Review dundalk 27th Nov

Majestic Timeline continued an excellent 2013 when registering her fifth win of the year in the DKIT Students Union Race Night Handicap at DundalkWed 27th Nov

Queen brings further joy to Landy and Lyons

Iron Major has been described as a bit of a character in the past and he was reportedly matched in running on the exchanges at the basement price of 1.01 in the win and place markets on the Crowne Plaza Jockey & Trainer Rated Race at Dundalk. Queen Of The Sand showed determination in abundance to bring up a double for Ger Lyons (took the previous race with outsider Azurite) here. Wed 27th Nov

Azurite a different animal now

Azurite came back off a break, now gelded, a different animal, to spring a 25/1 surprise in the Dundalk Stadium – Light Up Your Night (C & G) Maiden under Gary Carroll. Wed 27th Nov

After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 30th Sep, 2014 (1st)

We're delighted to have a treble. I love this horse and he'll be a fine horse next year when he fills into himself.

G M Lyons

After race at Curragh Mon, 5th May, 2014 (1st)

On his first couple of runs he wasn't coming out of the stalls and when we had him gelded he won his next start. Gary said he was still as green as grass but he's as honest as the day is long. I was convinced we were beaten and I'm happy the horses are running well.
