Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Alex Belardo (IRE)

I suppose a lot of Belardo's like a bit of cut. I think we deserved it as much as he deserved it because he is a little bit tricky, but he put his best foot forward today. He put his head down when he needed to. Great to get the first win with him and I think there might be more with him next year. He's just a little bit of a baby and he's quite big and tall. Good to get the win this year and I think he is in during the week (at Bellewstown) and we'll see if he goes there. Look forward to him next year again. He ran well in Dundalk as a two-year-old, but we felt on his last run that he had had enough of it in terms of the surface. We always felt that the slow side of good would be better for him. We'll think about it, but he doesn't owe us anything now, so we might look after him.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Dervo Annie (IRE)

We were delighted with Down Royal. She’s improved a lot from her two-year-old days. Andrew Lynch rides her all her work. We thought we were going with a bit of a chance (last time) as it was three-year-old only, it’s hard to get those handicaps. Colin said after Down Royal that we could drop her back if we wanted. The man that owns her, Joe Dervan, is local, from Ashbourne. It’s his first runner in these colours. She just bumped into one on the day last time. Colin said she’s still babyish and learning her trade. She was still little bit green at the finish. He wanted something to aim at rather than being in front and having the older horses coming at her. He gave her a super ride, as usual. She loves good ground, six or seven. She’s had her win now so that’s great and we’ll enjoy today.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Mullacash Buzz (IRE)

Tom filled me with confidence, said he was in great form but it was a pity about the draw. He really showed the ability he has, even from stall 17. He's very consistent, always breaks well and once you take a pull, he'll do his job from there. Even going up to the line there, he had his ears pricked and had plenty left. He'd have been a bit better with a bit of company but got it done in the end.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Brains (IRE)

He gets his turn every so often and is a prolific winner in the past. He’s a nine-year-old now and there is still life in him. We’ll go on for the summer with him and I’m delighted for Paul (Sweeney, owner) who is a gentleman to train for. It’s a nice day to get a winner and he could come back as he seems to like it around here. He’s a real pet of a horse and he was swinging there with Shane and really loving it. He’s still enjoying life even after all the miles that he’s put up over the years.
