Dundalk Fri, 6th Oct, 2023  Dandyville he's a nice little horse to have in the yard. He was carrying top-weight today so he performed well. He was stepping up to seven furlongs and just kept galloping towards the line. He was fit and well coming here and loves it up here. Huge credit to the owners (Dr J Syndicate) as well, they bred him and they are local to the yard. We have him nominated for Dubai so we'll see what happens.

Bellewstown Wed, 27th Sep, 2023  Manhattan Dandy He ran well the last day, so we were confident enough as he had form on the ground. The last day we landed in front, but it actually may be the right way to ride him around these tighter tracks anyway. I was just hoping it would stay on!. With Rob claiming 5lb off him, we knew he had a nice light weight on his back. He was in great form at home. I couldn't believe on Monday when he got drawn one, I thought all the stars were aligned. It is a little family team, but it means a lot. I'm in Batterstown just beside Fairyhouse, so it is literally half an hour up the road. There might be a few celebrations tonight!

Gowran Park Wed, 6th Sep, 2023  Alabama Pearl She didn’t look like one that would take ten runs to break her maiden and as Ben said we thought she would win a two-year-old maiden. It’s taken her a while and the six weeks or so she has been very consistent and maybe she bumped into a couple of well handicapped horses. Dropping back into maiden class today Ben said she was always travelling strong and hit the line really well.

Navan Sat, 2nd Sep, 2023  The Highway Rat He had a very nice run on the opening day of the season (at the Curragh in March) which we thought was on very unsuitable heavy ground. He was beaten off top-weight and we were delighted, and we thought this was his season. Then he had a setback and we are just getting him out now. We thought he was plenty short for today, but it was just opportunity. He did that well and Billy was delighted with him. It all went straightforward and to plan.

Curragh Sat, 26th Aug, 2023  Arnhem We're over the moon, that's brilliant. You couldn't ask for a nicer place to have a winner. We've had him from May. He's had brilliant form in the past and he deserves that win, he's been too long without a win and he's had such good runs. He's such a good horse. He has a lovely temperament and he's a brilliant wee horse to have anything to do with. We only have him and another one as part of the syndicate for David, that's all and a couple of breakers.
