Review down royal 4th Feb

Baily View sprung a surprise when getting the better of hot favourite Powerstation in the Bank Of Ireland Business & Retail Hurdle at Down RoyalWed 04th Feb

Power Fails to Baily

Punters ignored the fact that when under the care of Mick Phillips, Powerstation went down by thirteen lengths, to the 2006 Galway Plate hero, Far From Trouble, in the corresponding event at the Maze in 2007 (4/5 then). At odds of 4/7 this time in the Bank Of Ireland Business & Retail Banking Hurdle, Andrew McNamara's mount failed by three lengths to Baily View. Wed 04th Feb

After race at Navan Sat, 10th Dec, 2011 (1st)

he ran well at Clonmel the last day and I knew he was right today. Eventhough he is 11, he is still a fresh little horse and he'll go for the Woodies Christmas Hurdle at Leopardstown over Christmas. He is a stone higher in England so there's no point going over there and he may go back over fences later in the season. He didn't find the ground too bad there - out wide its not too bad.

Eamonn O'Connell

After race at Killarney Mon, 10th May, 2010 (1st)

He got bumped at the first fence and he was shuffled back a bit but Davy [Russell] was always happy and knew he'd loads of horse underneath him. He'll have a little break now and come back for the Galway Plate.

Eamonn O'Connell

After race at Leopardstown Mon, 28th Dec, 2009 (1st)

We'll aim for the Galmoy Hurdle at Navan next. He'll probably go back for the Word Hurdle at Cheltenham he may as well have another go at it. He's been a bit unlucky and he needs to come with a run. Andy gave him a great ride. I would like to thank Edward O'Grady for letting me use his gallop and get the last piece of work into him as my gallop was frozen.

Eamonn O'Connell

After race at Thurles Thu, 23rd Oct, 2008 (1st)

Powerstation won on heavy ground before and got through it again today. Hurdling is a little easier on him than chasing and we may stay over the smaller obstacles next.
