Tylery a Curragh Wonder
Billy wasted hard and fair dues to him he did the weight well. It was worth it as he knows him so well. It was a bad draw (in 5), but not a bad draw for him as he likes being on his own so it suited. Billy got him into a lovely rhythm and said he was always picking up.
Hall Of Mirrors baffles his rivals
That was always liable to happen as the other horse is fit. He has had runs and he ran a very good race at Ascot.We knew he (Kingsbarns) would get tired today, but he had to run. He came there but got tired. The winner is a very good yardstick. He goes a nice pace and he doesn't lie down. He's a tough hardy gelding. Kingsbarns is a horse that's had plenty of things and that's why we've minded him so much. We wanted to get him started and see. It doesn't always go according to the script!
Raydara's finishing kick sees her home
I'm thrilled with her. When she won her maiden she made the running after finding herself in front, but I thought we made a little bit too much use of her the last day. We're only learning about her. She got a break to freshen her up after that. We took her away to the Curragh the other day and she worked very well. Shane said she went up through the gears pretty good and he was delighted. She's a very smart filly. Today was a big test and she came through it well. I'll talk to Pat (Downes) now and he'll discuss plans with his Highness. The Moyglare is the obvious target, but she does love it fast and she might have had enough for this year. She's had her four runs and this is the time of the season that fillies can start to go off.
Gleneagles wins his Group 2 in good style
Leading Light brings up O'Brien's treble
I'm delighted with that. He's had a good break since Ascot. We let him down well after that and it's nice to get him started back. He came here two weeks ago for a canter to wake him up a bit. He should come on nicely from that as he's giving a good blow.
Kalann gives Harty weekend to savour
Adjusted gives O'Brien four-timer
He won well and kept galloping. He stays well. He's a grand staying horse and will make a grand jumper. He's a big solid horse.
