List delivers over timber in Navan opener
I’d say it’s the first day that he’s got the right track. He looked a different horse there today on a big galloping track. We’ll find a novice for him.
Cheltenham heroes team up with Ejayteekay
She’s always been very free but this year since she came back in has been very settled at home and relaxed in her work. Racing like that is helping her to get home. She’s always got through soft ground but just wouldn’t stay because she was too hard on herself. As long as the handicapper is not too hard on her she might win another one. We ran her once over fences and she ran well so she will probably go chasing next season.
Dempseys strike again with Caravation
She’s tough out and did it the hard way from the front. They were rated to finish close enough and they did. I’d say she will run again with the ground the way it is. We’ll find something, maybe a winners of two or something like that. Derrinross ran well (in the Albert Bartlett). The good ones quickened away from him but he got a bit of prize money and came home well which is great. He’ll probably have one more run and then go chasing if it stayed soft early in the new season. He jumped brilliant — he never jumped as well.
Darasso does the business in Webster Cup
Scoir springs shock in valuable novice prize
He’s been frustrating, and needs a few tweaks and massages between runs. We fancied him at Naas two runs back but he jumped desperate, and the last time in the Leinster National a few horses crossed him at the first and he was never travelling after that. He was a different horse today. He travelled sweetly all the way, although he did make a mistake at the middle fence down the back but he kept jumping well after that. I’m delighted that he’s back to form. A penalty for that win should put him into the Irish National and that’s probably where he’ll go now.
Bilbo Bags prize after overcoming interference
Swan strikes on Fiddler for Walsh
He’s a nice horse for the future. I wanted to run at Limerick but the owner wanted to come up here. He was right but he probably would have won at Limerick anyway.
