Praise for Roche in opener
We thought she would run well after her run at Gowran Park she was very fresh after it. We just wondered whether she'd get the mile but her Dam won over a mile and two in France. She won easy enough and she's a very progressive tough filly.
Flynn Lucky Down South
We were hoping he'd run well but we didn't think he'd win. I hope he runs just as well next time out. I used to train his mother and she was from an ordinary enough family but he seems to have a bit more talent. We will stick to three year old handicaps and see how far he goes.
Murphy completes Killarney double
That was great, he's very progressive. Everything that could go wrong at Ascot did. He's tough and improving every month, he has a beautiful attitude and travels well and quickens well off the pace. He got a good ride tonight and we've no plans for him. Danny [Grant] thought he'd progress into a Listed or Group 3 type horse. He's a big horse and Danny said not to race him too often.
Gilligan & Hillingdon back in the Winners Enclosure
It's nice to be back in the winner's enclosure and it's great to get the win out of her. I have no real plans for her. She's very tough and she just does enough when she's in front.
Curragh Grey score for Neville
That was badly wanted, the horses have been sick and I lost a couple of owners too. We'll look for something much the same over three miles. We fancied her today she had some good form and she was sick the last day. I just hope the handicapper won't be too hard on her.
Anoosou takes last for Doyle
He's a bit of enigma and he can be temperamental. We've always thought a lot of him, he fell the last day at Wexford and we've just taken our time with him.
