What a night for Ryan as the farmer lands a brace

Archie on target for the National after game success

Obviously he looked well-treated over hurdles. We ran him to see if he'd handle the track with the idea of going for the Midlands National here. Barry said the track wasn't ideal and that he tended to go a bit left. We'll probably ignore him and go for it anyway. There aren't many options for him over fences with the Galway Plate being another option.

Tom Horn going the right way

He stays the three miles very well. He's a very spooky horse though, he's afraid of everything, even the winning-post going by it. I had been a little bit disappointed with some of his runs and that good ground is probably a big help to him. I'm not sure now if we'll stay hurdling with him or go chasing. He's brilliant over fences and we may go chasing with him in the near future. The owner is a real nice fella!

Beans Spill leaves Casey on Top

He knew his job jumping and jumped well. Carberry gave him a great old spin but the other horse making a mistake at the last was a fair help. He loves that old ground and he'll keep going for the summer. He'll probably come back here or go to the likes of Killarney.

Keoghs realising his potential at Kilbeggan

Cullen & King a match made in heaven

That was a good performance for a novice and he jumped brilliant. It was his jumping that won it for him. He'll go for a two mile six novice at Galway and looking down the road I think he could be an Irish National horse.
