An impressive round of jumping put the gloss on Sizing Rio’s performance in the Grade 3 novice chase in Cork. Sun 03rd Nov

Review tipperary 8th Oct

Mick Winters was one of the men in form at Tipperary as the County Cork handler saddled a double through Jansboy and Moon Prince to follow up the resounding success of Rebel Fitz at the track on SaturdayTue 08th Oct

Darroun gives Mullins and Walsh a double

Darroun mightn't have delighted Ruby Walsh or indeed favourite backers when getting a wake-up call after the last with a circuit to go but it was ultimately easy for the grey in the www.tippearyraces.ie Beginners Chase. Tue 08th Oct

Review ballinrobe 27th Aug

In-form trainer Tony Martin picked up another decent prize when the versatile Pires grabbed the lead close home to take the feature Water Towers Chase at BallinrobeTue 27th Aug

Two for Townend as Heaney delivers

Heaney was hammered into 11/8 favouritism for the concluding Ballinrobe On Course Vets Beginners Chase and he delivered to credit rider Paul Townend with a double (earlier on the mark aboard Pires). Tue 27th Aug

Review ballinrobe 23rd Jul

A thrilling finish to Ballinrobe's McHale Engineering Hurdle saw Darroun record a last-gasp victory for Willie Mullins and Ruby WalshTue 23rd Jul

Darroun wins but only just

Robbie Dunne's effort on Aranhill Chief in the McHale Engineering Hurdle deserved more, but bigger names than the Dubliner have come up short against Ruby Walsh in a finish and favourite backers have the multiple champion to thank for Darroun's win at Ballinrobe. Tue 23rd Jul

Chris Hayes doubled up in the last at Limerick (won the second on The Organ Grinder), the www.limerickraces.ie Handicap, as Abou Ben fended off the challenge of Clara Bel La. Sat 15th Jun

Double for Davy as Disco delivers

Review ballinrobe 28th May

Review leopardstown 28th Jan

Jessica Harrington hit the jackpot when the lightly weighted Citizenship took the feature Boylesports.com Hurdle at Leopardstown under Robbie PowerSat 28th Jan

Sir Des Champs progressing beautifully

Sir Des Champs 'missed' the last a little bit but he still found what was required on the run-in to beat the fellow Gigginstown House Stud-owned runner Fists Of Fury and his big market rival Hidden Cyclone in the Grade 2 Boylesports.com Bet On Your Mobile Novice Chase at Leopardstown. The successful French-bred remains unbeaten in the National Hunt sphere and he was bringing up a treble here for Willie Mullins, victorious in the first couple of races with Darroun and Aupcharlie. Sat 28th Jan

Charlie makes it two for Willie

He may have looked a bit vulnerable going to the last but the step-up to two and a half miles done Aupcharlie the world of good. The son of Daliapour stayed on really well under Andrew Lynch from the back of the last where Whispering Hills wasn't as fluent. Aupcharlie then crossed the line three and a quarter lengths to the good from Whispering Hills in the I.T.B.A. Expo 2012 Maiden Hurdle at Leopardstown. Sat 28th Jan

Darroun Triumph bound

The betting said that the Leopardstown.com Maiden Hurdle was a match between Darroun and Hisaabaat and so it proved out on the track too with the former edging things by a length and a quarter under Paul Townend. Sat 28th Jan

Review punchestown 31st Dec

Mikael D'Haguenet made it two wins on the bounce with a bloodless display in the Follow Punchestown On Facebook Hurdle at the County Kildare trackSat 31st Dec

Gamble landed by Shadow Catcher

Shadow Catcher landed a gamble on debut in the two mile maiden hurdle at Punchestown with Paul Carberry in the saddle for trainer Gordon Elliott. Sat 31st Dec

After race at Leopardstown Sat, 28th Jan, 2012 (1st)

Better ground suits and he's improving all the time. He'll jump a fence in time. Paul really got him jumping today and he seems to be more confident jumping on better ground. He'll go for the Triumph. Paul said he appeared to lose his action a bit turning in but he seems to be okay.
