Solar Verde strikes for Weld and Smullen

She's a very well bred filly and did it nicely. She appreciated the fast ground and the trip. Pat gave her a lovely ride. She might run once more this season just to get a bit of black type for her.

Birthday bonus for jockey Coakley

On his Laytown run (won a six furlong handicap) he had every chance. You could discount his last run at Listowel (sixth in an extended six furlong handicap) as the ground was too heavy for him and he struggled on it. He liked the quick ground here today and got a great start on the rail.

Manning and Do The Bosanova show heart

I thought she was beaten. She's an improver and she might run again this season. She might be able to do something more.

Solent Ridge pleases connections

That's super for Gary. The owner (Chris Dineen) is very loyal to him and that's Gary's third winner now so his claim will be down to seven pounds. Solent Ridge is a superstar at home. He is a great workhorse and leads all our good horses. Hopefully he will keep going and pay his way. The owner is a great owner and has got a few more horses with us now but this one is his favourite.

Akeed Wafi shows his potential

He's a nice horse and he likes good ground. Where he goes next will depend on the weather.
