Fiuntach off the mark in Wexford

Eddystone Rock proves strongest

The rain was probably a help to him. We weren't sure about stepping him up in trip and Donnacha took his time on him. Obviously he got the trip and he'll probably get a mile-and-a-quarter. He's gone up 10lb and just won so hopefully the handicapper is not too hard on him. He's improved since last season and we always thought that when he got a little ease in the ground there was a little bit more improvement. He might jump a hurdle in time.

Zilbiyr grinds it out in Wexford

. The first day he was second he met a good one of Harrington's and against the O'Brien horse we rode him all wrong. The last day they sprinted and that didn't suit him as he wants a good gallop. He was on his head the whole way today but stuck at it. I'm glad he's won and he'll be okay with a pair of blinkers. He was very leery there and pricked his ears the whole way up the straight. He also jumped the road. He'll be better with a good gallop on a better track and a pair of blinds will also bring about improvement.

He's tough — a cracking fun horse,. He'll probably go hurdling later in the summer.

Hogan back in the winning groove

She deserved that as the last day in Limerick she had no luck and had a bad run around. Seamie was good on her today. She's a beautifully-bred filly as she's by Canford Cliffs out of a Galileo mare. We picked her up at the Goresbridge breeze-up and she took time to come to herself. Hopefully she can go on from this. It might not have been the strongest race but in saying that when the reserve got in and there was a few quid for him I was worried. That's probably as soft as she'd like it. She's a good, tough, staying filly. Hopefully the horses are improving. That's my first winner in a while and I had one or two horses coughing. When they are off peak it's hard work for everyone. This is great for connections also. They are famous colours and of course won a Grand National a few years back with Bobbyjo.

Deor hacks up in Wexford

At last. We thought we had a right horse the first day he ran but things just went wrong. His best run was at Galway. He's always shown ability. We'll stay as we are at the minute and he'll probably go over hurdles then. He's a very versatile horse and should give us a good bit of fun. The owner has been good and patient all along.
