Oonagh brings Cotter further joy
She's been working very well at home and I think she's a bit better than an average maiden. That's probably her trip (seven furlongs). (AM & EM)
O'Brien gets it spot on Ishvana
McCullagh delivers Paris down the fence
He didn't settle the last day and I felt going a stronger pace over seven furlongs would suit him. I'm keen to get him back on grass but there have been very few opportunities over this trip. Ground is the key to him as he needs good ground.
O'Brien & Morgan continue serious record
As far as I know Joseph has had five rides for me and that's four winners now and he was also third in a Group 3. This fellow is a big leggy horse and I always thought he'd be better this year. It would be nice to win one of those big handicaps with him.
Job done with Misty Lane
I don't know where we'll go next but she's a filly that's had a few problems. We ironed those out for today though. (AM & EM)
Sneezy off the mark with Sli
I only took out a licence to train on the flat at Christmas. The filly loved that trip . she was very genuine and tough. We'd have preferred to have had something in front of her for longer though.
Alhellal now 2 from 3 on the polytrack
He'll probably come back here in 16 days time.
