Fri 26th Dec
3:40pm There's the the usual eccentricity to this event with the 2009 and 2010 winners renewing rivalries. Shin A Vee won in 2009 but was narrowly beaten by COOL WARRIOR the following year and, while Derek O'Connor is a notable booking, Shin A Vee has been absent for 772 days and is now passed over. Preference is for 12 year old COOL WARRIOR, who at least has proven fitness on his side. The other 14 runners have mustered just 10 point to points wins between them and finding a form alternative to either of the two previous winners is difficult. Ten year old Norwich Flyer has three point to point wins to his name though and may play a prominent roll while Enniskillen, who worringly is still a maiden point to pointer, ran ok in the Ladies Cup on Tuesday and has minor claims. The Begrudger is a dual point to point winner a long time ago but hasn't shown anything worth mentioning recently. (TW)

Thu 04th Apr
With the favourite, Shinrock Paddy (pulled-up, clinically abnormal post-race) under-performing in a major way, the Bet with the Tote Beginners Chase at Down Royal was rendered a fairly open affair.

He did it well. I was hoping he would improve on the better ground. That is the first time since last May that he has got good ground. Despite what everyone else thought, I never thought he was a heavy ground horse.
Daniel Miley
After race at
Gowran Park Sun, 6th May, 2012 (1st)
He has been an unlucky horse. It took him a while to settle in his races and he was boiling over a bit at the start of the season. We can ride him up with the bunch now. That will do him now and we will bring him back to go chasing next year.
Daniel Miley
After race at
Navan Sat, 19th Dec, 2009 (1st)
We knew he'd go on the ground and we were just hoping after that. He is largely unfurnished and I thought he was a bit weak. He is from a strong family though and his full-brother (Frisco Depot) was second in a bumper for Dessie Hughes.
