Townend keeps his Cool
Paul (Townend) deserves his chance with Ruby injured and he had schooled Cooldine at home recently.
Jimmy Ber wins in Eustace colours
Jimmy Ber prefers good ground and that is the best ground he has had so far this year. He is not good enough to go for the top conditions' hurdles and will probably go handicapping next.
I'm delighted for Tommy (Treacy) as he missed a winner on the horse, through suspension, at Listowel in September.
Experience helps Alpine
Alpine Eagle settled a lot better today than he did at Cork last time out and is improving all the time. He's a nice horse and we'll go for a winners' race next.
Steve Capall scores
win or lose, the plan was to go hurdling with Steve Capall after today so today was a bonus!
