she's improving all the time but I thought it was going to be hard today giving 8lb and back in trip on tacky ground. She didn't travel great but from three out I knew nothing else was going real well either. She's a dream mare and after the last day we said we'd go for one more mares race and put her away for a bit. The boys live very close to Ballybrit (Galway) but the ground might be a bit good there but she'd love the track and the trip in the Galway Plate. We'll see what the handicapper does and I think she's 87 over hurdles so we'll try and exploit that somewhere and she should be able to scrape home off that!. Things couldn't be better and I'm really enjoying it. I have a great bunch of staff to work with and great owners. I really love the job and hopefully it'll keep going the way it's going.
