Quotes on Echo Of Faith (IRE)
both the step up in trip and giving him a bit of extra time helped, because he’s a big horse. I went at him thinking he was a Lucky Vega so would be early (maturing), but my horses are only coming to themselves now. I think they are really starting to come to themselves. He has a great attitude, will probably stay a mile and likes that nice ground. We’ll see what mark he gets, he can’t be more than 75 or 80.

Quotes on Star Strewn (IRE)
she's a very good filly and I really like her. She had solid form, but was probably a little bit immature when she ran here before Christmas. I think she could go forward and you wouldn't know where you would end up. I think she is definitely a black type filly and even more. we probably won't come back here again, we'll just put her away and go to the turf. We might run her in a Guineas Trial in Leopardstown and see how we get on after that. I think she is mature enough to go straight to Leopardstown.
