Harrington's Green makes big Impact under Foley
It's great to get that, he a lovely horse. He's the first horse that Marc Chan has ever bred so he's very excited,. He's a very laid back horse, a big horse, and he's probably a little bit on the weak side still. We'll give him a bit of time and we probably won't be going anywhere in a hurry. There are plenty of mile races in the autumn. He's got some entries. We'll see how he comes out of this and go from there. Whatever he does now he's going to get better.
Another happy ending for O'Brien's Bedtime Story
I'm delighted with her, Ryan was delighted with her and said he didn't open her up,. He said she was very green and in an ideal world he would have preferred the tempo to be quicker. He said he just came there and taught her. That's exactly what we came here for, for education. It's a great place to do it. He said she's very pacey and classy and sure we saw that. I'd say you couldn't go fast enough for her. To hear him saying that he never opened her up is a good sign. That means he was only in third gear. It's great to be educating them. Last year we ran Ylang Ylang here, made the running and mentally it did her a little bit of harm for the rest of the year. We had to go back and start again. That's why we let the other filly go along in front of her today, to educate her. I thought if she was well she'd go for the Debutante at the Curragh on the way to the Moyglare. We're teaching her to relax and race. The second filly is a lovely filly and she'll step up to a mile whenever we want her.
Fever swoops to spring 80/1 surprise
Hell proves too Hot for Tyros Stakes rivals
That was nice, he's a nice colt,. He quickened up well, they went a good old gallop the whole way. He's tough and he'll probably just have one more run this year. He had to do it the hard way because he had to go and catch the pacemaker and then go away from him. Shane was thinking the other horse would come to him and take him along but it didn't and he had to go and commit. He'll go a mile, probably even this year. I don't think we'll go to the National Stakes, I'd say we'll wait for something over a mile in September. We've got two nice milers and we'll keep them well apart!
Tokenomics bags follow up win
He's a real nice horse and he's obviously going the right way,. He's improved all the way through and he loves a bit of decent ground. There is a £100,00 handicap in York for him and that's probably where he'll go. I think the track will suit him. We had a discussion about whether this trip would suit him or not. I'd say a strong run mile would be perfect for him as he has the turn of foot. The race certainly wasn't run to suit him but good horses will do that.
Aeronautic flies in under McDonogh at Leopardstown
He won well. He won nicely in Dundalk the last day and it was an impressive performance today, he quickened up well and he's a progressive horse,. He was much straighter today and the rail was a help. I thought he quickened up well, they went a good even tempo and there was no hiding place. It's nice to have a nice horse for the Newtown Anner team. I suppose he's heading for stakes race now, or at least a good handicap. I think anything like that (ground) or better is fine for him. I don't think he wants it too slow.
Sceptred Isle doubles up for Kingston in the lucky last
That's great, the ground was only just soft enough and thankfully she stayed,. We took our time and she got up in spite of the ground. There is a race in Galway but I think we'll skip it and pick something in a while once she's okay. It's been a great couple of runs from her. I didn't give out about the handicapper (last time). Sometimes you think 'why did he give her that' but he's the professional. It was a very good ride by Chris, as usual from him. I feel a bit sorry for Siobhan (Rutledge) who was suspended but we had an able deputy. We'll pick something later on because she wants soft ground and we'll keep her fresh and well. There might be a good pot in her.
