French Rain looks useful on debut

She was very professional and did it well. We liked her at home. She'll improved plenty for the run, as ours do normally. We've a good bunch of fillies and she's up there. She holds all the early closing entries for the good races, mainly because we have to do it early. She'll improve for a step up in trip as well. There were a lot of talking horses there and we knew we'd be a bit green so we're delighted with what she's after do and she was professional with it.

That was good. Donnacha thought it was the first time he was 100 per cent professional. Ours usually take a couple of runs to come and he took a good jump up today,. said Joseph O'Brien. We always thought he was well capable of winning a maiden. It was too sharp for him on his second run and at Limerick it was his first run after a break and he gave a little blow. He ran well there. He loved that stiff six and he's out of a Galileo mare so he should get seven furlongs. Donnacha said it's very blustery and he thought he might have raced too handy in the breeze but he quickened up and ran to the line well.

Donnacha gave her a lovely ride, kept it very simple and controlled the race,. In fairness she is a good mare. She's bee improving and improving and to be a Group 2 winner now she is hugely valuable. It cut up a little bit in fairness but still she had to go and do it and she's done it well. I don't think she even got a flick, she was good and impressive. To be honest I don't have another plan with her. She's a Group 2 winner now. She's a filly that could maybe travel a little bit. The Blandford could be another option. She was very well bought and I'm delighted for all the lads.
