Decrypt learns a lot from debut to win on 2nd start

He was green the first day and learned a lot from it,. He jumped out of the gate today, but was still a little bit raw during the race and will probably improve from it again. I'm thrilled that he went and did it. He's tough and he's a horse to look forward to for the rest of the year. It's not my intention to go to Royal Ascot. The Railway or the July Stakes at Newmarket or something like that would be what I have in mind for him.

Shore ready to Step back up the ranks

I was reading the card beforehand and it said 'was a solid handicapper at one stage' so I didn't know what I was doing with him,. It just hadn't fallen right for him all year, and the last couple of years, but we've always thought he was capable of much better than he was showing. He works well at home but he just hasn't got it together on the track but he did today. His good runs in England were on good tracks so maybe he likes good tracks but it's just hard to get races for him on these better tracks. He's won now and hopefully can move up the ranks because at one stage he was rated a lot better than he is today. He's a good horse to have at home. He works with the two-year-olds and gives you a good guide on how you are getting on. Hopefully he pays his way now between now and the end of the year. I think that's a good trip for him and it looks like he gets seven. Valerie Keatley, the head girl, rides him the whole time and says he'll have no problem getting seven. He breaks quick, had got good early speed, and he toughs it out on the front rank so six is ideal.

Marnane has big prizes in mind now for Alfredo

He's always had the potential to be a nice horse. He did well to do what he did up at Dundalk as a three-year-old,.

Fancy that - Silver Stakes goes to 1,000 Guineas headline makers

She deserved that as she was knocking on the door all last year,. People were saying does she really stay a mile-and-a-quarter but she won that by staying. She was very very good. She's in various races and I've just been running her in every race. She handles any ground, she goes on soft and goes on everything. Jim (Nicholson) isn't here today as he's in Portugal, and Homer (Scott), who owns half of her, isn't here because he hasn't been very well. We'll put her in all those mile and mile-and-a-quarter races.

Hayes gets the best out of Alcatraz

Two miles no problem for Jan

Irish Derby now for Latrobe

He was entitled to go and do that and you'd have to be very happy with him,. The only thing was that he got a little bit upset in the gates, but other than that it was fairly smooth. He'll go on to the Irish Derby now all being well. He ran very well here in the Gallinule and going 12 furlongs today he won nicely. He went a nice gallop there and Donnacha gave him a nice uncomplicated ride. He has no problem going 12 and holding him up he should probably get a bit further if we ever have to. He's a nice horse, we've always liked him and he hasn't let us down yet. I think he's versatile ground-wise. He was just beat in Naas and the form with Hunting Horn has worked out quite well, that was our first run of the year. Then he came back here on better ground and it's obviously quick today so I'd say he's versatile ground-wise.
