Curl Cat takes opener at Dundalk
He deserved that , he's a lovely horse and we were hoping he would have done it earlier in the year . He'll be a grand horse for next year and he absolutely loves that ground.
Fandango Boy wins again for Broderick
Boynagh brings joy to Halpin
The form worked out well with the previous winner (Fandango Boy). She has been unlucky all Summer with getting balloted out and she loves good ground which we never got. As regards plans I don't know where we'll go next. I suppose Wolverhampton could be an option we'll have to discuss it with the owners.
McDonogh at his best aboard Wikaala
I'm delighted for the owner Sean Gallagher he has been a good owner of mine. We will probably bring him to Wolverhampton in ten days time as there is a race there for him.
Bluebell Rocks home under Foley
That was his last chance, he ran in a three year old hurdle at Navan last Saturday and he ran terrible so his owner said this was his last chance. He's a lovely big horse and he's always shown us plenty at home but has never shown us anything on the track. We'll give him a break now as he probably wants good ground and there's no point running him on heavy ground.
Happy Moments for Carroll
Donnelly scores with Home Secretary
He won very easily this evening and we'll probably keep him to something similar. We'll give him a little break now and bring him back here in February. The long term plan would be to go hurdling with him and the key to him is good ground. This should be a good tonic for his owner Jim Gleeson who is sick at the moment so I hope this makes him feel better.
Morgan wins concluding race at Dundalk
I'm delighted he won, Fiona McStay the owner was hoping he'd win before the foal sales as she was selling his full brother. Fiona bred him and she has all the family. It's so frustrating that this place is closed after tomorrow evening until February as I've loads of fit horses who couldn't get into races, and now that they are this place is finished for three months, it's ridiculous.
