Bob best in Listowel opener
Cyclone hits Listowel for latest win
on ratings he was entitled to win it and had a good run in the Galway Hurdle.
Crown wins a deserved Gold
He has been unlucky not to have won before now, being beaten by good horses in maidens and better handicapped horses in handicaps,.
Hanlon and Hayes win with Diamond Dame
she is a Darley castoff and we always knew she was a good mare but we couldn’t get her right early in the year. She did seem to be peaking coming here. I’ll see what happens next as I’ve no plans.
No stopping Lady after 5 in a row
She jumped well and travelled well and did what she had to do and was entitled to do,. She has found the knack of winning - that's as soft as she has run on and you couldn't say she didn't go on it. I'll have a chat with Willie and see where we go next. She has a very good jump in her and was very professional.
2 for Mullins as Kyle does it again
He has been running so well over hurdles - he won this race last year and I knew he was in better form coming here today,. He's in the Kerry National on Wednesday and if he gets in he'll run. He is number 10 on the ballot though but if he gets in, I'd fancy him again. He beat Rogue Angel in this last year and he went on to win the Irish National. He is a smashing horse and Danny was brilliant on him.
Favourite Le Martalin lives up to his billing
I don't think there's any need for him to run in a winners' bumper and I'll see what Mark (Dwyer, husband of owner Jane Dwyer and former jump jockey) wants to do as he could be sold,.
