Curragh Mon, 1st May, 2023  Shimmerz said Rutledge. I said to him 'go and win?' and he said if you win on her we'll have to bring you home so I'm going home with them now I think!. It was a bit of a surprise but in fairness to Gary he was confident in her work at home. As much as it's a surprise he knew that she had ability and they are delighted. She handled the ground really well and I'd say some others didn't today. I'd be trying to place her for soft ground if I was him. I'm grateful for all the opportunities I'm getting. I can't believe how well it's going but at the same time I suppose I am putting the work in and it's nice to get rewarded.

Tramore Mon, 17th Apr, 2023  Pidoyne I'm delighted for the lads in the syndicate who are locals and they are great supporters of ours. I'm really happy to get a win for them here. They've been a little bit unlucky with her on her last couple of runs so it's nice to see her winning, Hugh gave her a super ride. He rode her the last twice and had done really well on her. I've no plan for her now, we'll enjoy today and see what's coming up. She seems to appreciate an ease in the ground but she might go on better ground too, we'll see.

Cork Sat, 8th Apr, 2023  Joe Masseria He actually ran a good race in the Lincoln. They went no gallop and I had said to Leigh (Roche) to drop him out and he ended up having too much to do, but it wasn't Leigh's fault, it was my instructions. . He wants soft ground, he is only a little titch of a horse and is not as big and strong as the fella he is named after. I've recently moved away from cowboys and into gangster names and Joe Masseria was one of the mafia. Seven furlongs is his minimum, he needs soft ground so we'll keep tipping along if the ground is easy and he can run in those big handicaps if he gets soft ground.
