Pour Sioux comes home well under O'Regan

Diamond has good Kut at his hurdles

He has had an awful lot of problems and has had a couple of runs in three years. He has had every problem - leg trouble, kissing spines and cracked bones, everything. He is a fabulous big horse and was a smashing horse to get when we got him and we were hoping for big things as he always worked well. The owners have been very very patient and today was only partly repaying it. Hopefully this might only be the start and he could go on and win something else. He has a handicap mark and he shouldn't really get anything for that. Hopefully he'll be alright in the morning, that is the main thing. Hugh rang last night for the ride, a couple of other lads also rang, but riding Henry's (de Bromhead) and making the running in races was what swung me to him, as I wanted someone that had an idea what he was doing out in front. This horse is very hard but he gave him an intelligent ride.

'Bragging rights' to Gallagher following Conna '1-2'

I have the bragging rights in Conna and I actually worked her in Jimmy's (Mangan) the other day, so I'll have to thank Jimmy!

Arthur's Baby impresses in Cork

For a big mare, she obviously wants better ground. She is 16.3hh and is more a chaser than hurdler, but hasn't had niceish ground since her point-to-point; she was very good in her point to points.

Knock On Steel gains compensation at Cork

he is a better horse this year and has matured mentally. He was turned sideways last week (at Tramore) and only for that he might have won. Today's race was the only race for him over hurdles but fences are really what he wants.
