Treacys strikes again for Widger
It's great to get it, brilliant. It was touch and go if he was going to get in or not,. We've only two horses for the track so it's great. I have him and his half-sister. I knew he was in good form and is improving all the time. He won over two-and-a-half on the inside track at Punchestown last time and I knew going three miles around here would suit better. In off his low weight with Kevin taking 3lb off him was big help as well. He's a chaser really and I have my heart set on a novice handicap chase at Navan in the middle of March. After that we'll decide.
Easy Game leads home Mullins one-two
I was expecting the other horse (Allaho) to win but Easy Game just has that little bit more speed. Paul (Townend) felt the other horse just needed the race. He thought maybe the next day under the same conditions he would turn the tables. The Dublin Racing Festival would be the obvious target for Easy Game now all being well. He's probably not a real winter ground horse and when he won that it tells me the ground is a lot better than a lot of people imagine. I'm happy that I took Al Boum Photo out now and we'll go for softer ground somewhere else. Allaho gallops and jumps. They could both come back here for the Flogas Novice Chase. We'll have to see how they all come out of Christmas and then try and plan a path where we can separate them as well.
