FormscanBy Michael Graham - SHAWAAMEKH probably wants a bit further, but is a credit to connections and there was a lot to like about his seasonal reappearance in the Curragh. He found only one horse too good in that big field over 7f and plenty of cut in the ground is ideal for Johnny Levins' charge. Ramiro's third place in a higher grade at the Curragh entitles him to respect and he is a former course winner, while Pinar Del Rio has done little wrong this season in banking a runner-up berth and victory at the Curragh. Levins also saddles Nordic Passage who is dropping down the weights to an attractive mark.

Quotes on Shawaamekh (GB)
I got him on the recommendation of Declan Carroll and David Nolan (jockey) as his owner was replacing him with yearlings and thankfully he gave me a call and I've loved him since the day he came in the yard,. He is a lovely big strong brute of a horse and ran well in all his races for Declan last year when he had a few unlucky stories. Declan rang this morning and gave Donagh the instructions so I had no real part in it!. I'd love to find something in York for him if he continues to go the right way as he has run well there in the past. There is a good bunch of lads involved, Ross Howard, John O'Riordan, Tom Lynch and Jason McGannon so I'm delighted to get a winner for them.After Shawaamekh (GB) finished 1st at Cork on Wed, 18th May 2022 7f Flat Hcap Yielding to Soft

Quotes on Rathbranchurch (IRE)
He's been second four times this year. The owners are local so I'm delighted for them as they stuck with the horse all year, it's great to get a win with him,. We made a mistake as I thought he might get the seven in Fairyhouse, as it's a handy seven, but he doesn't seem to get that trip. This trip here is ideal for him. He's entered at the Curragh on Saturday and we might have to go again. Wesley is well worth his claim, I reckon he's the best apprentice in the country. Things just didn't work out for him, but they are now. There is a long road to go yet, but he's probably getting a bit more firepower now with Johnny (Murtagh) than when he was with me. He puts a lot of work in. That's 15 on the board for me this season and they are all newish horses. Hopefully we can keep it going.After Rathbranchurch (IRE) finished 1st at Navan on Wed, 4th Oct 2023 5f Flat Hcap Yielding to Soft

Quotes on Nordic Passage (IRE)
That was brilliant. It was very unfortunate last week the way the Scurry panned out, unfortunately the high draw for him was a very bad draw as he was left upsides in front and ran with the choke out,. He's learning about sprinting, and we were adamant about dropping him back to five. I told Donagh going out 'you're on the best horse, give him an amount of time and see if he can quicken from the two pole to line. If he wins doing that then we are right in what we thought'. He did that and was half speeding. Donagh was very confident on him. I'm looking forward to him next year. I think I might work back from the Wokingham him.After Nordic Passage (IRE) finished 1st at Curragh on Sun, 26th Jul 2020 5f Flat Hcap Good to Yielding

Quotes on Linger For Longer (IRE)
She was second reserve and was meant to run tomorrow but I got a phone call at 10.57am (three minutes before the deadline) to say there were two non-runners. . Billy Lee was the obvious rider as his horse didn't run and instead of going two-and-a-half hours to Gowran Park, it only took half-an-hour travelling here!. It has been a great day as Susan's 11 year old daughter Lucia (Keane, grand daughter) won an international show-jumping competition at Chepstow today, beating teams from England and Scotland.After Linger For Longer (IRE) finished 1st at Cork on Fri, 28th Jul 2023 6f Flat Hcap Good

Quotes on Sunset Nova (IRE)
He was probably a bit unlucky the last day. Funny enough for a horse around here, he likes to be drawn wide. Being drawn one here the last day didn't suit him - the wider, the better!. Declan was very strong on him. He rode a lot of winners for me early on when I was starting off and we had a great combination. He said to me there, 'it's a pity you had a son!'After Sunset Nova (IRE) finished 1st at Dundalk on Wed, 20th Dec 2023 7f Flat Hcap Standard
