O'Connor Gains Second Pro Winner
He may get a little break or he could turn out again at Christmas, we'll just see how he comes out of it. He should get a bit further on better ground, I felt he didn't get the trip the last day (two miles six on heavy ground).
Murphy/O'Connor Double-Up Without Zaarito
Coast Takes His Chance
We've Colm Murphy (his Zaarito withdrawn owing to ground conditions) to thank for that. This fellow has taken a lot of time and hopefully he is alright after that.
Further Joy for Conways/Dreaper/Lynch
This fellow had a wind op since his last run as he wasn't getting home. This wasn't a great race but at least he got home.
Emmet Mullins Off The Mark as a Pro
Hopefully it's the first of many for Emmet as a pro.
Moskova Makes Up for Savitha
I'm delighted for the owner, Robert Hennelly, whose Savitha was mugged here on Sunday. She was very green early on and she was the same in Thurles the last day. Hopefully she'll learn and get her jumping a bit smarter. We'll probably aim her at some of those mares chases and find something for her over Christmas.
Roberto Impresses on Debut
I got him in October, he was pre-trained by Aidan Fitzgerald. I'm delighted to have had two nice bumper winners in the space of a few days. He could go for a winners bumper but he is a six-year-old and he'll head over hurdles soon. He has the look of a chaser and he'll go over fences next season.
