Leopardstown Sat, 3rd Feb, 2024  Kargese A big part of that(success) is riding for the team I am. Again, there, Plan A was to make the running but that was out the window by the time I got around the first bend. I'd say Willie was watching me coming across the top wondering was the alarm clock going to go off!

Leopardstown Sat, 3rd Feb, 2024  Kargese She was too keen with Danny at Christmas,. The plan today was to make the running and it just shows you that we don’t even know what we’re doing at this stage!. Next thing, Mark (Walsh) jumped out and made the running, his horse was galloping and Danny settled the filly in. She was much more settled today after blowing away the cobwebs at Christmas. Mark was very happy with Majborough and thinks he’ll improve for that run. He gallops and jumps and he’s more of a chaser to look at. Paul felt that Storm Heart probably got stuck in the ground and was a bit keen with him as well. I was delighted with the way Bunting stayed on from behind, he was doing his best work at the end and is improving as well. They all ran well today and have booked their tickets for the Triumph. It’s going to be hard to beat Nicky Henderson’s horse, Sir Gino. We have our work cut out with him.

Cork Sat, 6th Jan, 2024  D Art D Art We dropped him in at Naas, but he got crowded and, with more light today, jumped savage and was deadly. . Ricky Doyle schooled him over hurdles before he ran at Naas and said he never saw a horse go from 'A to B' as quick. . Sean (Flanagan, on Will Wilde) took him on early doors today and while he was gaining on the flat, my fella was gaining over the jumps. He was low and quick. His form is on heavy, but yielding ground shouldn't inconvenience him. I didn't think beyond today and it is hard to know where to go now.
