious he just didn't stay the last day. He had a little wind operation during the Winter. He has been working with our good horse Luisant and after he ran well we knew this lad definitely had his chance.
