More two-year-old success for Murray
She’d a good run the first day, and has improved a lot since, her work was very good at home. It was a good maiden the last day (in Limerick) and the form has worked out well since. We might go for a Listed fillies race next. She stays well and Robbie said she was doing everything very easy and a better race would suit her.
Coleman's Soldier is Fleet of Foot on turf
We had him down as an all-weather horse. He’s a big, raw horse so we gave him a bit of a break and he took ages to get ready. He needs a mile and further. He tries hard and there is a lot left in him because he’s big and weak. I didn’t think he’d handle but it’s probably not too bad yet (changed to yielding after race 1). The horses are running well so that probably helps.
What Adaay gets her turn
The rain was a help and once it came we were conscious that we had to ride her to get the trip. It looked like she didn’t get home in Limerick the last day. Unfortunately I didn’t put cheekpieces on her the last day and I think she needs them. Dylan said she really needed them today because when she got to the front she idled. We were very conscious that we were 5lb wrong. We’re 42 and were running here off 47 so you would be surprised a horse with that profile would be favourite as these races are so competitive.
Crosse completes 77/1 double aboard impressive Plugged In
He won here last year and likes it here. He was drawn 18 so it’s hard from there and we decided to drop him in and it’s worked out. I only have two in my own name to train at the moment. My son Cathal does a great job and rides them out every morning.
