Tied Fit for a Limerick win
He was entitled to do that and will go for something similar next. He's going to be a nice horse next season when we send him over fences,.
Mullins & Townend win Limerick Grade 3
2 at Limerick for McManus and McGarvey
Off his mark (118) if he didn't win that we'd be in a spot of bother. He's a good looking horse and hopefully he'll continue to improve,. We're just happy to have got his maiden win out of the way but he'd want to keep improving. I don't think he's a summer type as he has plenty of knee action but we'll see what the plan will be.
Townend doubles up with Donegal Tuesday
I’m delighted for Stevie (Fahy) as he made some effort to come today - I was stopping him coming, as his legs are weak, but it’s great!. I’m after running her twice in a week and she might also go on better ground, as she’s by Presenting. It’s my plan to run in the west of Ireland with her for Stevie and hopefully she can go to Galway for the festival. I could have claimed 5lbs (jockey) but if I did, she’d have been beaten! It was a big call for me make but opted not to claim and use Paul (Townend) and it worked.
Townend continues hot streak at Limerick
McCurtin gets in on the act at Limerick
He's been a great servant to win three races. If it hadn't been on the outside track here I wouldn't have even declared him because he needs a galloping track. He'll go for something similar,.
5 on the day for Elliott
It was a very ordinary contest but they still take winning. He has a mark of 117 and I doubt he'll (the handicapper) will be doing much with his mark after that. He'll go handicapping next,
