Elliott followers not crying as his winning streak continues
He is a nice horse and the horses are running well,. Corey gave him a lovely ride and I’ll try and find another suitable race for him now.

Away To Milan strikes for Rothwell & Torrens
I felt I was getting good at training horses to finish second! Coming down here tonight I thought this lad had a decent chance. He made two mistakes the last day and tonight looked like a lesser contest really. I'll probably give him a break now for a month as he is a big raw five-year-old. He won nicely and it's great to get a winner. I had a second in the last race and another one last night at Ballinrobe and you'd be wondering what you had done wrong. The horses are flying though, and that's my third winner of the season. The track have done an amazing job here. I was disappointed to hear some of my comrades not happy with over watering. I think you can't water enough and on a night when it's drying out you have to err on the side of caution. Everyone is putting in a lot of work at the moment to have it safe. All of ours have come home safe this season and I think that's wonderful, so long may it last.

Nolan's Joyeux Machin recaptures form
On the basis of his bumper and maiden hurdle wins, we thought he was a graded horse. He had been very, very disappointing and on the days he ran bad he was nearly bet after two hurdles. There was no real explanation for it. We were so wrong with Jungle Prose in the weights today, with Danny Gilligan claiming 7lb as well. He travelled and jumped well. Hopefully that trip will just have him more in his comfort zone. We will keep him going now and touch wood he stays right. He will probably go for a beginners chase on his next run and we will see where we go from there. He fell in his point-to-point after jumping brilliant all the way. He looked very good jumping there but just tipped over on landing.
Flavin's Midnight Our Fred outstays rivals
As Hugh just said to me, he is still a big, raw baby and you have to be organising him the whole time. Up and down through the undulations and the jumps, you'd just have to keep him organised. Hopefully there is still a bit of improvement in him. He is still only learning and I've given him plenty of time as he is only a big frame of a horse. Hopefully that'll stand to him in the long run. I thought going down the back that he might be in trouble but to be fair to him, every time Hugh asked him, he kept responding and that's a good sign. He is declared to run in Tramore on Friday in a beginners chase for horses rated 102 or less over hurdles. We will see how he is in the morning. He jumps hurdles like they are fences, he is a machine to jump. Whenever he does go over fences, he will be better again hopefully. I had dam and won a few point-to-points with her. Thankfully Florence and Emily sent me this fella then and they knew I'd look after him. They are great people and have stuck with me since I started training.
