Quotes on Exquisite Acclaim (IRE)

the boys have good fun with Exquisite Acclaim and fair play to Tom O'Connor. He has horses with Henry (De Bromhead) as well and it's great to get a winner for them. I think his mother isn't well so that will be a bit of a tonic for him and I wish her well. he battled well, I think the horse on the inside (Bellaphina) helped him along and he's a tough ole soul. We were going to go to Leopardstown but I thought this track, a front-runners track, would suit him well and the horse needs fast ground. Adam know him well.

Quotes on Formal Display (GB)

we would like to have got that maiden win out of him before now but he got sore shins after we ran him so we had to let him mature. He likes good ground and has really appreciated that surface. He gets the mile and probably a bit further next year. We’ve always liked him and he’s one to look forward to next year. He has a lovely pedigree. The first two have pulled well clear of the third and I’d say they are two nice horses.

Quotes on Power Mode (USA)

I had four winners the first month I started, but then I had a disaster as the whole thing stopped. We got all these new horses which brought viruses from the sales, and this and that. I'm delighted for Gay and Annette (O'Callaghan, owners) as they had Capital Guarantee with me last year when I was based with (trainer) Kieran Cotter but when we sold him to England, he won three in a row. He was just ready, after castration, and came back and did well. Colin (Keane) carried this horse but he was tough too. I told him that we were really happy with him and I'm so happy to have this winner. Colin said we could pull him back to five (furlongs) and I agree with him.

Quotes on Procrastinate (GB)

I was hoping he’d run a nice race coming here. He’s a horse that we’ve liked and didn’t run last year. Delighted that he was able to do that on debut. We came here knowing that he’d be fit, but wouldn’t be sharp. I’m happy the way he travelled through the race and picked up. Hopefully there will be plenty of improvement to come when the penny drops. I didn’t envisage him being out the first day, but he’d been training well in the spring. I think he’ll be fairly versatile ground wise. I thought that he’d handle that ground without wanting it. If I can find a winners’ race that would be nice and, if not, he may have to run in something like the Tetrarch. I think he’ll get a mile.

Quotes on Elinor Dashwood (IRE)

That was very good, she had come down a few pounds,. She was very free in Naas and I decided to put her asleep in the Curragh the last day. We learned a lot from her there over six, the way she came home. I said to Ronny today to put her asleep again today and ride her cold, which he did and she relaxed really well and looks a million dollars. She quickened twice, she quickened to get to them and quickened to go away from them. It was a class ride. The step up helped her, she relaxed a lot today. The Curragh can sometimes light a horse up as it's vast and open but she relaxed really well today. She'll get further and she might go for the big fillies handicap in the Curragh, if not we could look at Galway. She'll be well able to get the hill in Galway. We've plenty to look forward to.
