Good To Follow proves well-named
Long denies Katla a famous success
He is a good genuine little horse. The ease in the ground was a help and he battled well. The ease in the ground should also help the horse in the last, Tashqeel.
Pathfork takes the National Stakes
Fran said he had to be really tough and that he didn't really like the ground. Pure class got him there in the end and it's just fantastic. I felt sick beforehand and my panic during the race was that he was in front for so long. I'm going to the sales at Keeneland in the morning and I'll make plans with the owners then. He did have a very hard race there.
Well-backed Sans lands the Leger
Fogarty strikes on the Admiral again
He is much improved this summer. He keeps improving and we're delighted with him. He'll probably go for the Cesarewitch now (at Newmarket on October 16th). Another 4Ibs for that will put him on 8st 9Ib. Chris Hayes will ride him and he'll go there with a live chance I hope.
Harriers answers O'Brien's call
The ground was a big help. Where we go next I haven't worked out. It could be back here or we might take her to Naas for a Listed race.
O'Brien doubles up on well-backed Oracle
I think that leaves me six or seven behind in the apprentice table and it's the second double of my career.
