Congo made to work in Dundalk opener

Highway swoops to land gamble

McMonagle grabs quick double on Coviglia

He's a great horse, he's consistent and runs his race all the time. He loves it here, he won here back in March. He ran a bad race the next day and we gave him a wee break and he's been in the prize money every time he's run since. Dylan is a great young fella. He comes out of the stalls slow, it's a fault he has, but he got there in the end. He'll probably keep on the going but I don't like to run him too often, maybe every three or four weeks.

Girl strikes again for McGuinness

He gave her a great ride because we were drawn wide enough. I told him to jump out and get the best possible position and tighten up around the bend. That's exactly what he did and he didn't panic up the straight. The horse was there to take him where he wanted to go which was a big help. She's improved and we'll probably have a shot at a bigger handicap here later on, either over six or seven. She loves the surface, she likes a good solid surface. She's an easy filly to train, we haven't murdered her since she ran. She was third on the beach last week and she enjoyed that day as well. We'll keep going with her and the handicapper will soon tell us when she's going to stop!. She's a fun filly and we'll have a bit of craic with her.

Joupe gets up to land another gamble at Dundalk

It's was her first time over this trip but she's very genuine and I knew she'd stay. I might even step her up again,. She was picking up the pieces there at the end. This is her home really. She had two runs on the turf to sharpen her up for here. We'll keep coming back here. She got a 7lb rise for finishing seventh here on her last run which I thought was a bit much at the time but we're after winning again now. I'm delighted with that and we'll come back here in a fortnight. We'll see what the handicapper gives her this time. Dan gave her a fantastic ride. He settled her out the back and we ride her the same way all the time, come with a run around the outside. All I told him was to come with a clear run and what ever happens happens.

Travels stays on stoutly to give O'Brien and Lordan double

Pulchrac picks up win in finale

She was due that. She's been knocking on the door but things just haven't gone her way,. It's great to get a bracket into her for the man that owns her. She ran well at Navan last time but things just didn't suit, it wasn't anyone's fault.
