Imperial Ruler receives warm Fairyhouse reception
Brandy Love takes Grade 1 Mares Novice Hurdle in fine style
Paul did a fantastic job to keep her straight and produce her as he did. The last day she gave away the race here. It was a great race, the Cheltenham winner was here and she beat her fair and square. This mare has a lot of ability and I think if we can get her back going left-handed it would be better. I’d imagine that will be it for this season. We’ll see what her owner wants to do - if he wants to keep racing or breed from her. She is a good racemare but does drift left and that is not ideal. She had a minor problem that kept her out of Cheltenham. This race is more prestigious for breeding being a Grade 1 so I’m delighted for her owner.
Russell at his brilliant best on Gevrey
Danny & Willie have some luck on their side with Mt Leinster
We were probably a little fortunate but they are there to be jumped. It was a nice race to win considering he didn’t jump as well as he can jump. He can improve when he gets better at his jumping. There won’t be too much for him summer jumping over that trip unless he goes out in distance. The Galway Plate is a possibility but he’s very keen and likes to get on with the job.
