Fallon misses F'house rides & opening winner
Time To Reason scores for Murtagh/King
he'd a nice run in Dundalk but had sore shins after it. His last couple of runs have been progressive, and it's nice to get a three-year-old maiden winner. It all worked out nicely, and Connor felt when he pulled him out he was always going to win. He's a solid, tough little horse and will go for handicaps. I'd like him to stay on 72!
Sixteen year old Daly rides first winner
Evan is as nice a kid you couldn't find, and it's rare to meet someone these days with his attitude and enthusiasm for the job. The idea will be to get him three winners as quick as we can, and then let him out to others trainers. His minimum weight is 8st4lb at the moment, so he can claim 10lb off 9st. this horse had sore shins last year, and the ease in the ground helped him. We thought he was smart when he won his maiden last year. It looked obvious that (runner-up and stablemate) Spader didn't stay (1m4f) last time, and we probably ran him back a bit too quickly here.
Hussey wins on 'spare' Shilling
she was a bit unlucky the last day at Naas, and the cut in the ground suited her. She got a good old drive from Michael. She looks like she is coming in season but she got the job done. She won four times in England, and is getting back to that form. She's entered in Bellewstown on Friday but that will come too quick. I think she will get seven furlongs somewhere like Roscommon.
Hanlon's Camlann lands a gamble
he was sixth in his first run in a Listed bumper at Cheltenham but has been disappointing since. The little cut in the ground was a big help, and I'd say he will be heading to Galway.
Smullen steers Xsquared to finale win
he was getting a bit clever on the flat. We stepped him up to a mile and a half, and I was worried going out if he would get it but seems more settled. He's a lovely horse to have for the summer and there is a fair chance he could run over fences at Wexford on Friday. He’ll mix it between fences and the flat as his mark is too high over hurdles.
