Reports in which Laughing Boy (IRE) was mentioned

Fosters Cross starts busy summer in style

Fosters Cross smoothly picked off Laughing Boy a furlong and a half out and the veteran 11-year-old forged on to win by two and a half lengths at 3/1 in the Leopardstown Club Members Handicap. Thu 11th Jul

Boy has local owners Laughing

Ruby Walsh expressed fears beforehand about Laughing Boy's willingness for the job and he was sent off the uneasy market leader for the M.J. Carroll Arro Maiden Hurdle at Listowel. He looked a forlorn hope three out but as the pace-setters floundered the Montjeu gelding came home strongest to prevail. Sat 18th Sep

Linehan shows cool head on Boy

Eddie Linehan lost his 10lb claim when giving Laughing Boy a confident ride in the 1m4f handicap at Fairyhouse. Wed 02nd Jun

After race at Listowel Sat, 18th Sep, 2010 (1st)

He is by Montjeu and we picked him up fairly cheaply at Newmarket Sales. He looks a progressive type and he has now won on the flat and today for us. He won't be one for winter ground, he doesn't even like wet weather and when the ground softens up he could be a Dundalk horse. He has plenty of gears. That ground was a bit dead for him though and it's nice to win for the owners (the Nearly There Syndicate) who are from Listowel.
