Brassil's Cover Runs Naas rivals ragged
Fri 09th Jan
Run For Cover enjoys herself at head of affairs
Sat 13th Dec
Fri, 9th Jan, 2026
We were trying to get her to settle as she’s very keen at home. Conor said we were wasting our time and we should try and make the running. Ricky rode her in Fairyhouse and she won, so why would you change it when it worked. She’ll get further but she’ll probably be penalised because of her style of running she is either going to win or be swallowed up. At least she has won for the owners, and they have the mare. I thought she’d be better going left-handed, but she jumped a bit right today. We’ll freshen her up and find another race for her. She’ll jump a fence too.

After race at Fairyhouse Sat, 13th Dec, 2025 (1st)
We said we’d give up fighting with her because she’s just very free in her races and we always had the hood on her. You’d have to drop her completely out and see if she could actually finish the race. We said we’d try something different. If she was allowed to go in front like that, there was a chance she would stay going because she wasn’t getting home fighting her and she was kind of resenting it. She was lovely and sweet, and she jumps really quick and well. She’s reasonably well handicapped and we’ll see if we can find another one like that. She handles the ground and goes two-and-a-half miles.
