Bobby battles bravely to score under Keane
He showed great resolution there and we like him. He wanted every bit of that mile. He was very professional and quick out of the stalls,. He went down half a length inside the last furlong so to come back at him again shows great guts. He'll be a trip horse next year. We'll put him away now and let him grow up a bit, that was a bonus. He's still a little bit of a baby and we'll see how he progresses over the winter, hopefully he will progress well. We were always going to put him away and now that he's done that we'll take stock.
Ryker gains deserved win
He's a lovely big horse and he's after putting together a few good runs. He deserved his day today and seven on that surface suited him really well,. Now that he's won his maiden we'll go handicapping with him and take it from there. He's a big horse and has had a light season so there is plenty of racing left in him.
Coreczka wins another for Cannon
Seanie shows plenty of spark on the sand
Smullen inches closer in thrilling title race
Oliver delighted with 50/1 winner
They are two nice horses and both are in partnership with the same guy, JP Ledwidge. They are just horses we had to take time with, horses that need a trip. We didn't think that they were more than just ready so I'm actually delighted with that performance. There should be a lot of improvement. Conor was very impressed and said there is a heap of improvement, so time will tell. They pulled well clear and I'm very pleased. We'll have to see what the handicapper does but after beating an 85-rated horse he might even turn up in the Carlingford Stakes (October 13th) although that is a mile-and-two. I don't know and time will tell us. It's a pleasant surprise as I didn't think either of the two of them were ready enough.
McLoughlin keeps title-leader Keane happy
He said when he gave him a slap he curled up a bit but he said he has plenty of stamina and stays well, keeps galloping and that's really what he does. He was here last year, and was unlucky a few times, and we'll keep him going over the winter. We won't run him too often, as he runs well fresh, and we'll look for something in a few weeks time. Any day that man (Colin Keane) rings looking for the ride sure you have to keep him happy, he's riding well.
French Mix a revelation on Polytrack
