Grassick's Amanirenas lands the claimer
Another Sheehy on the scoresheet at Bellewstown
Blackcastle Storms home much to McDonogh's chagrin
Yefimenko another for Lyons and Keane
She was entitled to do that after her run in the Curragh. We picked this race out straight away after the Curragh because she's so quick out of the stalls, and the race fitted in and was made for her. She deserved to do it on the Curragh run and she did it well. You'd have to look at bigger targets with her, good sprints. That will be her game and we'll be working our way up.
Disco Dancer in the groove under Ewing
Comic Book cheers the layers
The step up in trip really suited and I'm delighted with that. She stayed every yard and she really showed guts and determination towards the end. We always thought a lot of her and we had no extremes in ground today. Probably the two times she ran in Leopardstown was a bit too quick for her. It is beautiful ground there today and fair play to the team at Bellewstown who do an absolutely fantastic job. She's a lovely filly and I hope we keep progressing forward. We put her in a Stakes race in France during the week. She could take her chance in that. She is a gorgeous filly and has a beautiful pedigree. It is great to get one on the board for Zhang Yuesheng.
Second time lucky on 'The Hill' for Macinamillion
Leonard takes the last on Building Bridges
He's a very clear-winded horse and, in fairness, the lads said they had him spot on and he was in good form at home. I wasn't really worried (about being off since February) once I heard that. . He jumped a tad slow and was flat out the first four furlongs. I wanted to ride him very forward and I had to sit and suffer a bit until we turned down the back. . Once I got a bit of daylight and kept him going forward a mile out, he started to pick up. Once I got to the front on him, he got comfortable and I was able to ride a race on him. . He's a grand horse and he's very straightforward. Obviously, he stays very well and goes on any ground. He's very genuine. . I wouldn't even mind where he goes in terms of track or ground. He just definitely wants a trip, and a staying track would suit him all the better. . We got the job done today so everyone is happy.
