Martin and Breslin taking Galway by storm
He's a good horse . last night was good (Busted Tycoon) but today was exceptionally good. He was very good. He boiled over at Cheltenham and probably shouldn't have been in Punchestown after that. He's not over-big but what he is is very agile and nimble. You'd like he's a horse that'll be going to Cheltenham again next March.
Gold a winner to remember for connections
I told Robbie to keep it simple by jumping off in front even though it wasn't the ideal place to be. Hopefully Tom (Quinn, the winning owner) gets more horses now instead of cows.
Gale continues Martin's storming run
Union Dues wins like a proper one
Lough delights many with Plate triumph
Life in "old man" Express still
He won a big handicap here a few years back with Fran Berry. I told Ian today to try and stay in touch and that he'd come up the hill well. He gives his all every day he goes out and he's just a pleasure of a horse. He's an old man now but we keep him nice and happy . sweet and sound by bringing him to the beach regularly.
Kitten a Lucky one for favourite backers
Pat kept out for the better ground. He's a grand horse . he's tough and he battled well. My biggest problem now is that the ground is gone for most of my horses but we'll battle on anyway.
Tough Jayed gives Weld and Smullen a double
I warned everyone before that he'd hate that ground and so it proved. He's a top of the ground horse and a little bit delicate and light. He did what he had to do . he's a brave horse as he hated the ground and Pat said the same thing.
