Jack takes mile contest
Ask Jack showed the benefit of a comeback race just over two weeks ago at the course when landing the mile handicap at Dundalk. Sat 09th May
That was a great performance and we're delighted with the horse. He is genuine . very tough. He has options now . hurdles, Group company or the sales in Newmarket. We'll bring him to the sales anyway and see what he makes. He is a diamond so it'll be easy to polish him up. I was expecting a big run too from the filly. I thought we could be second with Silver Tide even though she is only rated 79. She was unlucky (hampered over two furlongs).

this race was always a race I wanted to win and it registers up there with my biggest achievements as a trainer, having trained Ardbrae Lady to finish second in an Irish 1,000 Guineas a few years ago and winning the 1982 Thyestes Chase with Felicity's Pet.

The five pound claim from Danny Mullins was a big help as we were giving away a lot of weight to the younger horses. He delivered in style today., . He was bought to go hurdling and he's improving all of the time. I think he'll have a very bright future over hurdles (Easyfix Hurdles) as the owner Tom Howley is involved with Easyfix. The horses are running very well at the moment and that's as a result of the change in ground. All of our horses need good ground. We've known all season that we have a lovely bunch of horses and we're just reaping the rewards now.
