Hide And Seek too elusive for her rivals
Delighted to get that for Diana (Vasicek, owner). She’s a mare we like a lot so it's nice that she’s got her head in front. She's home-bred from a great farm, so this is brilliant. She had been building towards that win. We just backed off her on the real winter ground, and Rachael said she loved that ground. She has lovely scope. She loose-schools really well over the fence, so I’ve been telling Diana she’s going to be better over a fence. We might look at a handicap at the Punchestown Festival.
Life In The Park gives de Bromhead a double
Blackmore doubles up on Prince Zaltar
He was very disappointing the last day on heavy ground at Clonmel. He really struggled on it. He jumped better and travelled better on that ground today. He’s a work in progress and has grown up a bit every day. James O’Sullivan has done a lot of the work with him but wasn’t able to do the weight today. We got Rachael today and what better rider could you have. One of the syndicate came over from Gibraltar this morning. They are from all over the place and it’s great they are here today.
Fighter Allen downs the opposition
Presenting makes his Point again at Tramore
Clody Valley makes the breakthrough in Tramore
He’s had lots of wind ops. He’s looked a bit of a pig but it’s just his wind catching him. I’m delighted for his owner/breeder Brendan Murphy from Bunclody. It’s a long old road when you are going through that many issues and problems with horses. He’s always had ability and it’s great to get his head in front after all that we have been through with him.
