Quick brace for Donoghue at Kilbeggan
Unlikely success for Win Some Lose Some
It was probably a weak race but it was grand to get a win with him. Mark said the better ground probably helped him and he picked up the pieces.
Walsh doubles up for McManus at Kilbeggan
He’d a nice run the first day and he’s improved from it, . He probably doesn’t kill himself at home. He’s a big baby and has improved from a nice first run. He didn’t seem to mind the ground and we’ll dream on. We’ll have a chat and make a plan.
Bardenstown Lad completes 467/1 treble for Donoghue in feature
We’re very surprised. His last couple of runs over fences he didn’t want to know about it and he had no race the other day in Tipperary as he made no effort at all. He just doesn’t seem to enjoy chasing. He was entered in Doncaster (Sales) next week but I’d say there might be a change of plan. I’ve no idea where he’ll go next but that’s a nice prize to get.
O'Keeffe shines on Nolan's Jasmin De Cotte
On his first run over fences he was entitled to win. He jumped well and it helped having the rail after the last. He’s a young horse and is definitely better over a fence and the penny is dropping with him. He was too free over hurdles and I’d say the further he goes will be an advantage. . Hopefully we’ll keep him on the go for the summer.
Great evening for the Callaghans at Kilbeggan
In fairness to Donagh he gave him a super ride. He made a bad mistake and crept his way back into it. I was worried that we wouldn’t catch the horse in front but he’s battled on well after the last. He was in great form and had a good run in Punchestown where he ran on well from the last and we thought back in grade this evening would suit him. It’s been a great day. That’s my first double in Ireland. I had a double before in England.
