After race at Naas Wed, 26th Jun, 2013 (1st)

I was blown away by her - I didn't think she was ready!. it's time they started coming into form! Sophies Choice has had her problems and to be honest I thought she'd need the run; they'd make liars out of you every day and I wasn't sure about the ground for her either! I knew Sweet Annathea was in the form of her life and she seems to be getting better with age. I might wait for Galway with both of them now.

After race at Dundalk Fri, 8th Mar, 2013 (1st)

She's very honest and I'm glad she came good. I just might give her a break now but if not she'll be back here in three weeks.

Thomas Cleary

After race at Curragh Sat, 16th Jul, 2011 (1st)

We were delighted with her run at Leopardstown. She is a big gangly filly and its great to win a maiden at the Curragh, although it is an ordinary day's racing. We will take our time with her now but she is maturing all the time.
