After race at Tramore Sun, 18th Aug, 2024 (1st)

We're delighted with that. She loves it here - I don't know what it is, maybe it's the seaside air, she's used to that at home. Just looking at the paper the other day and we had the best strike rate after Willie Mullins coming down here this weekend. We'll probably head to Bellewstown now in a fortnight's time for another handicap hurdle, it's very hard to get chases to suit her. We might bring her to the strand at Laytown after that.

Alan Delany, representing E D Delany

After race at Tramore Fri, 31st May, 2024 (1st)

She was second in this race last year and won it the year before, so she likes this race. We were still a couple of pounds out of the handicap but she really turned inside out the last week and we said we would take our chance. She likes fast ground and being in front. Jordan gets on really well with her. We were on the cold list so it's nice to get off it now. Hopefully it's onwards and upwards for the rest of the summer. We have a couple of young horses to run and a few for Bellewstown. We will keep her going now for the summer. She has won on the flat, over hurdles and over fences and she might do all three again this year. She has very sporting owners in David and Margaret Jordan and it's great for them.

Alan Delany, representing E D Delany

After race at Bellewstown Tue, 23rd Aug, 2022 (1st)

It is a local meeting, we are five miles away. We go back 100 years or more getting winners here. We'll be back for the next meeting here anyway!. Putting her over fences has put a bit of life into her and she's a good jumper. We put the cheekpieces back on today and we thought she was well-enough handicapped. Jordan said he hit the front far too soon but it was a slow pace and she was going so well.

E D Delany

After race at Ballinrobe Mon, 22nd Jul, 2019 (1st)

She's been knocking on the door against some good fillies,. Kevin said by the way she stayed there that she could maybe go a mile and a quarter. The little bit of ease in the ground was a help.
