A month off now for busy Camlann

He's run three times here this week. The first day was my fault as I didn't put the hood on him, and his next run on the Flat he just didn't get a clear run at the right time. He's a galloper and stays well,. I'm delighted for the Mee family and for myself but especially Rachael Blackmore as she has been knocking on the door all week (second on Supreme Vinnie yesterday as well) and that means a lot to her. He's a very genuine horse and will get a month off now.

Ellison does it again in the Ahonoora

They started racing from a fair way out and Chris used his head. He sat and then got all the breaks. He's a class jockey. We've had a great week at Galway and have been here since Monday. This horse had a bad draw on Thursday but when he's here we thought he might as well run. We let him out on Friday and he was bucking and kicking, and in great form. I thought Stipulate had the best chance but he got no run on the rail, and Baraweez had a bad draw. Five runs ago this horse was on the scrapheap. He'd a wind operation that didn't work, and we said we'd give him one more run with a tongue strap. He finished second and has won two good races at home since. He has got more confidence now.

Plate 2nd placer Alelchi wins with ease

I didn't expect as much pace but it suited him and his jumping really came into play. He loves it here,. The plan all along has been the Gran Premio Merano (in September), although he will get an entry in the Kerry National. Sometimes the ground can be too soft at Listowel. He could be a National horse next year.

2 at Galway for Mullins and Walsh

Ruby really enjoys riding him and was seeing strides six or seven strides from fences. He rode both the chase winners today with such confidence, and is riding as good as ever if not better. Age is certainly not affecting him. We will look for something over two and a half miles, and he likes good ground. Maybe if the ground is suitable he could go for the Grade 2 at Gowran Park (October 1).

Tarazani pleases favourite backers

His form had a decent look to it. He won nicely, and we'll look for a similar handicap next time,.

Mullins tops as Oxx and McDonogh win

She had a good run last time in a maiden at the Curragh. She had a bit of a delayed preparation before that race and came on from it,. She has a turn of foot and stays well which is a combination you need at Galway. She is a very genuine and straight-forward filly. There are a lot of black type winners from New Zealand in her pedigree. Declan is having a good week, and it's hard to get five winners with so many jump races.
