Shamrock goes to The Sneezer

He might not have been able to get the lead with the sprightly veteran Newmill in the line-up, but the outcome was still the same as The Sneezer made it three on the bounce under Tom Doyle in the Grade B Shamrock Handicap Chase at Gowran. Sat 05th Mar

Beckett Tough as Rock

Just Friends (9/4 this morning into 5/4) may have been the big mover for the Irish Stallion Owners European Breeders Fund Maiden Hurdle but Beckett Rock (as big as 6s in the morning into 7/2) had his supporters too, and the son of Presenting got the better of a tremendous duel up the straight with Booley Bay.

We got a little bit of luck but you need that in this game,. It was unfortunate to see Charles' (Byrnes) horse fall but racing is racing once the horse is alright. Robbie said he wasn't really able to use himself on that ground. We'll keep it low key with him for the minute.

After race at Punchestown Sun, 14th Nov, 2010 (1st)

I'm thrilled to bits. Some of mine have been running below par and I was getting a bit worried,. We've always thought an awful lot of him. He broke down at Fairyhouse a year-and-a-half ago and we gave him time. It was quick enough for him at Tipperary last time and the soft to heavy suits him. He done it well. We'll look for another handicap hurdle and then he might go jump a fence.

After race at Thurles Thu, 26th Feb, 2009 (1st)

I was a bit disappointed with his run at Navan the last day but he seems to want to get right-handed. I thought he'd improve a bit today although I wasn't sure he was capable of giving 8lbs to the favourite.
