Wexford Wed, 29th May, 2024  Feet Of A Dancer She likes it around here. She's a little mare we think a lot of,. She handles that sort of ground so I wouldn't like to risk her on quick ground but she's a versatile little lady. Possible the further up in trip she goes the better she'll be. I think that she'll stay well as she's by Authorized. She's a mare that we like and hopefully she'll go on to do better things. She got a little bit of a setback after Leopardstown the last day so we decided when she got over that we'd bring her back to try and win again with her. She's done that so we'll make a plan now and see where we go from here. She's only five so we'll try and mind her.

Tipperary Thu, 9th May, 2024  Jasmine D'airy She was a bit keen in her two point-to-points on soft or heavy ground but I'd say she is more of a two-mile mare. She will end up being a fairly good filly I'd say. Tom (Howley junior) and Timmy Hyde own her together and if she is kept, she will go for a winners' bumper but I'd say she will be sold.

Aintree Sat, 13th Apr, 2024  I Am Maximus It was an excellent ride. I had said before the race that we didn’t know how good this horse was, today he showed that he’s better than he had been. I thought he still had a little bit from the handicapper after the Bobbyjo and he’s proved it today. Paul was excellent, he kidded him round the inside, he got chopped up a couple of times and probably didn’t jump as clean as he could, but he was looking for the gaps and when he eventually got it he was all right. I could see Paul’s body language and he was happy, so I was happy then. I don’t think I said anything until he got over the last and then I let go (and gave him a cheer). He’s a tremendous horse. He has his own way of doing things, he’s quirky and immature but he’s learning all the time. It’s extraordinary how we came to have him. Nicky Henderson had him before me, Michael Grech moved his horses to Ireland and Nicky said to me ‘make sure you get him’ and it was fine advice. Nicky could see the talent that he had and we just had to nurture it, so thanks to Nicky and also Henrietta Knight who organised all that. To win an Irish National and an English National is impressive. I think he could be a Gold Cup horse, but we don’t know how good he could be because he doesn’t do it at home. He’s quirky, but he has huge ability and until others get the better of him, we won’t know how good he is.

Fairyhouse Mon, 1st Apr, 2024  Implicit The pilot was very good again, as he usually is. It looked like they went very hard, Paul dropped her in got her relaxed and came with one run. Obviously he just got there and I thought it was a brilliant ride. I don’t know what way it would have gone if the horse didn’t run out, but she’s improving. I’d imagine she’ll go to Punchestown and you’ll probably see her through the summer as well, she should go on better ground. David Casey, representing

Fairyhouse Sat, 24th Feb, 2024  I Am Maximus I thought it was a magnificent performance considering how badly he jumped going away from the stands. He just missed one or two there and Jody (McGarvey) left him alone and let him find his own feet. When he got half down the back, and around the fifth last, once he saw the stands I think he just clicked into a another gear. I don't know how good he is, but he's certainly improving with every run. However, he does love Fairyhouse and maybe this is his track, he certainly has an engine. It's very hard to quicken in this ground, he has a big engine in there. I'd imagine he goes for the Grand National, he would look a Gold Cup horse in time but I'd imagine Aintree is his objective. I'm not worried about ground for him. I don't know how good he is yet because he just keeps improving.

Leopardstown Sun, 4th Feb, 2024  Brucio I thought JJ had her in a great position and she jumped very well for a lightly raced mare. There were a couple of hares in front and luckily they have just gone a bit too hard. She’s won well in the end. She’s been steadily improving and won in Catterick the last day which was a good piece of race selection by Anthony (Bromley). We are in a different ball game today, but it has given her a bit of confidence. She has a wee touch of class about her, and it couldn’t have gone any better on the day. We have plenty of options now and we could think about the mares’ novice in Cheltenham or a good handicap somewhere. I was a wee bit worried about the ground today and I think she will handle nicer ground.
