Well backed Harrington juvenile wins at Naas

Virtudes shows her true merit

she (Virtudes) was too disappointing the first day as she's been working well and Billy (Lee) just thought the softer ground caught her out. She travelled well and I suppose the experience helped her there today. I would have been very disappointed if she hadn't run well today. It's nice to get a winner in those colours, it's important for me and we'll see now where we go. The other filly, Realt Rua, finished third there for the Irish National Stud, so they are happy as well.

Dali could be Ascot bound

You'd be delighted with that. He came forward from his first run and he'll come forward again,. Ryan liked him and we'll hopefully get another run into him. I think five or six suits him, he has plenty of speed, when he learns what he's at. He was still swapping and changing a good bit so he still doesn't really know. He would have learned plenty today.

Lynam has another Power-packed winner

she looked okay treated off 75 for winning a maiden but my concern before the race was that she didn't know as much as the others, they've been around the block time and time again. Robbie rode a super cool race. In fairness to him when you ask him to do something he always tries to do it, he rides well. When he asked her she answered and he got there in time. It's nice to get off the mark and they are a lucky set of colours (successful with Group 1 winners Sole Power and Slade Power)!

Rehana enters 1,000 Guineas picture

it went to plan - we said we'd keep it simple with her. It probably wasn't ideal to make the running but she doesn't mind as she's straight forward. Ground is important to her and if she gets her ground she'll take her chance in the (Irish) Guineas. She's so genuine that she handles an ease in it but you'd have to say she's at her best on good or quicker even. We'll see how she is come the (Guineas) time. That will do her confidence good. She's had a couple of races against top class fillies and even her comeback run was good. It's amazing at this time of year if the fillies get their head in front it does a lot for their confidence.

Bolger hoping to sell Naas finale winner

we got a bit of luck which you need in those handicaps. He'll be hitting the highway as we have to make room and will get an entry for the July Sales unless some of the jumping fellas come looking for him.
