Reports in which Ben Swift (IRE) was mentioned

Carey/Slevin score at Downpatrick

Wexford trainer Shay Slevin made the long journey up worthwhile when winning The Race On Baileys Maiden Hurdle with Ben Swift in the hands of Sonny Carey. Sun 14th Jun

After race at Downpatrick Sun, 14th Jun, 2009 (1st)

This place has been a lucky track for me. This lad has been running consistent enough and thought he would have a chance today. I think he'd stay the 3 miles and we might go for a novice hurdle next.
