Quotes on Slane Hill (IRE)
He's a fine big horse, he has plenty of scope and the ground is beautiful out there. He disappointed us in Gowran the last day, but the ground was typical heavy Gowran ground. He won his maiden hurdle in Naas and then ran a nice race in Gowran. He was favourite there the last day, but just got stuck in it. I wasn't sure what way he'd go today, he had schooled great. It was just really to get his confidence back and give him something different to do. He was a bit guessy at a few. He has so much scope that he was kind of getting too brave. Two out he stood outside the wings and then he landed on his head. I'd say it knocked the stuffing out of him, he went from travelling really well to having to chase after him. He seems to handle that ground lovely, and country tracks, so we'll keep him on the go. He'll be a novice until November now. He won half a length there, so I suppose he (handicapper) can't be too hard on him. It was an ordinary race, although Clondaw Hollow had some good back form. It's nice to get the job done anyway.

Quotes on Ad Caelum (IRE)
I was sick that she didn't get into a Listed hurdle at Galway, as she was second reserve and the first reserve got it. She is high class and progressive. I didn't break her until she was a five-year-old so she is seriously progressive and has a great pedigree.'

Quotes on Ceanndana (IRE)
They are a great bunch of lads and to be honest with you, they have been waiting a while. The horse is good in this grade and he has been knocking on the door, he deserved to get one. It was great that it happened today and Keith gave him a great ride. He handled the ground really well, wants good ground. He's in his bracket. A couple of times he has been found kind of wanting, just got lonely in front one day and just little small reasons for getting beaten. He's no star, but 0-95 is his grade. Horses are flying, thank God. Whatever suits will go to Galway and we will be there, hopefully.

Quotes on Digby (IRE)
Richie said he is a grand horse, is still a bit raw and said they went a good gallop. He said he knew from the bottom of the straight he had them covered and he stays going well, we thought that ourselves after his Sligo win. Winter ground is an unknown but has been running on quick ground and that's the softest ground he has run on yet. He has been on the go a while but we'll see what the boss man (owner Pat Conway) wants to do. He'll jump fences next year.

Quotes on Faceman (IRE)
We think he'll get better in time. I think he is still only a shell of a horse. I'm delighted and very grateful to the lads for sending me a nice quality horse like him. Everything happened kind of wrong for him today, he ran off the bend and missed the last, but he is tough. He is growing mad and he'll improve, but time will tell. John (Bowe) always picks out the races and once he is happy, I'm happy.

Quotes on Mystic Malina (IRE)
She struggled in Naas the last day and Phillip just pulled her up in time. He said that was the saving of her today. He looked after her. She needs nice ground and she put up a nice performance there. From a long way out I thought she was travelling and jumping very well, she was really enjoying it. It was an ordinary race she won in Clonmel and we were a bit disappointed in Naas but in fairness Phillip said ‘don’t worry about it’ as she needs a bit of nice ground. I have to give him the credit. I might go to Fairyhouse with her, there is a three-mile novice handicap there and she might get into that now. She hasn’t ran that often. That’s only her fourth run over hurdles and she’s won two races now.

Quotes on Zam Bobbler (IRE)
In Listowel the first day he ran a bit keen and gassy. The second day he was much more professional. I'd say he found around here a bit tighter today. His jumping hasn't been brilliant, as was the case today. He is just a huge big unit, a big baby. I had spotted this race a while back, being part of the William Hill series and I sort of kept him in mind for it. It's nice when a plan works out. He has hugely supportive owners. Back at Christmas he wasn't 100% sound for a while and we couldn't really find what was wrong. I told the lads that he was just big and backward and to give me time with him, so they've been hugely patient. They are great owners, so it's great to get a winner for them.
