Even Song in full cry at Leopardstown
Raw ability gets Tirmizi through on debut
He's a very big colt and that was pleasing. Pat said he won with raw ability. He's come forward in the last few weeks, and did a nice bit of work the other day. He's got big potential, and will start off in one of the classic trials next year.
Weld and Smullen at double with Zannda
She's a battler and at stages in the race it got a bit tight. The plan is to keep her in training next year and we'll try to win more Group races with her.
Blue De Vega on an upward curve
He showed what he was made of at Naas but it's a big step up from a maiden to a Group Three and he's bridged the gap well. He's a very talented colt and does everything very easy. There was a bit of added pressure after being bought by Sheik Fahad, and it's great to win a Group Three for him.
Jaqen makes it 2 wins in 4 days
Laganore moves through the gears
She was very unlucky at Galway and it was my fault at Killarney as the ground was a bit too quick for her.
Prospector gives O'Brien a treble
I've had a few doubles at Dundalk and I think that's my third overall. This horse doesn't show much at home but keeps it for the track. He's a tough, progressive sort.
