Downpatrick Sun, 14th Jun, 2026 Blue Moon Boy He's a tough little horse. He ran a great race first run in a handicap (at Sligo) and then Sean (O'Keeffe) rode him the last day and we fancied him. He had a real clear passage and then a horse just side on hit him in Tramore, and Sean said he wasn't travelling after that and he just was easy on him. I'm delighted for Conor; he does a lot of schooling for me. He's a good lad and he is always available and he would school a lot of the horses for me. Sean O'Keeffe usually rides my horses, but Conor does all the schooling for me in the Curragh. He is a brilliant schooling jockey. It is great to see him getting the winners now because he is some value for his claim. He gave that a brilliant ride. Conor actually rode my first runner probably six years ago at the start of August, so I know Conor a good while. We'll tip away with Blue Moon Boy. I was going to run him in the 0-100 and the conditions of this race were like a 95 - 110. He is 95 and he got in with the allowance and Conor did the weight on him. I'm delighted for the owner (Gerhard Matte). It is his third win for us and he bred him. I've never met the man; he lives in Germany and is a doctor. He's going to be a nice dual-purpose horse. He's only a four-year-old.
Listowel Mon, 1st Jun, 2026 Shannon Bank I'm delighted for his owner Tom Mulvey as we have right craic over how I got to train this horse. I previously trained a horse called Luker's Tipple for a group of lads who drink with Tom in Luker's Pub in Shannonbridge. When the lads were moving my horse to Gavin Cromwell, Tom - without even knowing me - said 'what's this lad Kinirons' number?', and moved this mare from Gavin's to me!. Tom is a sound man, but unfortunately couldn't make it down today. In fairness, this mare had some good form in bumpers before I got her. We tricked away with her at home, and she took a bit of organising but we had this race planned and she had a nice run over fences the last day. She has come into herself. She is a game mare, but I had a bit of convincing to get Sean (O'Keeffe) off last year's winner (and today's runner-up Patty O'Farrell) to ride this mare, but he listened thank God and gave her a great ride.
