After race at Dundalk Fri, 17th Oct, 2014 (1st)

She's unbelievably genuine and the 10lb is obviously a big help. Conor gave her a lovely ride. She'll come back here for the Listed Cooley Stakes. She's Listed placed already. She loves it around here and has had a wonderful week. I'm delighted for Conor. She is a lovely ride. She settles and does everything right and gives the young lads a chance to concentrate on what they should be doing. I'm delighted for Carol Roper. When I suggest a rider for her it's never a problem and it's great to have a filly like her to get the lads going.

Conor is a grand young lad but he's heavy and I'd say he'll end up going jumping. He's a naturally good horseman and I'm delighted to be able to give him a winner,.

After race at Fairyhouse Wed, 11th Jun, 2014 (1st)

She is as game and consistent as they come and I felt a reproduction of her Naas run would leave her hard to beat. There was no pace and Shane felt he had no choice but to sit in front. Banna Boirche won the race last year the same way and he had never made the running in his life before.

After race at Naas Mon, 3rd Jun, 2013 (1st)

We'll keep going with her. There's a big fillies handicap on Derby weekend. We have Ondeafears for that too. My horses are in good form. She was never travelling and never going. Michael (Hussey) said she was very flat. We'll get her checked out.

M Halford

After race at Curragh Mon, 6th May, 2013 (1st)

She's as genuine as they come,. Herself and Ondeafears are out of half-sisters. Carol (Roper) bred them all and has great patience with them. She's tough and genuine and it's lovely to win one at the Curragh with her. That seems to be her trip. Seven is a good trip.

.The dam won first time out as a four-year-old at the Curragh and it's a family that seems to get better with time,.
