Maxim keeps up good work for connections

My brother Ben just texted me there to say we'll have to start bottling that water (a new source after problems with a contaminated well). He got some peach of a ride considering he didn't even jump that well . he left his hind legs in a few of them. He's a horse with loads of ability and he's got some pedigree. He's out of a half-sister to Galileo. He's on the list for Doncaster (sales) but whether he goes or not now I don't know,.

Job Fit to emulate his brother

Like his brother last year he liked the ease in the ground. He did it quite well. He was a bit raw when he was asked to go forward,.

Chief making Ballybrit his own

It was the biggest decision I've ever had with a horse . whether to run again or not. If he hadn't won today they'd all be asking why did I pull him out again. He had a swim this morning to loosen him out. I said after he won over hurdles in Bellewstown that he could be a Galway Plate horse some day and hopefully that's what he'll be. There was a lot of carnage in the race and I hope all the horses and jockeys are okay.

Lady gets compo under local lad Roche

She's tough and hardy though the ground probably wasn't ideal. She was very unlucky here the other night as she got no run through the race. It was nice to get that . she deserved it. She's hard to settle and we said that if she pulled we'd let her stride on.
