Quotes on Luckinthecity (GB)
I probably should have a few more, but the aim is to get to 1,000 so I have a more years to go,. We have had a huge amount of summer bumper fillies in this year and obviously with Jamie (Codd) taking the summer off it is a big help.

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.

Quotes on Lightkeeper (IRE)
He takes a bit of winding up. I got a big jump at the second last which probably left me there too soon but he winged the last and galloped to the line. The Barstool Prophets Syndicate includes my father and a bunch of friends from Summerhill and the surrounding area. I trained my first winner in Ireland for the same Syndicate many moons ago and they have been with me ever since so it’s great to train a winner for them at Galway. He was a bit disappointing so to win in Galway today is great for them and he might be a big chaser down the road.

He's a nice horse. We knew he'd improved, he's improving the whole time, and I'd say he's a proper horse. We won't do too much more this year, maybe go to Naas (for a winners bumper on February 25th). We've all the options for him, he looks very good. I wouldn't be thinking of going to Cheltenham.

Quotes on Uncle Pat (IRE)
I think he was quite green in front. I think he was always doing enough. Those Well Chosens are always very laid-back and I think they keep their best for the racecourse. They do their best under pressure. Myself and the second horse, I don't remember pulling up that far down the track afterwards. It is good ground and he is a horse that will stay further. We will probably go over hurdles with him.

Quotes on Rocky's Diamond (IRE)
He is only a four-year-old so to beat those older horses was good and he hit the line strong, having been ridden out the back. David Kiely is a good loyal supporter of ours and has (prolific point-to-point winner) Rocky's Howya back on again this year so we're looking to him as well. this is the first horse I've had by him and being clear-winded and a beautiful mover, I wouldn't rule out buying another one by him.

Quotes on Jumping Susie (IRE)
In fairness to her she's been very consistent. She's just learned how to win this year, so that's good,. He gave her a great ride, he stacked them up and just gradually wound it up. I'd say that's her minimum trip, especially around here. She's a nice mare and she'll jump a fence, she jumped very well. There is more to look forward to, hopefully. She was too brave the last day and you can still see she was pretty brave there. She probably learned a little bit. She looks like she'll jump a fence the way she jumps hurdles and she could be even better over fences hopefully.

Quotes on Paggane (GB)
I think the longer trip brought about improvement in her. Hopefully she will continue to improve into the spring and her jumping is improving too. Maybe we could look at a novice handicap for her.

Quotes on Born Bright (IRE)
I'm just so appreciative for these types of races for small trainers. I knew there was a bit of negative press about them but for the likes of me it really gives us a chance not to be competing with the Man Utds and Man Citys of this world when it comes to racing,. She won a point-to-point and my son got to ride her in a few bumpers but she wants good ground and it went soft in Sligo and Listowel. This was a race that really suited and it was local. She'll run away over hurdles now. She's home-bred, her sister Born Famous won six in Scotland and got black-type and Born Braver won two for Gavin Cromwell. She's the third one and we've a few more fillies at home so we're delighted.

Quotes on Cast A Spell (IRE)
She is a tough filly and while the trip was short for her today, the ground helped. She has been consistent and if the handicapper isn't too hard on her, she might win a handicap. Hopefully now she'll be a nice mare over hurdles during the winter. Her owner Alan Jamieson is brilliant and is a fabulous owner, so it is unfortunate he couldn't be here today. Alan is a Geordie but is based south of London and it is brilliant to train a winner for him.
