Hughes/Loughran take opener at Naas
Jayo scores for Mullins
His jumping was electric. I'm sure he's Arkle bound after that. We'll possibly go for The Arkle at Leopardstown and Cheltenham but we'll have to look at the timing and I don't think the ground will be too important.
Mullins/Walsh record double
I'm delighted with how he jumped and quickened when he had to. I'm very pleased and have no real plans for him. If I can find a nice race for him in February I'll run him but I'm very lucky to have a few nice horses and I don't want them to clash just yet. The Deloitte And Touche Novice Hurdle Grade 1 is an obvious choice for him but I also have to consider Hurricane Fly for that. As regards Cheltenham if the ground comes up quick we probably won't bring him.
Ebadiyan impresses at Naas
He is a good horse, he was the cheapest of the John Oxx horses at the Goffs Sales. He was certainly the bargain horse. The further he goes the better he goes. He is my ticket across the water. We will put him away now and he might have one more run before he goes to Cheltenham.
