Montesilvano makes most to win Leopardstown maiden

Colgan times it to perfection on Amanirenas

We liked her in the spring, she tweaked something at the back of her knee the last day and that's why she hasn't run for two months,. We've been slowly nursing her back and I honestly thought she'd need the run today but I felt she was well treated. Ideally I wanted to go and win a maiden but I felt the handicapper had been generous to me. She did everything wrong in Dundalk and got beat. The form of her first run in Cork wasn't too bad but last time she hit every ridge in Gowran and got totally unbalanced. She just wasn't 100 percent after that. I was hoping that was in her but I just didn't think it would be today. She'll come forward from today. She seems to be getting a little bit more professional. I don't know why she ran with the choke out in Dundalk, she got no cover. We'll find a nice fillies handicap somewhere with her. She seems to stay the seven well and doesn't mind the good ground so she'll probably be out quick enough again.

Ampeson records quick follow up win

He was very impressive to be fair to him,. He was double entered and this looked a handy enough one, no disrespect to any of the other horses, compared to the race he was in the first day. He did it easy the last day, and got a good hike. You'd be fearful coming back four days after his last run but he was that well in himself, even down in the stable yard today he was on the ball again. He seemed to do it nicely again there. If this had been a couple of races earlier we'd have been heading to the good race in the Curragh, the Scurry. We're delighted with that and he just seems to get better as he goes on. Luke gave him a class ride. The lad that does all the work at home Gavin Cosgrove deserves a lot of credit because he's directing me in a lot of ways as he's worked in a lot of good yards.

Caroline Street gives O'Brien and Crosse quick double

She's a nice filly and she had a lovely trial. She's won really well,. She was green and slowly away at Dundalk but we trialled her over six just to sharpen her a little bit. I thought today she broke much better and she travelled really sweetly through the race. She was very impressive. She got a little unbalanced but once she hit top gear she ran through the line very well. She'll be jumping into a stakes race and I'd say she'll have no problem coming back to seven.

Ocean gains deserved group win in Meld Stakes

He's been an unlucky horse, several times. He's good at that trip, or a mile-and-a-quarter, so we'll probably keep him to that,. We've no plans at the moment but he'll probably step up to a mile-and-a-quarter. We could probably go back in trip but then we'd be looking for more pace which you don't always get. He was keen today but he doesn't do himself any harm. He's an improver, he's getting stronger all the time.

Point Gellibrand brings up treble for O'Brien/Crosse

I suppose he was entitled to win on his form,. He was gelded since the last day and he'll probably step back into a nice race the next time. It probably wasn't ideal making the running but it's nice to get his head in front. He'll get confidence from that. He's rated 93 and he's not going to go up for that, he might drop him a few pounds!. There is a listed race back here over a bit further and then there are handicaps on Champions Weekend worth a few quid so he could go for something like that.
