I wasn't sure if he'd get 2m4f but he (Flanagan) said he'd get another half (mile). I told him to wait but he said he just took him there easily. The reason I ran him at 2m4f was I thought there wasn't another Rated race for a while and I didn't want to run him in a Graded race but he'll be a Graded horse now. It is such a pity for the people who own him (High Spirits Racing Club) who have been with me years and used to work in the (Slane) Distillery. They love racing so much it is a pity they are not here to see it.

I've had a wonderful nine months and little Rosie arrived — I wouldn't swap that for any winner, but it's good to be back. I couldn't believe it turning in I was like have we got another lap to go. Noel quietly fancied him so it was nice to get back on a winner. It was marvellous. She was very excited about coming back. Ted (Walsh jnr - husband) was telling me she was really hopping. She said she'd come back for Listowel but then we didn't have anything to run. I wanted her to come back to ride the horse in Roscommon but she said it was just a bit soon for her. I'm absolutely thrilled for her — it's great to have her back — she's a magic person. I must admit that I was surprised by how easy he won. I didn't think he could win as easy as that.
