McConnell winners keep flowing with Sharp Object
I was a little bit worried - I thought I was taking a bit of a risk dropping her down in trip, but Ben said it was easy for her,. From the last up to the line, up a hill, she actually put distance between herself on her own which Ben and I were impressed with. She's a nice filly and she has already got black-type and I would hope she would be a black-type filly over hurdles as well. We had a little bit of a blip then in the middle of the winter, but that's all sorted now. When she is on song, she is very good. We'll go the novice hurdle route. I don't know if we will go through the winter, but we will certainly go up until October and then we will see what we do. It was a good pot and I think it is a bonus race as well for fillies, so that's a big thing. I'm delighted for Syndicates Racing.

Kinirons dedicates Downpatrick win to sadly departed McCluskey
That's her finished now, she's in foal to In Swoop. It is great that Peter (Byrne, owner) was here today,. She was first reserve in Galway las week and he didn't come over because it didn't look like she was getting in. We got in last minute, so we are delighted. She's unbelievable, she has seven wins for me. She loves it here. She's keen and she is tough. She is just able to get a breather here and is easier on the jockey. It is actually 17 years ago today that I rode a bumper winner (on Luck's A Lady) for Neill McCluskey who died last month. I'd like to dedicate that win to him. It is very sad, he was a lovely fella.
