Quotes on Shadow Paddy (IRE)

It is this dream you are chasing the whole time and Ella, my second child, has a tear in her eye leading him in and another daughter Clodagh is the same. I was under pressure today as I thought it was our race to lose which, for an outfit of our size, is pressure. The race didn't go to plan as he was going too well and then drifted wide, but once he knuckled down he settled it quickly. When Aintree went wrong, Galway was the plan and now that that has been achieved, he'll have a little holiday and come back for a graded chase at Gowran. He has so many options. These are real racing owners and I can't thank them enough as they follow him everywhere. I was so nervous all morning so I'm buzzing now as this horse doesn't understand the weight on his shoulders. I have big aspirations for him and this is what we do it for.

Quotes on Bowensonfire (FR)

He’s a bit of a monkey. You don’t even give Jack instructions going out, just do what you want, drop him in and get him in every bit of trouble you can. Maybe getting his head in front the last day helped. I thought he might be badly handicapped in that ground but it’s great to win. It’s great that the lads are here. Dave (Page) and his brother and a few of them own this fella. Dave is with me a couple of years, and they are big supporters of Cullentra. We’ve had good days and bad days, but they stick with me. Without these lads you can’t do it. They travel over from the UK to see their horses when they can, they don’t get enough credit these men.

Quotes on D Art D Art (FR)

This horse came back from the dead, so it’s some achievement - he was badly hurt. He was very brave, novicey at a couple and maybe a bit too brave. The further he went the better he got. He’s always had ability, but he had to come back from a horrific injury.

Quotes on Frankie John (IRE)

When the phone rang to say this horse would be sent back (having sold for 275,000 pounds in December 2024), I wasn't worried. Normally I would be, but when I said it to John (Mahon, owner) that the horse didn't have any major problem, he said he'd keep him,. We've had offers in the last year but every time I've rang John, he said not to ring anymore unless that they have X amount. In the end, I gave up ringing him back.

Quotes on Will Do (IRE)

He jumped great apart from missing one down the back the last time. I was delighted to see something going on after a few hurdles just to give him a bit of a lead. He's a nice horse and he'll probably be better suited by a more galloping track. He was just ready to start off and Jack said there's plenty of improvement in him. He's a chaser down the road, he has a good attitude and is very relaxed. Anything from 2m6f to three miles should suit him and he'll probably step up to Listed or Graded company now.

Quotes on Kilbarry Saint (FR)

She had a good point-to-point run, but became disappointing in the interim when she became free and it took us a while to get the hang of her. She is an honest mare and, even though she is by Saint des Saints, she had a Flat pedigree and her dam is by Martillo. Black-type will be the ultimate aim, she is going the right way now and you'd never know she might be in the right place at the right time some day.
