Fiona MacCoul proves a legend for Syndicates Racing

She’s a real tough filly and a light weight in those races makes a big difference. That was the plan to get out and be prominent from her low draw. Nathan said he got it handy in front which was great. She learned a lot in Bellewstown which was too sharp and she got unbalanced over the road. She stuck at it very well today and I’d say she’ll get a mile.

Azada back to winning ways in Naas Listed contest

It was important that she won that race. She ran a very good race in the (Irish 1,000) Guineas and won well as a two-year-old. She handles that ground well. It’s on the slow side but that’s what she likes. I would like to have given her a prep run before the Irish Guineas but the way the programme was this year the classic trial was only two weeks before the Guineas and I like to have three weeks before a Group 1. The nine and a half furlongs might have been a little too far for her the last day in Gowran. She had been working well and I thought she might be hard to beat today. Chris gave her a lovely ride, he was in the right place at the right time, and she idled a bit in front so that’s why he had to keep her up to it. She’s a very big filly and there is a possibility that she may be kept in training next year but that’s all for future discussion. The way she won there you would think there is every possibility she could win a Group race next year. That will be it for this year.

Caught U Looking back to her best in Listed race romp

I was undecided whether to run her again as your always worried this time of the year after being on the go for a long time. She deserved that win and has never run a bad race all year. A lot of people were doubting that she would stay but Colin has been saying all along that not only does she stay but she wants further. I said to him going out to ride her whatever way you want. I’m delighted as she’s off now to the December Sale and that’s her last run. She’s a valuable enough commodity as a broodmare or as a racemare. I’m sure she’ll sell well and the best of luck to her. I’ll be sorry to see the back of her but that’s the way it goes, and we’ll have to get another one.

Cloud Seeker lands four-timer for Slattery's in Naas finale

He’s a nice, improving horse. I’m trying to convince the owner to let me run him in the Leopardstown October Handicap next Saturday, but I think he’ll probably be finished for the season now. He’s something to look forward to and he’s brilliant to jump as well. Andrew said he’s idling in front and he’s probably still ahead of the handicapper as he’s only barely doing enough. It isn’t easy to win four in a row and we might have a bit of fun in good handicaps next year.
