Leopardstown Thu, 22nd Aug, 2024  Platoon He's a very straightforward horse and he's just taken time to come to hand. . He's been coming along nicely in the past couple of weeks and we felt this was a nice race to start him in. The trip is his absolute minimum. . Probably the best part of the race was the gallop out, Jack couldn't pull him up at the line. . He's a horse that will get further, he has a nice bit of class and he'll come on a lot physically. . There is a winners' race for him in September or we could look at something like the Listowel Stakes. The Diamond Stakes in Dundalk could also suit him over an extended ten furlongs. . He's a horse to look forward to for the back-end and I think he'll definitely make up into a stakes horse.

Curragh Sat, 17th Aug, 2024  Grosvenor Square He has serious stamina when he gets into a rhythm. He's an exciting horse,. It's a quandary whether you follow him or don't follow him. I said to Ryan 'was he finished at the line' and he said he wasn't, that he galloped through the line. It's very hard not to go to Doncaster, we'll see what the lads want to do but it's three-year-olds. He's so uncomplicated, you go out there and let him go. He handles soft ground as well.

Galway Fri, 2nd Aug, 2024  Andromeda Wayne gave her a textbook ride. She's a filly we've thought an awful lot of. Last year we thought she was a stakes filly and we still think she will be a stakes filly. When we ran her in Bellewstown she ran nicely but we knew after a bit of a lay-off she was going to come on an awful lot. Wayne thought she had really come forward coming into this run and it's shown there, she really stretched away at the line. She's in the Give Thanks Stakes but that will probably come a bit soon for now. The obvious race would be back here for the Oyster Stakes in September, and try to get the black-type. She's a filly that I think will keep progressing now. She's got that win, we always thought she was genuine and Wayne agrees. Fitness wise she has come on a lot since Bellewstown and she'll step up in class now no problem.

Curragh Sun, 21st Jul, 2024  Ephesus I'm delighted with him. He's a horse that stays very well and he'll stay further than a mile-and-a-half, he's genuine,. We'll look for a staying handicap, he'll have no problem going a mile-and-six.

Curragh Wed, 5th Jun, 2024  Grateful She's by Galileo and she has an unbelievable pedigree,. She got a little setback last year and we didn't get to run her. She just took a bit of time to come and Wayne said there is a lot to come from her. We'll let her step up and progress away and he said she'd be very happy to step back in trip. It's all positive.

Curragh Sun, 26th May, 2024  Chief Little Rock I’m delighted with him. He stays very well, is an honest horse and could go to Ascot or back here for the Irish Derby. He’d love going a mile and a half. We felt in Epsom it was just a bit of a dawdle for him.

Leopardstown Fri, 17th May, 2024  Kyprios We're delighted with him, he's a lovely horse. When he gets there he just waits but Ryan was very happy with him,. Ryan said he has plenty of speed left, all the speed is there, but he just pulls up when he gets there, he's just lazy. The plan was obviously the two runs and then go to Ascot, if everything is well with him then. It's amazing that he came back, it's great to have him back. He just has a lovely relaxed way of doing it.

Punchestown Tue, 30th Apr, 2024  Mystical Power Mystical Power showed resilience and toughness and he's been improving all season. I didn't think we had much chance at the second last and Mark said he was going as fast as he could coming around the last bend. The race turned into a staying race with the other two protagonists (Firefox and Slade Steel) playing their cards going to the last. They were flat out and then he just outstayed them with a good jump at the last. It's fantastic that he's progressed as the season has gone on and I think Annie Power is coming out in him. She showed plenty of ability but he didn't show any ability early. When he was a three-year-old he didn't show me much ability and at the end of his four-year-old year he started to show a little bit.

Navan Sat, 27th Apr, 2024  Kyprios Delighted with him this year, great to get him back. Ryan gave him a lovely, uncomplicated ride. Wayne (Lordan on Queenstown) set a lovely, even pace and he kept taking him. I couldn't be happier really. When he gets there he doesn't do much and that is the way he is, but he was travelling very easily all the way. Everything is good so far - the plan was to come here, go to Leopardstown (Saval Beg) and go to the Gold Cup. He is a lovely horse to have.

Cork Fri, 26th Apr, 2024  Bremen He was working very well and I was fancying him until the rain came, which wouldn't suit him, but I don't think the ground is as bad (officially 'soft') as what they are saying. His last two races were messy and he didn't get a clear run around but has always worked like a nice horse. He is not big at all but if they are fast enough, it doesn't matter what size they are. He did it very nicely today, is a decent horse and we will maybe run in Chester now - that'll tell us where we stand.
