I'm delighted for the old horse, he's a real stalwart and everybody probably knows him in Irish racing. He's been unlucky in Dundalk and at Bellewstown and I'm delighted he's got off the mark for us. We needed that badly as we've been over 400 days since our last winner. We've had a number of seconds and we've had a bad run recently with horses getting injured. He's in on Friday night at Dundalk and we'll let him roll. The owner is local as well, Sean Gallagher, so that's great. Seamie has rode for us for years and I'm delighted to get a winner with him again.

I suppose I don’t want this year to end. I’d be about the only one who wouldn’t be giving out about 2020!. This fella is a real star in the yard when he gets into his grade. He surprised me as he did that quite easily and is in great form. He takes very little work at home, and I’m delighted for Sean Gallagher who is a long-standing supporter of mine and it’s great for him to get another winner. He ran over five here the last night and was run of his feet. Colin (Keane) rode him and said they went hard because for him to be taken off his feet they have to go very fast.

He’s a great old horse to have and always rocks up once or twice every year. I’m delighted for Sean Gallagher who is a loyal supporter of mine. He was drawn 14 and I thought he was in trouble as he’s a horse that likes to dictate but you can understand why Colin could be champion jockey this year. He got three lengths as soon as he jumped the gates and that’s down to Colin which was the winning and losing of the race. I put a visor on him tonight and we just changed a few things around but I knew he was on song going out there. We’ll just try to keep him right and happy.

it was great. He got 4lb for being second here last time and I thought for a horse in that type of grade he might be in trouble. Conor gave him a great positive ride. I just told him to jump out, I knew Ty Rock Brandy was drawn low and she can dominate, so I told him to go to the front and let him go hard. That's exactly what he did and he said got a breather into him before he turned in. He's a tough horse. He's a great fun horse. He belongs to Sean Gallagher and it's great to get another winner for him. Hopefully the handicapper won't be too hard on him.

He's slipped down the weights. Even though he went in the muck there he's better on a sound surface so I'm looking forward to him in Dundalk,. He should get another one or two hopefully. The handicapper isn't going to kill him. It's very testing out there, most of those horses need good ground out there and it's just who is lucky, gets to the front and gets through it. Colin was to ride him but I took him off and put him on Ken's Sam's because she had the inside draw and it was good ground at the time. It was great to get a win for Sean Gallagher who is a long standing patron of mine. It's great to get his name on the board.

Listowel Mon, 10th Sep, 2018 (1st)
We were drawn 14 and I didn't think he'd be able to get to the front but I left it up to Dusty (Shane Foley) and he gave him an excellent ride. The only chance on that type of ground is to be handy and he jumps very very smart so I said not to disappoint him. I didn't think he'd handle the ground but he did and the start was a huge factor and he gave him a serious ride. That's Sean Gallagher's first winner at Listowel so it's great to get that for him as he has been touched off here a few times in the past. We always thought he was an out-and-out sprinter but he is a funny horse who is now coming to himself and for a low-grade handicapper, he has 34,000 euro earned in place prize-money alone (and 57,500 euro in total prizemoney).

I'm delighted for Sean Gallagher (not the presidential candidate of the same name) who loves to get a winner here. He's a local man and one of my biggest owners,.

He was overdue a win. He has been running very consistently even up in Dundalk. He loves quick ground. We'll tip away with him. This is Sean's (Gallagher, owner) local track and he loves getting a winner here so it's great for him. Hopefully the handicapper won't be too hard on him. When we got him first we thought he was a miler. He's very fast and it was really only when we saw his speed that we started dropping him back. A stiff five or six is what he really wants. When he runs in sprints he gets very hot so it's hard to get him to settle over longer trips.
