Brook On Fifth set for stakes company

I think Joseph (O'Brien) liked her. It's hard to know how good they are but at the same time when there are that many runners they can't all be useless. She was good. She was still a little bit green when I got there, hanging a little bit both ways, so I think there is a bit of improvement in her but she definitely has talent and I think she's a smart filly. She did it smartly and pricked her ears towards the line. I think you'd have to look at stakes company with her now. Going to those black-type races you will learn more from there, that's definitely the next step.

O'Brien completes quick double with Chrysalism

Millisle comes home best under Foley

That's great. She did everything so easy in Bellewstown and, in Down Royal, when she got into a bit of a battle she'd never done it before. The horse leaning up against her, and everything, stood to her today. I didn't like the draw we had (in seven) but she coped with it. They all jumped well in front of her and they all went so he had to sit and wait. I thought she was never going to get there and then she won half a length. It's lovely to get it for Francis Jennings. She's from an old family of his and is the last filly out of that mare (Green Castle). It's very important for them and she's worth keeping now for breeding.

Southern France stamps his class on Leger trial

O'Brien seals Curragh treble through Buckhurst

He's very tough and tries his heart out,. I probably committed him a little bit early and he got a little bit lonely in front but when the Harrington horse came to me he found again. I thought I'd get to make the running but Kevin's horse seemed to be keen so he went on and I was happy just to take my horse to his outside and get a lead off him for a bit longer. I was always going to be forward and keep it simple. Once the runner-up came to me my horse found a little bit more, he was probably getting a little bit idle in front.

Pride comes good for Lavery

He's a gorgeous horse, home-bred, and he's just needed a bit of time to strengthen up,. The girls were giving out to Robbie for giving him a bad ride. They said he kicked too soon. He was just laughing at them. We knew he stayed and he just decided to keep it uncomplicated. I think the horse like the bit of space because I don't think he liked it the race day when they all surrounded him. He's still very green, he's quite lightly raced. This was brilliant because it wasn't in the schedule but they just put it in. It was like manna from heaven when I saw it. As I entered him I thought 'Robbie will jump out in front and make all'. So he just did what I thought when I entered him. He's a bit of an idiot to do things with at the races but he was better today. He got very upset in the stalls the last day and tried to climb out. Robbie got permission to go in late today. Hopefully he'll just keep improving.

Acari delights Caldwell in Curragh

We're delighted with that,. We ran him in Tipperary on yielding ground but it was my fault that day as we got the tactics wrong and he got there too soon. We ran in Gowran, where he had won the year before on good ground, and Chris (Hayes) came in and said there was something wrong as he just wasn't travelling and didn't go a yard. I took him home, brought him to Leopardstown on good to firm ground and Chris said he wasn't letting himself down. I took him home, got him checked over and there was nothing wrong with him. I rang his owner and just said he might need yielding to soft ground so we'll just have to bide our time and wait. Thankfully it worked out and he is where he is today. As long as it keeps raining we'll be happy!
