Lucid Dreams a clearcut winner for Ryan
This is probably the best horse I ever put a bridle on and I don't say that lightly, I've had a lot of good horses down the years, but this horse is special. He's big, he's strong, clear-winded and sound. He's by Arcadio and loves a bit of nice ground. The dam is a sister to Monkerhostin. He's huge, 17 hands, and that's why he hasn't run until lately. He'll stay 2m4f and will probably want three miles in time. He'll be a lovely novice for the summer.
Banntown Girl off the mark over hurdles
It's great to get her off the mark over hurdles. I thought we were goosed turning in but Philip was great, he filled her up the whole way down the back and rode her to get home. I'd say two miles is her trip, she's not slow. The drop of rain before racing was no harm as she's a big mare, but actually her best runs were in Leopardstown on decent ground. She's a great mare though, fifteen runs, two wins, twelve times in the first four and one bad run at Cheltenham. And she's four times black-type as well, it's fair going. She has a mark of 109 over fences so we could do that at some stage but we've nothing in mind yet for her next run.
