Release The Beast wins readily on debut
The Connolly's RED MILLS Irish EBF Auction Maiden Hurdle was won by well-supported newcomer Release The Beast. Sat 28th Oct

He was a big baby last year and I know he the maiden hurdle he won last year wasn't a great race but he disappointed us afterwards. We loved him but I'd say he just wasn't able for what we were doing with him,. He has been a different horse since he came back in and had a lovely run the first day back. He has learned to settle and jump but today's race was only a restricted novice so we'll see where he goes from here. He is definitely a nice horse though, loves that ground and I'm delighted for the owners who are great supporters of the yard. Getting a winner on the first day over Christmas lifts the pressure so this is super.

I honestly didn't give him that much of a chance. I was hoping he'd run respectably,. He had a good run the last day. Jim was the one you wanted to come here and he was dead right so we're very happy. Sean said he tends to go a little bit right so he jumped off on the inside but then he moved to the outside because he seemed to be happier out there. I thought he was very good over the last few fences and that's what sealed it for him. I thought he'd win jumping the last but then they sort of quickened again a little bit and he barely got up. Thankfully he was on the right side of the nod. We had a nice winner in Limerick in Release The Beast. He did it very nicely and I'd say he's a nice young horse, he looks to be better over a fence. He's owned by the same sort of men so they are all delighted.

We bought him off Harley Dunne after seeing him do a piece of work so fair play to Harley and he has never disappointed us one day. We were just dreading if he might be flashy but Sean was very pleased with him. At the end of the day the second-favourite unseated at the first which turned it into a 0-97 rated race so it is impossible to assess. Sean said the same but said he couldn't have won easier. All I can say is we are excited by him, however much depth there was to that race.
