Lundy justifies favouritism at Leopardstown
Steip Amach causes 14/1 surprise in Amethyst
I thought she appreciated an ease in the ground but as a four-year-old she is a bit hardier and probably goes on any ground. I was hoping to win a Group 3 and, now that she has achieved that, we can be a bit more careful with her. I'd love to keep her as a broodmare as she will be very easy to mate.
Now books her ticket for Irish Guineas
Moonlight turns on the style in Derby Trial
I don't know about Epsom, but I definitely think he's got a future and a step up in trip would be no problem. I'd be keen to go to Epsom. I think he can go anywhere, but I'd have to discuss it with the Godolphin people and arrive at a consensus. If it were left to me I'd be very keen to go. I've always held him in high regard. We kept him to the end of the year last season, his maiden form was good and then he won a Listed race. I got it wrong the last day, he probably wasn't at the top of his game and we paid the price, but he's bounced back today. He's a very classy horse and he'll stay a mile and a half, but I wouldn't mind dropping back to a mile - he's got plenty of toe. He was as good today as St Jovite was when he won the Derrinstown, but he didn't win at Epsom, he was second. He's a proper Derby horse. I would respect the opposition but not fear them. That is the first bit of decent ground we have had this year. He's a very classy horse and has a good temperament. His dam is a half-sister to Sea The Stars.
Dont Bother Me returns to form for Moran
He was highly tried, he ran in the Guineas and led until two furlongs out in the Jersey. He was sent to England and came back a train-wreck. It's taken a long time to get him back right. He was only half the horse last year, and has come back right this year. He may go to the Curragh on Guineas weekend. We'll see how he is in the morning.
Intisari swoops late for Lyons/Keane
He's still very immature mentally, and physically is still growing. I told Colin to take your time and see what happens. I didn't expect him to win with 9st 12lb. The penny is taking a long time to drop, but he's a good servant and has won three now. I'm sure he'll have to step up into Listed races soon.
