Exchange squeezes through to win opener

Pallaskenry gets back up in thriller

Townend doubles up on Hall

I thought he was never going to win over hurdles to tell you the truth. He always got one to beat him and I thought the one coming on the outside was going to do him again today. He actually went on and picked up again. You can put a line through him last run at Limerick. He backed off with the visor on. I put the visor on because I thought he didn't go through with his race at Kilbeggan. I put the cheekpieces back on him today and they seemed to work. Paul gave him a very good ride. Johnny Moore was supposed to ride him but he is away on holidays. It was a well-deserved win. He'll probably stay over hurdles. I can't understand why he is not putting it in on the Flat, he might have another go on it, I think he is very well-handicapped on the Flat.

Ornua too hot to handle in beginners chase

Queen back on top at Wexford

I'm delighted for Johnny. He actually got me my first winner a couple of years ago, and I rent my yard from Johnny's father Liam. They are a great family and have been such a help to me ever since I started training. Johnny gave her a super ride, because she wasn't really ever travelling. She probably does want further and the track probably didn't suit her. It's great that it worked out in the end. She has won five for me now and has also won a point-to-point. She has black-type and she is brilliant. She has a great owner (Michael Mee) who is very supportive of me. If there was something in Galway for her we would like to go there. She is a little bit claustrophobic so I'm not sure whether it would suit her. Like any good woman, she likes her own space!. We'll pick something out for her in two or three weeks time. She is actually a pleasure to have and we bought her relatively cheap after she won her point-to-point.

Quick springs shock to give O'Keeffe rare racecourse win

Mullins completes first and last race double with Flight

He was a little green but got a nice gap on the inside. Once he knew what I was asking him to do he picked up well. I think he will come for it mentally, because at home he hasn't been showing that, so obviously he is better on the track. He is German bred and he should handle softer ground as well. He'll stay further no problem.
