After race at Thurles Wed, 27th Jan, 2021 (1st)

She is a lovely filly and I suppose we got the tactics wrong at Limerick but that is behind us,. She is entered in the big mares' handicap at Leopardstown and we need a couple to come out but that is the plan.

Eoin Christopher McCarthy

After race at Limerick Tue, 17th Nov, 2020 (1st)

She had a lovely run behind Our Roxanne on heavy ground at Gowran last year and John Joe (Walsh, her previous trainer) had a great job done with her,. She idled and had a look at the last but I wasn't too worried. . These are lovely races for these kind of horses and she looks to be a lovely filly and we're delighted with her. John Leahy, from Listowel, owns her and it's his first horse with us so hopefully he'll be lucky.
