Sirjack scores for Tylicki and Lee
he ran a cracker in the Curragh first time out and we were a little disappointed in Leopardstown but in hindsight we probably ran him back a bit too soon.
Well backed Sollertia scores for Collins
I’m delighted with her and her maiden race (debut run) at the Curragh has worked out really well. We were confident enough if she handled the ground - that was the big question, and she did.
Smullen moves closer with R'common double
Heavy ground is the key You Cee
He’s as tough as you get but he can’t quicken. He’s very ground dependant, and all he does is keep at it. I’m just sorry that Eamonn O’Carroll is not here as he’s been in and out of hospital, and hopefully that will cheer him up a bit. The owners are from Listowel so that is where he will be heading. They are great owners and have been with me since I started.
Happy days as Giorni Felice wins for Lynam
Smullen adds to list of winners at Roscommon
He didn’t get a run the other day (at Killarney). The small field and the rain plus Smullen helped. He’s always promised to do that. He had blinkers on the last day and they seemed to upset him in the stalls, so we put a visor on for the first time today. Bernie has been with me a long time and I rode winners for him. He’s a lucky owner. He could have another run on the Flat on that type of ground but the plan is to go hurdling. He’s schooled nicely.
Mulvany eyes Listowel with On The Go Again
the Lartigue Hurdle in Listowel has been the long term plan, and to keep him on the Flat until then. Hopefully he won’t get too high a mark for the Lartigue, and I think he’d have a chance.
Smullen completes R'common 4-timer
he just ran too free at Tramore, and the plan was always to come here. Smullen was available which was a help, and he’s done it well.
