Red gets a bracket for Moyglare and Weld
"It was an average race and a good opportunity," said Pat Smullen after bringing home even money favourite Orangey Red by nine and a half lengths in the Coral.ie European Breeders Fund Median Auction Fillies Maiden at Limerick. Thu 07th Apr
It's been a lucky race for me. I thought two furlongs out that our luck might me out as she was on the inside obviously going very well but with nowhere to go. But when the gap came she flew through it. She just likes a little ease in the ground. She won for Joe (Murphy) last year on good to firm, and she ran very well in the Group 3 in Cork the other day when it was more firm than good. I just thought that when she hit a race with softer ground that she might be able to win another race like this. We'll keep running her in those kind of races and maybe get a place in a Group 3. Who knows when the ground is soft she may run above herself. She is a very genuine and tough filly, and a really nice filly for them to have back on the farm as a broodmare.
John M Oxx
We were hoping to be placed as we thought the Weld horse was a serious horse,. She won on fast ground in Fairyhouse and after Sunday we thought the trip would suit. We rode her to, hopefully, get placed, but Gary said when she picked it up and went on it was game over. She's in the sales. Whether we keep her I don't know. A nice race to start off in would maybe the Park Express Stakes if she stays. She has a nice pedigree and has never run a bad race. She's never been out of the first three or four.
Joseph G Murphy
I'm delighted with that. It might not have been the best of races but she did it well. She's a very genuine honest filly and I think she'll get better with age. She's paying her way and making a living like us all. She handles any ground as long as it is not extremes.
Joseph G Murphy
