Moiqen back in the number 1 after long wait
Moiqen showed the change of gear that you'd expect from a Group 3 winner on the level, to land the Irish Stallion Farms European Breeders Fund Beginners Chase at Thurles. Thu 14th Feb
He was unlucky to meet a Grade 2 winner (earlier victor Aunt Nora) here the last day and also the third horse (Witness Of Fashion) won twice since,. There's a race for him at Navan next Saturday but it might come too soon. I'm delighted for his owner, Paddy McLoughney, who is my longest standing owner and gave me my first winner, with Agent Scully at Sligo in 1998.

I had my first winner in the owner Patrick McLoughney's colours. He is a long-standing owner of mine and I'm delighted to train a winner for him. Barry gave him a great ride. I might try him over hurdles as he has a lower handicap mark over hurdles.
T Hogan
He's a real, real honest horse. If you were to read his form you might think he wasn't genuine but he's too honest for his own good. Every day he gives 110 percent. The ground is soft . a small bit on the dead side. Paddy McLoughney was one of my very first owners. I trained a mare called Agent Scully to win at Sligo in 1998 . my first . in those colours with Pat Shanahan up. He's a very genuine horse. How far he'll go I don't know. He jumps real well and gives his best every day. He's after earning place money every day he goes out.
