Pets Georgina She had a really good run in a novice hurdle at Kilbeggan and is a talented mare. She's difficult to ride and difficult to train, and did a good bit wrong there. She pulled her way to the front, but still had enough to stay there. She's unnaturally tough. She's out a of a good mare (Missyspet) that the Hartes raced, who won three races. She'll go back hurdling now. |

Gaelic Arc His first run back didn’t go according to plan but I’d say he would have won in Kilbeggan only he got a terrible fall. He seems to have come alive again. In fairness to Tom (Westropp Bennett) and Mark (Fleming) they were gutsy enough to leave Harry on him. I think Harry is a good kid, I like him. I fancied him today to run a huge race. Maybe it wasn’t the strongest race in the world, but it’s great to have a winner at Punchestown. He gave him a lovely ride. He kept a bit up his sleeve and finished well. |

Zolpharine It wasn’t before time that he got going, he won his maiden hurdle first time,. He had a good run in a bumper here as well, when he was second to one of Willie Mullins’ (Caman Eileen). I don’t know if he’ll run again tomorrow, we’ll see. It might be a bit soon. He’s a grand horse for the summer. He’s a smasher. It took us so long to get him right, he got a fall schooling after he won his maiden hurdle. There was lots of chiropracty. Mark Slevin did a great job, we fired his palate and tidied him up as best we could. He looks progressive now, even though he’s an eight-year-old. If we pulled him out tomorrow he could win again!. He’s way better over fences, he’s tricky over hurdles but he’s putting it together now. |

Zolpharine He is Fairyhill Run's (five-time-winning stablemate) half-brother and is a cracking little horse, but it has taken him a while to win for a second time. He had four 'seconds' last year, so hopefully he might go forward and win a few now. He will keep going through the summer. |
