Patience pays off with Olympic Man

Fun Fun Fun for Closutton team at Naas

That was super. The race suited her, a quick enough two miles, and she jumped great, a little bit keen. She'll go to Fairyhouse next, I don't know if two-and-a-half miles there will really suit her but it's mares novice Grade 1 so she'll go there. I can't wait for her to go chasing next year, her pedigree is all staying chasers. I think when she goes over fences she might be able to go out in trip. If she jumps as well she could be hard to catch in those mares chases next year. She wants to win and she just loves jumping. In her bumpers we were trying to hold her up but when she's so good to jump you're better off just letting her roll away and I think that's improved her.

Hillsdale digs deep to open account

It wasn't the plan to make it. The last day he looked home and hosed, he's a quirky fella,. He's very difficult, he's not for young lads to ride out or anything. Keith did a great job with him. He ran away the last day but I'd say the ground was a lot heavier in Fairyhouse. I'm delighted with the way he battled there, it's great. We'll try him again and he'll go chasing next year, he's a big horse. The owner (Brian Pierce) isn't here, he's a good supporter of ours.

Hartur D'arc now 2 from 2 for Cromwell with Leinster National win

That was nice. We weren't really sure whether he'd stay but obviously when we pitched him in here we thought he might,. He gave him a nice ride and everything happened for him. It was a lovely pot to win. You'd have to consider the Irish National with him, I know it's a lot further.

McCann's confidence in Familiar Dreams well-founded

She (Aine O'Connor) rode her like the best horse in the race and she did exactly the same as she did in Cork,.
