Much to mull over as Boy has the final say

She Be Fine sure is that

It was something of a case of more of the same in race two at Wexford with a Gigginstown House Stud-owned favourite defeated as another mare down near the bottom of the card, in this case She Be Fine prevailed in the Hen & Stag Parties At Wexford Racecourse Maiden Hurdle. Wed 18th Jun

After race at Cork Sun, 16th Apr, 2017 (1st)

It's been a lucky place to come for him and that's two wins from two runs here. He is good and we have him as a sport horse. We'll see what way the ground is but could give him another couple of runs over hurdles before eventually going chasing.

G Murphy

After race at Cork Sat, 7th Jan, 2017 (1st)

We were unlucky the last day he ran over hurdles when the saddle slipped on him and then he had a problem and has been off ever since,. He had only one problem but thank god we've that sorted out and it took us that long to sort him out. He's a tough old cookie and when he was asked, he fought back well. We expected a big run today, amongst ourselves. We have seven horses and do it for a bit of sport. We'll wait and see how he is tomorrow before making plans.
