Reports in which Grande Marques (IRE) was mentioned

After race at Tipperary Sun, 31st Aug, 2025 (1st)
She had been knocking on the door in those races and I brought her to England about 25 times but she then goes and wins close to home!. She had the right draw today and was able to get to the stands' side rail, which was a big help. Nothing really bothered her in front and he (Heffernan) was able to sit until a furlong-and-a-half down. Everything worked in her favour. If they all did what she did, a Listed winner and Group 3-placed, we'd be alright and today's race was a win-and-you're-in for the (Group 1) Flying Five Stakes. We have nothing to lose and all those sprinters seem to be beating each other this year.

She ran well the first day in the Curragh and met a bit of interference. Then she was free in that Group 2 (at the Curragh) and she was free a bit in the Ballyhane race in Naas and kind of got caught in no man's land. She came up the middle of the track on her own. She's had excuses, but it is very well saying they have excuses - they have to go out and show otherwise at times. We stopped making excuses today and she won well today. We'll step her back up in grade. There is a Group 3 in Ayr in a fortnight's time and there is a race at Newmarket quite late as well, at the end of October. It is a fillies' race over six. Quick ground doesn't seen to bother her anyhow. It was a grand little pot for four runners.
