Ruby Walsh's midas touch continued at Limerick today when the Champion Jockey partnered a double to bring his weekend tally to six winners. Sun 12th Oct
I wasn't expecting that but every time you just start to lose faith in him he keeps coming back. He's been a brilliant servant for the boys (Total Recall Racing Club) and I don't know what we will do to replace him when the time comes. He will go to Galway although I'm not sure exactly for what race. The big amateur handicap is a possible, and there is also a 0-80 rated two-mile handicap.
Adrian McGuinness
his owners (the Total Recall Racing Club) are a great bunch of lads and he has been a great servant for them. I was a bit disappointed at Leopardstown the last day but the plan was always to come here. He'll keep mixing it with the Flat and may go back over fences and could go for the Glaway Plate this year. Some of the Premier Handicaps on the Flat could also be on his agenda.
Adrian McGuinness
Barry (Geraghty) pulled him up the other day in Galway as he never travelled on the ground. We couldn't find anything wrong with him,. He always has a bit of mucus and never scopes clean. He grubbed up after and I have to thank Barry as he didn't give him a hard race. He was sweet after the race so we decided to run here. He was dropping in grade. He's in again at Sligo on Wednesday and Leopardstown on Thursday and could run at either one if he's ok. He stays well and I told Keith to stretch them across the top. He gave him a super ride.
Adrian McGuinness
Its a long time since he has seen the No 1 spot but he has been very consistent. His owners wanted to sell him but we convinced them against it. He has been a great servant. Galway will be his aim now and will probably go for a flat handicap early in the week before going for a two and a half mile handicap hurdle at the weekend. He is a tough sort.
Adrian McGuinness
The conditions of the race really suited him and that's why we came here. He had a hard race at Galway but he ate up well after it and has been in great form at home. He has now won a Flat Race, Hurdle and Chase in three weeks. We'll head for a two mile and one furlong Chase at Galway at the end of the month. The long term plan would be to try win a Graded Chase before the Winter ground gets too heavy.
Adrian McGuinness
Galway is the plan, for the amateur handicap on the Monday and he could run again on the Thursday in the two mile one furlong novice chase.
Adrian McGuinness
He's been very consistent and ran well behind Sizing Europe early last season. We decided to keep him a novice for this season, and he'll be campaigned with Galway in mind,. said McGuinness. He also has a nice mark on the Flat, and will mix it over the summer. I must also congratulate Limerick on the condition of the track today. The ground is in excellent shape.
Adrian McGuinness
Beau Michael had the cob-webs taken off him in a Flat handicap at Navan on Wednesday and was a lot sharper today.
