Three Bells gains most deserved win

With two of his rivals 'springing' in the market, connections and backers of Three Bells would have be forgiven for going 'watery' before the La Bucca Restaurants Handicap at Fairyhouse.

After race at Down Royal Fri, 22nd Jul, 2016 (1st)

that’s job done! He's as tough as boots and that's seven wins in different tracks and eight in total. He's not a nice horse to train but he's a lovely horse to race and we’re delighted! . The plan was Wednesday (in Naas) and today was just a bonus. I couldn't leave it (the race) even though he was 1lb wrong (at the weights).

Patrick Downey

After race at Naas Wed, 20th Jul, 2016 (1st)

He always comes this time of year, and he's really taken up the last few days. He's been disappointing when the few I've ran have run well. He's in over seven furlongs at Down Royal, and I'd say he'll definitely run. He ran in Galway once and will not go there.

Patrick Downey

After race at Navan Sat, 5th Sep, 2015 (1st)

I've have seconds and thirds here but that's my first winner at Navan, which is my local track. I've just kissed the ground as I've always said I do it when I got a winner here!. he just keeps improving and is as honest as the day is long. He got left at the start the last time he was here and still finished second and I really fancied him today, as this course suits and the trip is ideal. We'll go to Listowel now as the boys (Bells Syndicate) want a three-day holiday!

Patrick Downey

After race at Leopardstown Thu, 13th Aug, 2015 (1st)

I was disappointed with him at the Curragh on Sunday (finished eighth). He just never travelled, and I think they didn't go fast enough,.

Patrick Downey

After race at Sligo Tue, 17th Jun, 2014 (1st)

The horses haven't been running well for some time, but he had come down the handicap and if the handicapper is half decent to him he might just get another one. I did fancy him big time today. He's like the trainer, he's as honest as the day is long!

Patrick Downey

After race at Bellewstown Wed, 21st Aug, 2013 (1st)

Fairyhouse, Bellewstown and Navan are the three for him. The plan is to go to Listowel next, then I'd love to go to Navan with him. When he comes to the races he doesn't behave but he is brilliant at home and I can't thank the stall handlers enough today (needed to be blindfolded going into the stalls). I thought the ground might be a bit lively for him but he got a lead the whole way and he is improving and improving.

Patrick Downey

After race at Fairyhouse Wed, 3rd Jul, 2013 (1st)

Limerick was a disaster (an unlucky third when gambled-on). Last year he was real weak. We'll see now if we can find another one . maybe at Galway. We made use of the draw tonight which we didn't do at Limerick. That's what we should have done there,.
