Billboa completes hat-trick for Browne
He keeps getting better!. He's kind of ground dependent. I tried him on turf before, but I was running him on soft ground and he wants good ground. We might look at something there in Newcastle (All Weather Finals Day), maybe there would be something there for him. He might not be highly rated enough.

Murphy eyes Lingfield for Walhaan
To be honest, if it was the day before over hurdles (sixth in Leopardstown), we really fancied him. The rain came that night and just spoiled our chances but he ran a cracker. We put him away after that and said we would have one run. We hope to go to Lingfield on Good Friday with him now, that's the plan if he gets in. This was a pipe-opener for that.

Feature on the market after Dundalk win
She loves the track and she is for sale. She would love the all-weathers in England, the likes of Wolverhampton or Kempton. There isn't enough of them (all-weather races) over here and she would race all year, she is hardy as anything. A great little back page as well, a good pedigree.

Marnane eyes stakes race with Jakajaro after winning return
He's a very good rider, obviously, and he's a great team player. This horse was gelded last year. He had run some fabulous races and he has a lot of speed and is a very good horse. He travels very easy and doesn't do a lot when he gets there. You could see that today halfway up the straight. There's no doubt he had a good juvenile campaign and ended up with a 93 rating - he was 93 doing a few things wrong. There's a nice Group 3 in Ascot in early May for him and there's a (Listed) race in Navan for him. We'll pick our spot and have a think about it.
