Busy mum-to-be in winning Dash
She ran a blinder when third at Leopardstown last night. I was going to wait for Galway but I took her to the beach this morning and she was going crazy so I decided to run her.
Market so right about Sindjara
I've been waiting to run her since Guineas time. I've been waiting for good fast ground. That's the key to her. She'll go for another fillies handicap with the Connacht Oaks, a race I won last year at Sligo, a possibility. It can come up soft there though and that'll be ground dependent as I wouldn't run her on soft.
Jimtown in Down Royal surprise
Windsor Pride getting the hang of things
I've been wrong with this horse. I ran him over seven furlongs last time but the key to him is that he needs to learn to settle. You won't see the best of him until he goes over hurdles. He's already schooled and he's a right jumper. The syndicate are made up of half and half Dublin and Meath. Some are happier than others this week (following last Sunday's Leinster Senior Football Final).
