Great start for Attrition's brother
Smooth for Babe at Limerick
I was a little concerned about the ground . the lads say it's very deep. I'm not sure if there's any such thing as an easy race on that ground but she was entitled to win like that.
Gold gives Taaffe across-the-card double
I like him. He's a very athletic and agile horse. Ideally he wants good or yielding ground but I ran him because he was the best horse in the race and thought he might get away with it. He jumps great - I won't aim him at anything exotic though. He'll run again in five or six weeks time. Then I'll put him away before going chasing next season. He has a gorgeous staying pedigree.
Whiskey gives Walsh another Limerick win
he stayed on well in the ground and jumped well. He won at Clonmel the last day but before that was unlucky when he fell on the Flat here over Christmas when we fancied him. We'll go for another handicap next.
Purcell and Cleary strike again
Two in a row for Nouveau at Limerick
She's a lovely, gorgeous mare and she was working lovely at home. I might give her a spin on the flat or else maybe go hurdling. I'll have to speak to her owner (his father James who is 95).
