River an easy winner of Limerick opener
Long Dog makes it four in-a-row
Wate And Sea scores fourth win
I thought the ground might be too soft for her but obviously it wasn't and she seems to have improved and got stronger. She'll got for another handicap.
Run For Firth bounces back to his best
The ground was too quick for him at Clonmel but was ideal today. The ground is running out a bit for him and while he is crying out for a fence, he might get another spin over hurdles if the ground is suitable.
Cooper & Gigginstown double-up with Lord
Mistakes don't stop Risk in Munster National
I thought the mistakes he made would cost him and while he was cantering coming down the hill, he made another mistake at the second last but winged the last. His run in the Galway Plate was a great run (third) and the key is to keep him freshened up so we backed off him after Galway and pin-pointed this with him. Andrew gave him a super ride but you deserve it when you work as he does and it's also my first win in the race. He's got a lot of class and these are tough races so my gut feeling is to give him a break but I'll speak to Roger (Brookhouse) before making plans. His runs at Cheltenham are shocking and he really only goes right-handed. I think he's done enough this side of Christmas.
