After race at Listowel Thu, 25th Sep, 2025 (1st)  It is grand to get that out of the way and Michael's 7lb claim is a help. She is only in since July 14 and, again, with these good horses you don't have to work them too much, they're just able to do it. We had done loads of schooling with her once a week for the whole summer. We then put the hurdles out on the grass with Michael schooling her twice a week for the last two weeks, and she had been jumping great. She will go to Down Royal for a grade 3 novice (November) next and we'll see after that. Her owners Mickey (Veale) and Tom (McCarthy) are farmers and love coming here. She finished second here last year so they're delighted. Michael (29) has turned pro, is basing himself with us and is with us three days a week. I'm sure he'll get those rides for bigger trainers in those big handicaps now as he is a steal for 7lb, so best of luck to him as he deserves it and is a good rider. Declan Queally

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 29th Dec, 2024 (1st)  She was unreal. It was kind of the same as Naas. We just said to the boys that we would let her gallop around at the back and come home as well as we can. The lads said there is no pressure, look after her, and we’re planning on coming here for the mares' bumper at the Dublin Racing Festival. It worked out and she’s a very talented filly.

After race at Naas Sun, 10th Nov, 2024 (1st)  I was cursing myself when I seen Dec (Lavery, on the favourite) following the leader as there was no real middle pace in the race. I was trapped back further than I wanted to be, and I said I'd just have to sit and suffer and see how it goes. I just made my ground slowly and got a small little slit turning in. I was a long way off the pace still but to be fair to her she got me out of a hole. I was too far back but she's obviously a good filly. She's owned by two gentleman, Micky Veale and Tom McCarthy so it's mighty for them. Declan Queally
