The Acropolis a significant winner for sire Churchill
Young Angel wins Listowel maiden
Orr secures a double on Cisco Disco
He is a grand little horse and I ran him back quickly but he is in such good form at the minute I wasn't one bit reluctant to do so. Thankfully it worked out. It took him a while to get it together which is fine because now the penny is really starting to drop and in doing so has won a couple of races. We'll see what the handicapper does, hopefully he isn't too harsh on him and can win another one before the season is out. He is ground-versatile but wouldn't want extremes and he likes a turning track. He is a half-brother to the infamous (stablemate) Glow Worm (a 30-race maiden)!
My Sister Sarah seals doubles for Mullins and Lordan
Kinirons relishes his first double
This is my new favourite track! I rode a double in a point-to-point but that is my first racecourse double - I hardly ever have two runners. She won well in Gowran and it was a write-off the last day as she jumped a bit quick, was keen and got struck into. It was also the wrong thing to do stepping her up in trip and she did everything right today and another top young lad was riding. She is a filly on the up, and is in again at Cork on Wednesday, so hopefully they'll divide it as both her and (earlier division winner) Mary Salome are getting in. We have a lovely team coming up, we have 20 horses and while we have a handful of jumpers, 90 per cent are for the flat. We are always looking for more horses.
