Navan Sat, 22nd Mar, 2025  Cardcounter He’s a nice horse, a good honest horse and stays well. He stayed going well and showed a good attitude. There might not be much left for him. That could be it for the year, we’ll see. He could be a proper staying chaser on soft ground next year.

Wexford Mon, 17th Mar, 2025  Bite That I could get used to this! He had the form to win but still had to go out and do it. It was a good day at the office and hopefully he can win again.

Thurles Thu, 6th Mar, 2025  Are You Busy That was needed! She was nearly entitled to do that on her form and she is a grand little mare and is a good little jumper. I'm quiet enough with just six or seven horses to run and she will tip away on good ground during the summer.

Navan Sun, 9th Feb, 2025  Better Days Ahead Better Days Ahead wasn't doing a stroke in front. It wasn't ideal, he needs something to make it. Jordan (Gainford on Three Card Brag) took him along for as long as he could and probably ran a good race in his own right. I was thrilled with Stellar Story. He keeps guessing at his fences and I told Danny (Gilligan) to try and get him around and try to get a bit of confidence into him. He gave him a brilliant ride - probably a bit unlucky. Number one, we had to try and get him around. I'd imagine Brown Advisory for Better Days Ahead and Stellar Story could go Brown Advisory as well. Three Card Brag needed that run to qualify for the Aintree Grand National.

Leopardstown Sun, 2nd Feb, 2025  Backtonormal The step up in trip and niceish ground suited and Conor was very good on him. He’s a good rider.
