Mint Candy off the mark at fourth attempt
Impressive Jareth another winner for John O'Donoghue
We always thought there was a maiden in him and we just wanted to pick our spot - I thought he'd win today. The maidens landscape in Ireland is tricky, so thankfully it worked in our favour today and I'd say we'll go up in grade before the end of the year. Sligo was soft (ground) and it was good today, so he is versatile ground-wise and there is plenty more to come. We'll look at a pattern race before the season ends and could head to the UK.
Skontonovski records tenth career success
His owner Jimmy Fairhurst wrote to Gary (O'Gorman, handicapper) about the horse last week but he loves fast ground and around here you have to be near the front and the other horse (Galician Girl) helped him along. He always wins a couple of races every year and the boys have had great fun with him. He has been a great horse and when he gets down to his mark he wins his races. He is in at Roscommon on Monday and I'd say he'll have to run as Gary won't be too easy on him.
