Quotes on Big Gossey (IRE)

I wasn’t really expecting that. Coming here last year I thought he had a good chance, but today I thought there were a few in there that probably had a bit more class than him, but you can’t beat honesty. The longer I hang around this game, attitude is more important than an awful lot of things. If you look at his program for the last seven or eight years, it’s going to be pretty much the same!. He couldn’t be any easier to deal with at this stage, he’s an old pro.

Quotes on Dmaniac (GB)

Dmaniac loves that ground, wants it pure bottomless and today was his Gold Cup, so we had to have him right. I told Wayne not to come back in if he didn’t win! I couldn’t see him being beaten, as with the ground and the light weight, everything lined up. There is a window with him on the soft ground and while I’d love to run him in the Scurry (Handicap), the ground will probably be too fast for him. He’ll run next week if there is something for him because it’ll dry up soon and he then could be off for four months. We had been praying for rain. He’s been a pleasure to train, there has never been an ounce of trouble with him and you want those type of horses. Wayne also said we could go back to five (furlongs) on that ground.

Quotes on King Cuan (GB)

Going to the Curragh I thought he'd run a big race and things didn't happen right that day. I gave him time to mature and to fill his frame and he confirmed today what he did in May. I think he enjoyed it and he is a quick horse. We are lucky to have some nice two-year-olds and I'd rate him with them. There is a €100,000 race (Goffs Sportsman's Challenge) next weekend at Naas for him and his owners are mostly Naas-based.

Quotes on Loughrea (IRE)

We thought he was very well handicapped at 91. Sure, you don't know until you try. You only think these things, but they don't always work out. I have him in Champions Weekend in the Northfields, but he'll probably come here for the Concorde now. Dropping him back to seven (furlongs) won't be a problem. He'll be rated 100 anyway, so I suppose handicaps are out. It's only his sixth run. His first run in Leopardstown last year, he was as green as grass. I only had him about two months. John was doing him himself at home and sent him on. He just done nothing but improve. He only won by half-a-length at Leopardstown the last day, but he could have won four. It was a comfortable half-length, an easy watch.

Quotes on Lewis Carroll (IRE)

We’re delighted. Ryan liked him, he said the seven (furlongs) was no problem and he handled the ease in the ground. He disappointed us last year, we thought that he was better and maybe he was a bit weak. He was very happy with him.

Quotes on Sindagan (IRE)

With his rating alone, he had a great chance and he has been consistent all year. He ran into a very good horse the last day, when he finished seven lengths clear of the third,. The Irish handicap system is hard on you (moving from 83 to 96) but, saying that, at the start of the year I did think he would get to that mark. However finishing second and going to 96 is hardship, but it is all about today and it is great to get a winning bracket. There is a seven-furlong Listed race in Cork for him next.

Quotes on Carolina Jetstream (GB)

She finished fourth in a Listed race (Dundalk, November) and we were unlucky not to get black type that day. Probably she will go to Newcastle as well, for the mile. I will try and get black type with her next season. When she learns how to race, I think she will stay a mile and two no problem. At the moment, she needs to run over seven or a mile because she is a little bit fresh. When she drops her head, I think a mile and two will be no problem. Last time Billy (Lee) said she did a little bit too much and she was a little bit free and fresh, so he said to drop her to seven furlongs. I think there is a lot of improvement when she matures, definitely.

Quotes on Princess Child (FR)

If any horse ever deserved to win a stakes race it was her, although you don't always get what you deserve. She met a bit of trouble in-running but hit the line strong and while it was a head-bobber, she had previously come out the wrong side of a few tight finishes in her career. We had been campaigning her aggressively to try and win a stakes race and while she built a load of black-type, to win a group race is great. I'd say it will be a career-best on the figures and I thought she won the hard way. She is a group winner now so it is job done although we might look to win another one now.
