Outsider Order makes two from two over flights

I missed what happened at the last and Sean (Flanagan) said Bryan Cooper (on runner-up Fairyhill Run) thought he had Rachael (Blackmore, on leader Commandingpresence) beaten. He (Formal Order) rallied well, stayed well and picked up well. I told Sean going out not to worry about his price as I thought he beat two good horses the last day. He has had two hurdle runs and two wins so he stepped up today and it is great. I'll take it one race at a time and I've no plan yet. I was talking to Keith (Donoghue, intended rider) and he is just sore from a fall yesterday.

Double for Flanagan as Mate overcomes lengthy layoff

Kitty & O'Keeffe are not for catching

She is from the family of Denman and has lots going for her. She had tying up problems last year and we've got the better of them and she is a different mare this year. Down the road she could be very good as she jumps a fence very well. Sean gave her a brilliant ride and that chap is flying for a reason. I was disgusted with the first race as I think The Little Yank would have won if he wasn't hampered and Fairyhill Run ran a cracker. Fairyhill Run will stay to pattern races, The Little Yank is coming back to where he was last year. It depends on what the handicapper does to Kitty Galore now.

Simple success for Sister Sarah

Super-sub Flanagan completes Limerick treble

he jumped brilliant and Sean gave him a super ride. It is frustrating for Rachael but is great for Sean and I'm delighted for the Halsalls (owners). Rachael is a bit sore and is going to get checked out so hopefully she will be back soon.
