Easy win for Tycoon on hurdles debut
Bowenscourt makes all for Danny & Mags
I'm delighted with her. She's an improving filly. It's nice to come up here and do it. She was in on Thursday but I was afraid the ground might go. It's a good galloping track here and fresh after the summer.
Mullins completes quick 64/1 double on Realta
He ran very well in Galway and even when he was fifth in Limerick he was only beaten two lengths. He's a grand horse. He's eleven now and hasn't run that many times. It's beautiful ground - good jumping ground. I don't think he'll be a winter horse.
John gets the job done on debut over fences
I was delighted with his jumping, it was brilliant and he got a great ride. I wouldn't be opposed to stepping him up in trip in time but for the moment we'll look at the Craddockstown back here over two miles. It's a race I like. I'm looking forward to seeing him over further in time as I think he'll stay. Historically our horses are usually better over fences and with the way he jumps you'd be hopeful with him. He's a big raw horse still and he's still only five. He wouldn't want either extremes of ground. The day Douvan hockeyed him in Gowran it was heavy but he got a lot closer to him at Cheltenham on better ground and I think he's better on better ground.
Heroes impresses as connections double-up
Colms Dream completes his hat-trick in style
He likes that ground. I was worried in Killarney that it was too quick for him. But that kind of ground is fine - once it's not heavy. I'm hoping he might sneak into the bottom of a good race. He could step up to three miles and I had the Paddy Power in my head.
Don't delivers for the Harringtons
He'll go jumping now and he's exciting,. We were hoping he'd do that. His form last year was solid and he's gotten stronger.
