Gulf Of Mexico gets off the mark at Killarney
The Vik gets off the mark for in-form Slattery
Drish Melody returns to form at 16/1
It has been a long time coming. We were delighted with her at two (years old) in Dundalk but whatever was going on, she didn't take to it again. The first-time blinkers obviously did the trick and she got there lovely in the end. We knew she had it, she was working brilliantly and we were happy with her in Listowel when the ground was a bit quick. We bred her ourselves but couldn't get her sold and we'll now consider going back to Dundalk. She'll have a break now as it has been a long year for her.
Cosmic Vega wins impressively for in-form Halford
Longchamp connection with Killarney winner
she is very well bred and obviously we got the black-type (placing) with her already and it was important to get that win.

Powell earns more plaudits on Beautiful Chaos
She is a big galloping mare, travelled great and Jamie was brilliant on her and the 7lb claim was a big help. She is very consistent and a 'four-and-up' maiden suited her down to the ground because she was often being beaten by a three year old. Her mother was rated 90 on the flat and won over hurdles so she could go jumping but will have another run on the flat before the turf season is over. The lads bred her, raced her dam and haven't had a winner for seven years. They're over the moon, there were tears shed and we roared her home.
