Midnight Mover takes opener at Bellewstown

McConnell happy with Lyle Lady
Job done really. Her half brother was sold yesterday for €77,000 at the Doncaster Sales. She's a tough genuine filly, she won't do too much more this season. I think she'll be much better as a three year old. She was very difficult temperament wise back in the Spring but we thank god we got her going in the right way. Shane said he got in trouble early on and had to give her a few cracks but she won well enough in the end.
A Firm Foundation for Carroll
She's a very rough sort of a filly and very hard to ride. We don't know where we're going to go next we were just really trying to find out what her trip is.
McCullagh/McAteer in form
I'm delighted for Niall, he's a great jockey and he gets on with this horse very well and knew what to do. We were afraid of the ground as all of his best form is on fast ground. He's the right side of the handicap and he loves this place. I'm thrilled Niall won on this fellow and my wife Bernie is a big fan of his.
Toberogan scores for Murphy
He won here last year. Keagan was fabulous on him, he gave him a great ride. He followed my instructions to a tee. I walked the track earlier and I couldn't believe the horses were coming up by the rail as the ground is good by the wings of the hurdles.
Mullins takes last for Swan
