Gamigin comes from off the pace to land Sligo opener
Ten Ten Twenty deservedly gets off the mark
He'd a couple of good runs in second, including at Galway where he just got a little bit of a bump in the dip and was maybe a little bit unlucky. He did that nicely there and he's a good, tough, honest horse. He got the trip well and he'd probably have no bother going up another couple of furlongs. He's fairly versatile in terms of trip and ground.

Sunset too Hot for Nursery rivals
She's a lovely little filly who takes her racing really well. She'd a good run in Navan the last time when she battled well, and she saw it out well today. She'll go for something similar and should stay a bit further. I'm delighted for the owners, Patrick O’Brien and Stephen Luddy, who are here with their families and friends and they gave her a good cheer home.
Betrayed leads home McGuinness 1,2
We weren't going to run them. I was nearly going to turn back when I saw the ground had changed,. Luckily they were drawn low enough and they were just able to jump and sit and take their time. They didn't have to get after them early doors which is a big factor here. Cian gave the winner a great ride, he didn't panic. When he got into the straight he just switched her out and she's probably done it snug enough but hopefully the handicapper won't be too hard on her. She's not badly rated compared to her all-weather mark and she has good all-weather form as well. She'll progress but she'll probably be sold at the end of the year, although my other half (Hazel McGuinness, co-owner along with Gary Devlin) owns half of her so we'll see!. The second filly (Faraah) ran a great race. She was an expensive enough yearling but hopefully she’ll get her head in front soon. We had been hard on her, so we gave her a bit of a break and ran her fresh. It seems to have worked and she’s guaranteed a run in low-grade handicaps now.
