Donoghue off the mark
Keith is working with me and looks a very good rider. Hopefully he will keep his head down now and will continue progressing as a jockey . he has already ridden 150 flapper winners.
Lough Ferrib has rivals all-at-sea
Lough Ferrib disappointed slightly on the Flat on his last two starts and will now go for another handicap hurdle.
Back Me Up scores fourth win
Fitzfirth makes peace with Fitzgerald
Head Waiter delivers for O'Sullivan
Head Waiter is a classy horse but broke down when he ran last at Killarney in May '08. Paddy (Flood) said he blew up on the run to the final fence and he should come on a lot from the run. Hopefully he'll stay sound now and we'll make plans once he stays in one piece.
Pride scores for Russell/Ryan
Keys Pride seems to love this place. I wasn't fully happy with her before she ran poorly at Galway but she was back to herself coming here. She's been a great servant but I've no plans from here.
Lucky William impresses in Listowel finale
I think Lucky William is an absolute airplane and showed his class there. We brought him to Thurles for a schooling bumper last season and he tried to run out three or four times but came back on the bridle strongly each time. He jumps for fun and has the makings of a serious horse.
