Santi off the mark in Gowran opener
When comes good in style
She did it well and likes the hard ground,. I ran her on soft and then at Dundalk, where they walked and she was only beaten a length-and-a-half. I think she could progress.
Hennessy and Buddy strike again
Banimpire proves tough again
The Blue Wind Stakes at Naas over 1m2f is probably next on the agenda and we'll take it from there,. She's entered in all the Guineas and Oaks but it'll be Naas first.
Adilapour repels them in trial
He battled well but he doesn't kill himself and is a bit lazy,. But he's a good galloper and likes the distance. You have to make use of him. He handles the ground and had plenty in the tank - it just had to be got out. He's a nice horse. A listed race over that distance would be ideal.
Malayan makes impression on debut
She did it very nicely,. Her mother won the Victor McCalmont for me here on this day seven years ago and hopefully this filly will develop into a stakes filly as the year progresses. She's from one of Lady O'Reilly's very best families.
