W P Mullins quotes on Al Boum Photo (FR)

He deserved that as he was unlucky at Christmas and David gave him a great ride and kept a little bit up his sleeve. It’s nice to get a good winner for Mrs Donnelly. I think he wants a longer trip and that’s why he was staying on at the end. I think the first four will all be three-mile chasers down the line.

Gordon Elliott quotes on Dounikos (FR)

I had the other horse (Al Boum Photo) covered going down to the last; I was flying and he was such a good leaper, he gains two or three lengths at every fence. He's an outsider but when you're riding for Gordon that doesn't really matter. He jumped and travelled like a winner everywhere and quickened down to the second last and the last and had plenty left. That's my biggest winner; I previously won a few big handicap hurdles but that is my first Graded win. That's my second winner for Gordon and I ride out once a week. I've been riding out for the last six months and said I may as well join the queue!

C L Tizzard quotes on Finian's Oscar (IRE)

He was always just in touch. He raced lazily. Initially, I'd think Punchestown is next. I don't think we're finished this year as he hasn't raced much. If he comes out of this OK I'm sure he'll have that option. He's a strong stayer and he's maybe a Hennessy (Newbury) horse (next season). He's a lovely horse.

W P Mullins quotes on Invitation Only (IRE)

He was very impressive and jumped great. He might be back to what we thought he could have been two years ago. His jumping is his forte. He could go three miles, whether that will be Christmas or later, we'll have to see if Christmas comes too soon.

Gordon Elliott quotes on Jury Duty (IRE)

That was obviously a bit special as Ciaran (Collins) one of the boys that owns the horse is very sick in hospital and they're not sure if he'll even get through the night,. Hopefully he' was able to listen to the race and it'll give him a bit of a lift. He went to school with Robert Power and was really good friends with him. It was a great day for him to win. It's rough for the boys and on his family. He's from Moynalvey and the boys have been with me almost from when I started training. They had a lot of bad ones and a few alright ones but this lad is probably the best we've had. To be honest I didn't care about the result once I won it but I was cheering for the winner. He missed a bit of time before the Cork race and we knew he was fitter today. That was his Gold Cup and if he never wins again it doesn't matter. He's not a bad horse and could be an Irish National horse.

Henry De Bromhead quotes on Monalee (IRE)

I'm, absolutely delighted. He jumped brilliant and Noel was fantastic on him. Davy (Russell) couldn’t commit with Cheltenham in mind so Noel stepped in and we’ll rock on to Cheltenham now. He's some horse and it has been fantastic to get him here and I have to say it's a credit to everyone at home and there's a great team behind him and I'm delighted to get him back. We'll speak to the owners but the RSA (Chase) would be the obvious race for him at Cheltenham. It's brilliant for Noel as well.

Gordon Elliott quotes on Monbeg Notorious (IRE)

it's brilliant and it's nice to win it. I think we've won nearly all the big staying chases in Ireland now. It was his first run in handicap, so it was a bit of a worry, but it's worked out great. He's a big galloper but he's a bit of a character at home and doesn't do anything too fancy. He just loves that soft ground and jumped and galloped them into the ground. The problem in his beginners chases is that he was having to do all his own donkey work and he's lairy in front whereas today we had something to aim at and it worked out great. He jumped fences like they were on fire at Punchestown the last day!. in fairness to the farmers (Doyles in Co Wexford) they recommended him to us and it's great for Jack, for me and for Gigginstown and for the horse. Jack was brilliant again and gave him a great ride.

W P Mullins quotes on Rathvinden (IRE)

I've just spoken to the vet and he said he's fine, just exhausted. He felt it was safer to take him back to the stables than the razzmatazz of the paddock. They'll just throw lots of water on him. He's taking the odd step, then a wobble. I imagine any athlete after four miles would be a little tired.

Gordon Elliott quotes on The Storyteller (IRE)

Davy gave the horse a peach. He was my nap of the meeting last year in the Martin Pipe, but he went wrong so it's brilliant. The horse was great. I'm absolutely thrilled.

Gordon Elliott quotes on Shattered Love (IRE)

She's a big honest mare. She handled that better ground way better than I thought she would. Mark said she loved it and jumped from fence to fence. She was a little bit fortunate as there were a few fallers but that's just the game. She galloped the whole way to the line. We're lucky we've got a few nice horse at the minute so we're delighted. Jury Duty ran well in second as well. We'll have to have a think about it and see where she goes now. She's got plenty of different options. She handles that ground well, she jumps and she stays. She's a nice one to have.

Denis Gerard Hogan quotes on Youcantcallherthat (IRE)

she's improving all the time but I thought it was going to be hard today giving 8lb and back in trip on tacky ground. She didn't travel great but from three out I knew nothing else was going real well either. She's a dream mare and after the last day we said we'd go for one more mares race and put her away for a bit. The boys live very close to Ballybrit (Galway) but the ground might be a bit good there but she'd love the track and the trip in the Galway Plate. We'll see what the handicapper does and I think she's 87 over hurdles so we'll try and exploit that somewhere and she should be able to scrape home off that!. Things couldn't be better and I'm really enjoying it. I have a great bunch of staff to work with and great owners. I really love the job and hopefully it'll keep going the way it's going.
