Reality shines at Limerick
I'm delighted with that as he's been knocking on the door,. He'll have one more run before going on his summer break. He hasn't had much of a break recently. Keith gave him a great ride.
Geraghty keeps his cool on Jack
Barry didn't think he was going anywhere three out but he finds a lot and always has done,. He looked beaten on his second last run at Gowran and found plenty for Matty Bowes. He'll go summer chasing now when the new season starts.
Instalment all out to hold Fancy
The race looked plenty competitive and it all goes to educating him and giving him experience,. He should develop into a fair chaser. He's designed to jump fences and might just have one more run over hurdles at Fairyhouse or Punchestown. Brian gave him a great ride and I have great faith in him. He let him stretch when he needed to and ask him at the last two hurdles. I'd imagine he'll come on for this run.
Tough Thought best of the mares
She's a good little mare and Bryan was very good on her. She never really carried him but he persevered,. She disappointed on her last couple of runs and I thought she wanted good ground so I was disappointed when I heard the jockeys describing it earlier as horrible. She may go for a handicap or the Grade 2 mares race at Fairyhouse. We'll look for some blacktype.
Cracker scores again at Limerick
Adrian gave him a great ride. He runs and jumps great for him,. He'll more than likely go for the Power Gold Cup at Fairyhouse next. He's entered at Aintree but won't go there. Adrian said he actually jumps better on worse ground.
Waaheb electric under McNamara
He won very easily although Robbie said he hated the ground,. It was quite sticky but his class rose to the top. He'll go to Punchestown for the champion bumper next and that would probably finish him then for the summer.
