Vilman strong at business end
He would prefer a stiffer more galloping track and ideally more of an ease.
Big Break at Group level for Roche at Tipp

On her day she is very classy and she showed that today. Dad will speak to Lord Grimthorpe (the Abdullah racing manager) and she'll likely go for the Knockaire Stakes at Leopardstown now.
Seanie and Connor a hot combo

A 3rd win of the year for Fethard
