50/1 Cheiliuradh doesn't surprise Kelly
It wasn't that big of a surprise. When we got her she was supposed to have a bit of wind trouble so we built her and built her and built her. She hasn't done a thing wrong. We ran her in a schooling race and she flew home so I said to Sean to keep filling her up and he was brilliant on her. Sean rides this place particularly well but I'm probably biased because he is my jockey! . I'm delighted for her owners (the Staffords from Kilmore Quay in Wexford) and this is their first horse with me. They bred her as well. The family has gone a bit old, it is a nice family but the dam hadn't bred a track winner so that will liven it up for them a bit. She is a nice horse and she is improving. She was working well at home. There was a suspected problem with her palate before, we couldn't see it at home but you are always wondering when it comes to crunch time.
Ma Garrett holds all the aces in Wexford
It was a good tough performance. Coming here today I thought she was better than before Fairyhouse. She would prefer a more galloping track and the ground was a bit dead for her. We will keep her novice hurdling and she has us a little bit excited. She has been a good mare and we won't run her for a month now. We will be looking at the good mares novice hurdles and we might get a trip across the water with her. We have something to aim for now. David gave her a good ride and the lads in the yard are working hard.

Dandridge delights Moore
It is nice to win the race again. He is a flat-bred horse more or less but he is a grand big stamp of a horse. The day he won at Tramore he was flat to the board as it was too sharp for him. I was looking forward to stepping him up to two and half to find out would he get it and he got it well. It is going to open doors for him now big time. This is his ground and hopefully we will get another run into now before it goes. We won't run him on heavy ground. He is going to be 120 now or near enough to it so he will be stepping up again. He should go on now, he is the right age and hopefully he will have a good future. It is nice to have a good horse for Mr Bartlett. We will place him carefully over the winter and we won't run him on real heavy ground. He is more of a autumn, spring, summer horse.
Cashelard Lady a first for Crawley
I have two in full training and have one in on Tuesday (Court Challenge). I'm training out of Tommy Carberry's old yard. She ran very well in Punchestown, I was delighted with her. She needed to improve again as Earth Sister was second in Punchestown. She is consistent.
