Quotes on Let's Go Mans (FR)
He had the run in the point-to-point the last day and he’s a real stayer. Keith gave him a great ride and being switched inside was probably the difference between winning and losing. He’s a work in progress, but hopefully he can progress from here and maybe he’ll win another one. We’ll get him back home and, if he’s sound, he’ll be out for something similar before too long. He’s lowly enough rated but hopefully he’ll be able to progress.

Quotes on Soldante (IRE)
he had one go at the favourite although Eoin (Walsh, winning jockey) felt he struggled a bit on the ground. He felt it was heavy enough for him. He'd see out the two miles well and that was a big help to him today, he is probably a 2m4f horse really. I wasn't too happy when they omitted the two hurdles because essentially he is a jumper and those hurdles would have been to his benefit but he got away with it and we are delighted with that performance. Eoin just wasn't over happy with the way he travelled on that ground but he showed plenty of resolution to get the job done. His bumper form was strong - he didn't win one and was just a bit unlucky a couple of times. It's grand to win a hurdle.

Quotes on Tell Us This (IRE)
He did (handle the quickish ground well), he moved away great on it. I'd have to see it again, but he got a lovely run up the inner and maybe got there a little too soon, but stayed going all the way to the line. He had been a long time trying to get his head in front, he was demoted in Down Royal. He deserves it. I'm delighted for them (Old School Syndicate), they have stuck with him. That's Eoin's second winner for us, he's with us a couple of months. He's great value for the 7lb, I think he is a good lad.

Quotes on Youlita (IRE)
A bit of heat exhaustion I'd say. He made heavy enough weather of it. He said he was having a look as well. He wasn't doing him any favours and he (Philip Byrnes) had to get stuck into him. It looked to be only a two-horse race and I'm a bit disappointed he didn't go on and do it.
