Beach Belle impresses in opener of campaign
She's quite smart although I don't know how she'll do when the ground dries out a bit. She's been quite good from the first bit of work she's done.
Gardens has a bit of a stroll in the park
She had a good run last year and I thought she'd done well from two to three. She does need that ground though and I don't really know where we'll go next. It's hard for three-year-old sprinters taking on older horses. There's a vague possibility that she might go for the Guineas Trial at Leopardstown next week but we'll have to see how she comes out of this first,.
Stack yard quick into stride again
He was a bit unlucky at Navan one day last year when he got mugged on the line and I probably ran him back a bit too quick after that at Redcar.
Often just gets the verdict in Park Express
That was a lovely performance and she's a nice, tough filly. She won well at Naas last year. The key is she loves that ground and that's why we got her out early. She's beautifully bred and it's great to get her a Group 3 win. She will be considered for the Irish 1,000 Guineas. She handles a good cut in the ground, and she's tough and stays.
Double up for Lordan at HQ
Wayne gave her a great ride. She was stakes place so she probably deserved to win,.
Stuccodor completes Weld big race double
He's been a very consistent horse for us, and was touched off by a stable-companion in a valuable handicap at Galway last year. He deserved a big pot like that. He's very effective on that ground, and it was a very good ride by Pat. He'll go back over hurdles later in the year.
Answered looks a real nice type for Bolger
He had a bit of a setback last September and we just missed getting him out last backend. I'm hoping he'll be back here in May (the Guineas) and he'll go for a Guineas trial.
