After race at Navan Mon, 14th Dec, 2015 (1st)

She's not a bad mare. She wasn't right in Galway and is only after coming right in the last fortnight. There is a bit of improvement in her. She wants that two-and-a-half. I don't think she'd come back in trip and if anything she would go further. Bryan said it was a messy old race. They went no gallop and there were horses in on top of her. When she did run at the last at speed she winged it. I wanted to get her settled today as she was a bit keen in Galway.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Fairyhouse Sat, 31st Jan, 2015 (1st)

I think she's a nice mare and I'll have to chat to Eddie and Michael (O'Leary, of owners Gigginstown House Stud) but if it doesn't come up too quick she's definitely a mare for Punchestown or Aintree (bumpers).
