Limerick Fri, 19th Apr, 2024  Rocky's Diamond I had been disappointed with a couple of my runners in the past few weeks but was happy with the way this fella worked during the week and told David (Kiely, owner) to have a few quid on him,. Shane gave him a great ride and he is a nice horse who jumps well. He is a half-brother to (six-time winner) The Little Yank, is a grand horse and we might send end up sending him to Doncaster (sales). His owner also had last year's champion point-to-pointer Rocky's Howya but he got a leg at the end of last year.

Cork Thu, 21st Mar, 2024  Mozzies Sister That was brilliant. We bought her from Ciaran and Liam Fennessy who I am friendly with and they recommended her. I rode in point to points with Ciaran for years and he told me to buy this one. We didn't have her long before her (second) point to point and I took a chance running her as it was local, but she bolted up. I knew when she was only 70% ready, that there was a lot more to come. I was hoping to come here for the point to point bumper on Easter Monday but we made a small change and were able to book Maxine. She might get an entry at Aintree or Punchestown, depending on what the syndicate think but she is decent. She is a lovely racehorse and I am mad about her. The owners (For The Love Of It Syndicate) are a good crew of farmers from west Waterford and they're thrilled to have a good one.
