Slaney East battles well for Manning
Pontchateau another winner for Twomey and Lee
All of my horses take their first run, . I ran a few in maidens in the last week, they all run as good as they can the first day but racing experience seems to bring them on. I was hoping he'd run a nice race today and he went and did that nicely. He's tough. He wears the visors because he's lazy but he's not ungenuine. He's in the July sales and he'll go there. I'd say he could go abroad or he might go jumping, he's a fine horse. He likes fast ground and he'll do well wherever he goes.
Well-treated Protagonist goes in again
He did it the way we thought he'd do it. We kind of had to go here after what the handicapper gave him. He came out of his race well last week and hopefully there is a bit more improvement in him. He'll go for a race in Navan next Friday provided the ground is safe. Shane said he only just got away with that today, he wouldn't want it any quicker. Being gelded over the winter and stepping up in trip has helped him, said Shane Foley. We’ve always liked him at home and it’s nice to get a winner for Mr. Buckley (winning owner Michael Buckley).
Reverberation wins well for Lambe and Ryan
I thought he'd need the run and he'll improve loads,. A lot of mine seem to be taking a run this year. A mile will probably suit him as he won going away. He's in at Leopardstown on Wednesday and I just thought he'd benefit from the run today. Mine had a nice bit of a break down the lockdown. He came here on the back of two pieces of work. I thought he'd run well but thought he would need it. I ran him over 7f as I knew he’d come home well.
Rain Or Shine Foley is a jockey to follow
Baby Powers to victory to give Ryan a double
Ideally her trip is six and a half. But I won’t be stepping her up in trip. Why change it when it works? . She gets going late and that’s the way you have to ride her. She battles it out well, she’s a grafter.
Another Flat winner for Blackmore ahead of Irish Derby spin
As Rachael said he's probably the best horse in the race. He seemed to come on from the last day and I'd probably have been disappointed if he got beat, I know that's probably his grade. He's a grand fun horse. I'd say he'll go back over hurdles now but there might be another one in him on the Flat. He seems to be enjoying it at the moment. Rachael gets the best out of him, he seems to go for her so we won't change anything.
Vermillion makes it a Red letter day for Coleman
This is my first winner in Ireland. I had a winner last May in Beverley.
