Gowran Park Tue, 1st Sep, 2026 Quinta Girl It was overdue for Quinta Girl to get her head in front. She's a filly that we liked and thought she'd have won a maiden or something before now. When we saw this race and the conditions of it, we put her in. Reese's 7lb claim was a big help and he said that she's just in a different league.

Cork Sun, 30th Aug, 2026 Bamako Beach He's a horse that we've obviously thought a lot of, given where we've run him,. This was a good race, taking on older horses. Someone asked me this morning was he a 'moral' and I said on his rating, if he runs to his mark, he should be hard to beat. He's a good horse. We have the (Prix de la) Foret in our head for him and there is a Group 3 in a few weeks, called the Prix de Pin, in France. We may go for that or go straight to the Foret. He's still a big baby. He only had one run as a two-year-old and he finds things very easy. He's a bit over enthusiastic and sometimes they can be a bit slow to learn. He couldn't have done that any easier, he's won with plenty in hand. Today is a conditions race but there were no hiding places on paper, taking on older horses. He's gone and done it well with a bit in hand. He's done everything we could have hoped for and we'll take a shot now.
Curragh Sat, 29th Aug, 2026 Push The Boat Out When they win a maiden first time out, they have to jump up to this level. Little bit of greenness there during the middle part of the race. He came off it early, but Seamie got him rolling from halfway. Seamie was very complimentary of him, he said he was a racehorse. We'll get him home and see how he is, but he said he's still a little bit weak. He said he feels like a miler next year. Obviously, he's unbeaten, he's won his Group race and he's beaten the Coventry winner. Seamie mentioned Newmarket, so we'll get him home and let the dust settle. We'll enjoy today.
Naas Mon, 3rd Aug, 2026 Red Evolution We just wanted to get this lad a bit of a confidence booster. He’s been pitched into two high-class handicaps at the Curragh this year,. said O’Callaghan. We felt dropping in grade would help and sticking at six. Dylan was happy with him today. He said he jumped well, travelled and was able to get a tow into the race and hit the line strongly. He felt like that should have helped him plenty confidence-wise and he thought he was probably better than the winning margin. We’ll probably stick to six for now and have a look at the programme book. We’ll see what the handicapper does with him. Last year he looked like a very progressive, and potentially high-class sprinter. Hopefully now we can get him back into that group. Dylan said the stiff six is key to him. There was enough pace early today that he was able to relax and get him into a rhythm.
