Kitty Galore lands gamble in Sligo opener
Third career win for Rippon Lodge
that’s a good start to the day. He’s a big strong horse who's eight now and has needed every day of it. He’s matured this year and is a fine leaper of a fence. He’s an imposing horse, he’s 17.1hh and I thought he made the others look very ordinary in the parade ring. I’ll find something for him in Listowel.
Opening races Sligo treble for Ryan
Double for O'Keeffe on Galileo-sired chaser
we're happy to get that for him in what was an ideal race - the conditions and everything were right for him. These (0-109 rated) beginners' chases are great to give horses down the handicap a chance.
Fences win for Fahey farriers
Elliott returns with Sligo winner
it was nice to get that reception from the people here. I’ve missed them for the last six months as much as they’ve missed me. It’s brilliant for my staff. They’ve worked hard. Alicia (McCartan), the girl who led up the horse, is going back to college next week to be a vet, and that was her first time leading up a winner so it’s great.
