Chassotte just thwarts Sailors again
The Fun Lovin' Criminals Handicap at Leopardstown produced a thrilling finish with La Chassotte just getting home. Thu 10th Jun
.He was a course winner over ten furlongs as a three-year-old and he seems to like the place,. The danger looked the top-weight and he didn't seem to run his race which made things easier. He might go for a hurdle in Killarney. There is a two-and-a-half mile winners hurdles on the Monday and he'll also get an entry for the handicap there.
E J O'Grady
He was 5lb better off with the Gigginstown horse (Midnight Game) than he would be in a handicap and it was then a case of how many stars turned up. If 1,000 turned up we had no chance and if 700 turned up we had a sporting chance. Perhaps 700 turned up!. He stood on a piece of steel about 18 months ago and it went up into his hoof and we couldn't get him sound. We took him for a CAT scan which would be unusual for horses and we were told there would be a ten percent chance he would ever be sound. So it's marvellous that he's come back sound and well. My farrier has to take a lot of credit and the boys at home have also done a great job with him.
E J O'Grady
I'm considering running him on Thursday (in a Grade 3 at Punchestown) as there is nothing else for him for a while. We will see where he will go after that. He was keen early on when another horse came alongside him. It was a very well run race.
E J O'Grady
that made up for a series of disappointments and he didn't jump well enough at Fairyhouse the last day. I thought coming here today that if he was in the first four I'd be delighted with him although a few of the others may not have been at their best today. I was thinking of running him in the Fred Winter Hurdle at Cheltenham but he may now go for the Grade 1 race here on Hennessy day in February.
E J O'Grady
He deserved that and the softer ground is the secret to him. He is entered in the Curragh on Sunday in an apprentice race over a mile and two and he could go there. There is plenty of nice handicaps for him before the end of the season and he'll go hurdling over the winter.
