Gowran Park Tue, 18th Oct, 2022  Drummin Life I'm delighted to get her to win. I probably ran in the wrong race the last day down in Thurles, she did nothing wrong. Billy gave her a lovely ride. It's the first foal out of the mare (Enjoy Life), who I trained for Frank (Fahy). She got injured after finishing second for me, so I'm delighted this filly has won for the Fahys. That's her for the year now. She's a grand filly and Billy said she was just idling there in front, she did everything lovely. Billy said she'll go on any ground and that she'd come on a ton from that again. I was a bit worried in the parade ring as that was the lightest she looked all year, so it's good that she's going on a break now.

Listowel Thu, 22nd Sep, 2022  Blues Emperor He is a horse, has done nothing only improve. He ran well on debut in Dundalk but picked up a few niggles through the year. He ran very well at Cork the last day, when I thought he might have needed the run. He was in a little pocket but is very genuine and tires his hardest. It is great to win another maiden, which is what it's all about, and we'll probably give him one more run this year. I'm delighted for the owners Helen and Mark Keaveney who are lovely people and I rode for them when I was with John Oxx. They bred him and are racing fans, so will be keen to run him again next year.
