Further joy for the Lattas with Little Mitch

My son Andrew does all the work with her. He was looking at her yesterday and he was saying I hope she is fit enough, but she is a mare that carries condition,. You'd think she isn't fit enough but she is hard, she is an eight-year-old now. He was hoping for a good run, he was hoping she'd be in the frame. She might be little and she is called Little Mitch, but she has a big, big, big heart. You are never disappointed with her as she always gives you her all. We actually bought the dam of her as a foal so that's how long we have the family. She is the last of them racing and we are keeping her as a broodmare, that's the plan with her. She is one of those family pets now, we always have a good day out with her.

Barry John Foley fires in first double

I gave him a run around Punchestown on ground that he wouldn't like just to familiarise myself with him. He is a horse for the likes of here and Tramore. He is in again on Monday at Tramore so we will see how he is. It's nice to get a winner for my brother-in-law (Barry John Foley).

Spancil Hill so good in Boolavogue

That was good. He was disappointing at Thurles the last day, we thought he'd run well, but something happened to him at the third fence. He jumped left, Rachael Blackmore rode him and after that she couldn't keep him in the race. We brought him home and nothing showed up so we brought him here to go left-handed and it paid dividends! . He was very good and a little bit more impressive than I thought he would be. I didn't think that he'd go on the ground, I thought it was a bit too good for him. He is still a young enough horse and is unexposed, he doesn't have that many runs, so there is a chance he will improve away. It is unlikely he will run again until Listowel now because he wants softer ground.

Codd's busy spell paying off

She is a lovely mare. Jamie won a point-to-point in Lingstown on her, that's over a year ago now. She was ready to run earlier but she got a small cut and that just set her back,. Fair play to her owner Larry, he knows the horse well and he never put me under pressure. I suppose I was under a bit of pressure this evening with Jamie flying home and flying back tomorrow, but thanks be to God it worked out. We are delighted, the plan was today and we will see where we go from here. She won her point-to-point by half a length, but she was careful jumping and Jamie said that day if she had jumped the last she would have won by eleven lengths, and that if she had jumped all of them she would have won by a football pitch! . Larry (Murphy, the owner) is from Castlelyons and he used to ride himself. We had great success together, he rode in four point-to-points for me and won the four of them. He doesn't ride anymore, he broke his leg and had trouble with his weight.
