Days comes good in Clonmel opener
We have no fancy aspirations but he'll jump a fence in time.

Gallagher is Backinthere
She's fair tough. When I declared her yesterday the ground was yielding and I might have taken her out if it had stayed dry. She needs it soft and will only run again if it keeps raining. Otherwise she will be put away to go over fences next season. She's all stamina, stamina, stamina!
Oscar sweeps rivals aside
He did the job well and is a grand horse but all the hard work was done as I only got him last week. I knew the horse well as he was previously trained close by me. Chasing is his job, and he's entitled to run in a winners-of-one although that's a big step up. He's capable of going further.
Crack provides welcome cheer for Fahey
He's a bit of a rogue as everyone knows but he likes this course. The rain didn't do him any harm and it may have inconvenienced some of the others. It's a good prize and all credit to JP (McManus) for sponsoring the series.
Impressive success for Turn
He loves that soft ground and he will make a smashing chaser. We'll wait to see what Michael (O'Leary) wants to do next.
