Percy floors odds-on favourite
He was entitled to win it on his ratings on the flat. He'll even come on from a bit better ground. He definitely wants better ground so he might be a horse we'll keep for Punchestown for a winners' of one hurdle. He'll come on for that run.
Russell at double on board Game Of War
Elliott equals record score from last season
He's been disappointing but we decided to take 7lbs off him and Katie gave him a good ride. She rides out one day a week for me. That levels us with 193 (winners) which was a record last year so hopefully we beat it today.

Dawn gets some luck and lands a gamble in the process
She eventually got her luck. I thought she was going to win in Down Royal but she sort of got brought down at the second last. I ran her back in Thurles and it just came a bit quick for her. I went to Hereford for niceish ground and I got off the boat and it rained for 48 hours so eventually she got a bit of luck. I think with a bit of confidence she can follow up and win another chase. She's a summer mare and will tip away for the summer. I'm delighted for James Guilfoyle (owner, a Tipperary man) who is the most amazing owner and supporter and Adam (Short) gave her a very good ride, he was very positive on her the whole way.
Cross card double for Fleming
Getareason could be Punchestown bound now
He didn't handle the track very well, he was hanging out and I think he will improve a lot in his head,.
