Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Bleu De Vassy (FR)

He's a nice horse and I'm delighted with him. He'll get further and he jumped great. I know he's run on heavy ground but for a big horse he probably appreciates it when it's not really soft. Jack said that ground is beautiful, it's riding well, and he was very happy with him. He'll step up to graded company now.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Helvic Dream (IRE)

Colin said he was going to sit a bit closer and have one go at him (Broome). He felt he went too soon for him the last day and he felt he did again today. He has an electrifying turn of speed but lasted it out. It was a brilliant ride. He’s been a pleasure to train and doesn’t take a lot of work. There have been plenty of people interesting in buying him but thankfully the owners have kept faith in me as I felt he could win a Group One. I’ve had a number of horses placed in Guineas, and a fourth in the Epsom Derby, but that is my first Group One. I can die happy now!. They are so easy to train compared to jumpers. I’m always joking with Flat trainers that they are getting away with murder. You don’t have to train Flat horses to stay or to jump and there is not nearly as many injuries. I’ve always said that Sheikh Mohammed should have sent Willie (Mullins) 200 horses years ago and got him out of the way!. I was afraid to even dream about it (winning a Group 1). I’m thrilled and it means a lot.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Mywayofthinkin (IRE)

That was grand, we were glad to see the bit of rain coming this morning. It's lovely ground and if the rain didn't come we may not have been running,. He had a hard enough race in both bumpers and it was the sensible thing to do (go hurdling). He'll be going back home to Martinstown shortly. He was a little bit deliberate and careful everywhere but professional over the last two when he was needed. He went to the line well and it was nice.

Quotes on Patter Merchant (IRE)

He's a nice horse, he's a horse to go jumping and you probably won't see much more of him this year. He's a horse for next year. Harry said he should have let him slide on, as he's just a galloper but we like him.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Royal Hollow (IRE)

She only had ten stone six (pounds) on her back and we thought, if she didn't throw it away, that she couldn't get beat. She's nearly won every race she's run in but she, not the jockeys, managed to throw them all away by being too keen. I ride her out at home and have been trying to teach her to do things right. She's learning, I think. Andy wanted her to make the running today and it was probably the day to do it with all the weight she was getting. I didn't see the sectionals yet, but I'd say she went a fair gallop and didn't get an easy lead anyway. She'll probably go back on the Flat next and stick to mares' company over hurdles. The aim is to get a bit of black-type with her.
