Going - Good, good to yielding in places. Overcast
Statement proves too strong for Claiming rivals
That was brilliant to get. He's been disappointing, his form in England was good,. He works well at home but he's probably a little bit high in the ratings to be fair. Shane came in last time and said to take the blinkers off him, he didn't think he could see enough. I'd say he needs something but the blinkers definitely weren't helping him. It was a poor race and Shane kicked at the right time. It's an achievement to get a win with him. Shane is adamant that if he did happen to drop into a 0-65 he would win, where they can't get away from him all the time. That was definitely no better than a 0-65. It was a poor race and we won't be getting carried away but we'll take the win.
Second Bellewstown success for The Bog Bank
She's in a serious vein of form at the minute. I thought off 60 that she might be up against it, going on form she was going to be up against it. We'll tip away through the winter with her, she takes very little work. She was just unlucky to meet one the last day in Dundalk and they were well clear. James is serious value for his 7lb. He's starting to get a few more rides but I'm surprised he's not getting a few better rides because he has a great head on him and rides a very good race.

I can't believe it, three in a row! It's hard enough to get a horse to win one but now he's after winning three. He's just transformed and he's a legend. Maybe it's just that he's a year older and he's taking his racing a bit better. He blew a fuse one day with Seamie in the stalls at Navan so we try to get him in as late as we can. Whether that has transformed or maybe he's just taking his racing better. We're doing nothing different to last year. He's winning races now easily. We might give him another run in the Curragh, Scott said there is a big pot in him. Our horses are running well, Secret Magician was third in a big handicap at the Curragh last Saturday. When you are on fire, you're on fire.
