"Ballinrobe is my favourite track in the world"
He has scope to jump a fence in time and is a genuine horse. It mightn't have been a very good race but he won convincingly. I'm delighted for his owners [Mee family], they are fantastic owners. I hardly ever leave here empty handed! I was meant to be at the sales today, but this is my favourite track in the whole world!

The World Citizen ticks off Ballinrobe
God be with the old days, this place was always good to me. It was the only track in Ireland that let me gallop Monksfield [Champion Hurdle winner in 1978 and 1979], but nowadays they let you gallop anywhere. That's three races she's won and she has the option of going over fences as well. The owners the Newells are from Dunshaughlin and are mighty owners.
Vicalus and Cooper team up well
Nearest The Pin gets lucky in Ballinrobe
Minella For Value delights the punters
He's the horse that nobody wanted! He won his bumper in Cork and was due to go to the sales, but jumped a gate the day before he was due to go and he missed the sales engagement. When we did get him to Brightwells nobody wanted him. He's an honest staying chaser and keeps galloping and he wants good ground.
Shantalla makes it two wins in three days
