Ebadani an easy winner for Halford & Hoban
With the other horse coming out (Laviniad) he was entitled to do that on his rating.
Strong Whelan drive gets Prince up
He keeps plenty for himself and I thought he was never going to show it. Ronan gave him an absolutely brilliant ride. He is a first class rider. He is a great work horse and he serves a great job at home for Gordon Lord Byron. He wasn't coming out of the stalls with the blinkers on him so we gave him a lot of schooling through stalls with the blinkers on.
Galway next up for Massini's Trap
He is in the Galway Hurdle and that win might just get him into the bottom of the big amateur handicap as well. When he is in such good form I would like him to take his chance in one of them. He has been a great servant and even though he is quite small hopefully he will keep improving. It is great for his owner Sebastian Curran (from Sandycove in Dublin) as he also bred the horse.
Shield has rivals well covered
Solution romps to an easy success
As a young horse we though he was a real horse. He won his point-to-point very impressively but then he developed wind trouble.
Ticket rallies to deny He’s Our Man
Solatentif impresses on debut
He has been working well, but I never put the gun to ours first time out and I'd say my first time out record in bumpers wouldn't be too good. He is deadly to jump and he is a real professional. It is possible that he could go for a four-year-old maiden hurdle at Gowran in October and perhaps a winners bumper in between.
