Mister Carter survives last flight scare

He was idling when he got to the front and Billy said they were only racing over the last two hurdles. He was a bit long at the last but anyway he didn't fall and there'll be another day for him. We're lucky to be racing after the dreadful weather and they've done a good job here. It's a pity the owner (David Slater) who is from Newcastle in England couldn't be here. With the uncertainty over racing he didn't come.

Game Sunbird too strong for Out Now

She deserved that. People were saying that her jumping was letting her down. The problem was that she was too careful over her hurdles and she was over-jumping them . it was like she was jumping fences. She was very good today and got a very good ride. She is game and she is tough and we won't hang around with her over hurdles for too much longer. We'll look at a three mile hurdle next - that's what she probably wants.

Ardglen sees it out best for Hanlon & Cullen

Gentle Alice impresses at Limerick

She came on from her last run (an unlucky fourth at Thurles). She won a point-to-point and her maiden hurdle at Thurles. Chasing was always going to be her game. I'm not sure where we'll go now but there is a listed mares chase in Thurles at the end of January and she might go there.

Hogan on the mark with Drive On Jim

He came to life lately and his wind was very good today. He was nicely enough handicapped but he is even better handicapped over hurdles (90 over fences and 84 over flights) and he'll probably go back for a hurdle now. He won a handicap hurdle around here before.

Castle Wings wins for Mangan & Walsh

He'll probably go for another bumper now.
