it's great to get a winner for Dave as well - he said if she handled the ground, he could see her running a decent race. She travelled and jumped well which was a big help on that ground.

If you run beyond tomorrow, you can't run in point-to-points at all. I had decided if she didn't run well, we would go that route and then we would go back to the track again. The last day Darragh said she just choked a wee bit, she's a very tense mare. He said to put a tongue tie on her just to help her a wee bit. He rode her slightly wide of everything else and she jumped and travelled everywhere. When she got to the bottom of the hill, I knew she would come up the hill as she stays well. In fairness to her, she has grown. She was a very small mare when we got her and she has grown into a nice mare. She has been weak all along and she is only just starting to come to herself now. She's tough. My biggest problem with her has been her weakness but she has been thriving and thriving. Just in the last two months you can see her turning into a mare. Her outlook was improving. Before she was only a shell. Darragh was just saying when he came in 'that's the point-to-point route finished!'. We've always talked about her enjoying a cut in the ground but she really enjoyed that today. I don't think it is the ground, I think it is strength now and she is learning and starting to relax. She jumps a fence well too so we have a few options.
