Tough Cathleen not for beating in Clonmel opener
She was a little bit unlucky with the mistake at the second last when she landed in a hole but did well to stay going,. She did well to keep going in that ground and we'll look for a winners' race or a handicap next.
O'Grady credits Enright after Great win
He's had ten runs and eight places so was nearly entitled to win one. He might go for a little winners race next before he goes chasing,. There was no particular reason (he carried a first-time tongue-tie) but I thought he stopped a bit quick, but it was two and a half miles. Philip (Enright) came back in the last day and he said he'd have won at two miles so I thought we'd give him every chance back over two miles and he was proved right. That was Philip's feeling and fair dues to him. It's Philip's first winner for me.
Dream start by Chris for de Bromhead
Sunset Sadie makes light of gruelling Clonmel conditions
They probably went a bit fast in front and she stayed going well. She had disappointed us at Christmas but we freshened her up since and she'll now continue to run away,. She handled that ground and we'll give her a few weeks before running again.
Codd's advice spot on with Freeway Space
That was badly needed! This is all thanks to Jamie (Codd) who rode her in Limerick and said she jumped the third last and seemed to choke up on him so we got her palate fired and it seemed to have made all the difference,.
29/1 Clonmel brace for Enright
He did it nicely although it wasn't the strongest race and it suited,. He was exposed until he won his hurdle race so I didn't go back for more and I'll look for another handicap chase next.
Augustin sends favourite backers home happy
Chasing was always going to be his game and he goes away on that heavy ground. He stayed at it well and you'd be hoping he'll improve from that,.
