Mullins and Walsh win opener at Listowel
Leahy back amongst the winners at Listowel
it's tough because I have to sell any of the decent ones and I'm left with the moderate ones to train. I had a two year old (Ellenvelyn) which ran well when third at Cork recently and the phone was hopping for the next few days afterwards. There was plenty interest from America and I didn't have much option but to sell. I'm delighted this horse (Fantastic Bob) won today and he might go for a similar race at Roscommon next week.
Our Man Zebo gains narrow handicap win
the ground was too soft for him at Punchestown and that's his ground. Barry gave him a great ride and he'll go chasing now; I think he's a fair horse.
Ben dictates matters in the feature
Pride comes after a fall
We were unable to celebrate her last success on the day but we'll celebrate this one!. She's very consistent and has been running into some good horses. She can handle quick and slow ground, and is a filly that we can have a lot of fun with. Adrian felt he'd have caught the leader but he might be a bit optimistic. She could be switched back to hurdles.
Glynn's gelding is Gonebeyondrecall
he (Gonebeyondrecall) ran in Kinsale on Saturday and we were going to go eventing with him next week! We'll have to change the plan now!. His last win was here four years ago and he won the Land Rover Bumper seven years ago.
Champion Trainer completes Listowel double
we always thought he was a good horse and he is probably a stayer in the making. I'm not sure if he'll have a break or else he could go for a winners of two bumper in Down Royal in a few weeks.
