Alfie defies penalty to prove real Mate to Naas punters

He keeps making us look good! This was an afterthought, and I’ve just let him freshen up since the Curragh. I said to Austin (Whelan, owner) to let me teach him how to sprint. I’m always moaning that Irish sprinters need practice where the English get them every week so if I didn’t run him then I’m not living up to what I’m asking for. He’s improved from run to run and we should have huge fun with him next year. Take the blinkers off him and he just goes to sleep. He’s a different horse with headgear. Six (furlongs) is grand. He does get further but we won’t fix what is not broken and he can travel next year when the conditions suit.

Heavenly Power is too strong for rivals in Naas sprint handicap

It’s nice to get the result today as all the Power family were coming here. The way the programme is after the Bold Lad this was the only race left for him and we ran for nine and a half grand. I’d always hoped he’d win a big one, but he comes up short in them. He’s good in this grade. He’ll go out in the paddock now and come back next year. The ease in the ground is a help to him.

Sheehy delivers Rahmi from off the pace to win for Murtagh

He’s a horse that always shows plenty at home and is always competitive in those big handicaps. He’s probably getting put up that couple of pounds all the time. He was near a career high mark and it was going to be tough for him to win. He has that ability and when things fall right for him he’s always capable of doing that. He goes very well for Danny, and he timed it nicely today. I think that will probably be it for the year.
