After race at Punchestown Sun, 20th Nov, 2022 (1st) 
That's mighty, it's the best win she ever had. We knew that she was in great form,. She has to be out in front, if she's in behind she doesn't want to know anything about it. I've milking cows all my life and I've always had love for horses. Since I was a child I loved horses and I'm lucky to have a good mare like her. Her mother was a great mare but she's every bit as good as her and I'm wicked lucky to have her. It was great to be able to come up today and run in a Grade 2, for me to breed her and train her at home. I ride her out every morning. She's a great mare to eat and we don't be too hard on her. When she's fit, she's fit.

I'm over the moon,. She is a fine mare and I knew there was a good one in her and she was third in this race last year. We were hoping the ground would suit her today and she was lame a week before her second-last race. She was perfect today and was at home on that ground.

A beginners' chase is what I have in mind for her now, but we just wanted to try and win a maiden hurdle with her first,. I was a small bit worried coming here with the opposition she was facing. That was a good run she had in Listowel though, and she should be a good chaser as she’s already won a point-to-point.
