Chesapeake makes all in Killarney opener

It was important she won as she is a half-sister to Frozen Fire who won the Irish Derby. We'll chat to the owners to see whether or not she'll run again and we'll see if there are any races over 1m 4f for her coming up. It's good she has won today and that is mission accomplished.

Ambition has 'big future' after Killarney success

We've always liked this fella - he is a big strapping horse and we gave him plenty time,. He is related to a lot of good horses and I can't wait to run him in Stakes races. He has a big future and we always said we'd wait with him to fill up his frame. We'll probably go back in trip to a mile or 1m 2f in a Stakes race next. Robbie thought he was a bit green still but I was impressed he could quicken off that pace.

Lakemilan lands another valuable Killarney prize

She ran at Bellewstown in a race which was a qualifier for the Galway Hurdle but that didn't work out and we were well beaten on the day. I don't know for what reason but she didn't travel and never got into it. She runs well around here and she seemed fresh enough so we left her take her chance here. Kevin said he felt he was going to win the whole way. We messed it up a few times with her by getting caught in behind and then going out in front but this time it was a peach of a ride. We'll come back here again in August.

Hayes hit with 14 day suspension as Island Master scores for Burke

he (winning jockey Darragh O'Keeffe) gave him a super ride even though he was done three out but it was just a rough race. He is better with a good break between his runs and I've made the mistake of running him back quick a few times and it took me a long time to figure it out. We'll try and squeeze another one out of him and he cant get too much for winning that.
