Soft, Yielding to Soft in places View all races

Formscan By Michael Graham - CHABLIS ROCK holds some notable entries and wasn't overly perturbed in shedding her maiden tag over further in Limerick. She is proven on rain-softened ground and could be a filly with a bit of scope now that she has got her head in front. Apercu has a creditable win ratio and has been plying her trade in decent handicaps. This is her trip and she is 2lb lower than her last winning mark. Fiver Friday is holding her form well on the Flat, and over hurdles, so is well in the hunt for a cheque. Beauparc, tough front-runner Thrifty Of Digby, and Chica Guerrera are others aiming to get into the mix.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Apercu (IRE)

She’s a tough mare, she’s improving and Billy knows her well. He gave her a great ride,. She seems to go everywhere he wants her. She got it handy up front and he said himself that he probably got there a bit earlier than he thought. She was enjoying herself and was going sweetly. She battles and when the horse came back at her she just kept finding. She was tough out, she’s a great filly to watch because she wears her heart on his sleeve.

Quotes on Narlita (GER)

A deserved win and the first time she’s got her ground. The further she goes the better she is. She’s in Galway next Monday over a similar trip which should suit her again. It’s nice for her owner Brendan Fitzpatrick. I trained winners for him years ago and he’s been lucky with this one.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Beauparc (IRE)

When she’s right, she’s a nice filly. The last (day) she ran disappointingly. I thought she might be in season, but we found nothing wrong. Maybe the track in Sligo just didn’t suit her and they maybe just over watered the ground. She’s done her job today anyway, that’s three she’s won now. She’ll probably be rated in the 80s now. The lads would like to go to Galway so that’ll probably be the next stop. She probably won’t run before that and she seems to run better fresh. She might take her chance in the mile and a-half premier handicap there.

Quotes on Diamond Exchange (IRE)

She was really tough there. She's a lovely, likeable filly. We thought a bit of her last year. She got colic during the summer, so fair play to connections, they waited. She was in last Sunday here but she was in season, so we waited for this. She is in at Roscommon on Monday, but I don't know if we'll go. Shane thinks a fast run 10-furlongs is really her gig. We'll just see how she comes out of it and we could go to the Curragh next weekend. There is an option for her there as well.

Quotes on Thrifty Of Digby (IRE)

She’s some tough, brave, filly. She wasn’t going to get beaten, she kept on putting her head down. They took her on early on as well. She really is great. She only got it on the nod and for once it’s gone the right way for me!. She’s actually in the online sale, but we might keep her now. She loves Roscommon and here, and she goes from seven furlongs to a mile-and-a-quarter. There might be another day in her but she’s getting her rating up now.

Quotes on Chablis Rock (IRE)

She handled the ground well and while she is by Sioux Nation, she stays well. She is a big, slow-strider and Decky kept it simple and she won well. It was only a middle-of-the-road maiden but she now has a winning bracket. You'd love to find blacktype at some stage with her but we'll go for a handicap now. She has the size and scope to improve.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Liberation Date (GB)

Great to get the first one. The horses have been running really well and we have had plenty of horses placed. This lady had good form coming here today and we were expecting a big run from her. She probably does (need every yard of that), but she will come on plenty now from that experience. She's a big lady and she's learning every day. She's going to improve again. We always thought plenty of her. She's coming now and she is learning off every run. Possibly she will be put away now and we'll wait for the turf to come back or we could come back up again here say in February or March. When she gets a break, she will strengthen up plenty for the break. When she steps up in trip, she will improve. Hopefully, she can bring us to some good places if she is not sold. As with all our horses, they are all for sale. Loved my time riding, and I suppose this was the next step and enjoying every minute of it. It is a completely different avenue to riding them. I have big support from Donnchadh (Doyle), so I have to thank him an awful lot. He has provided me with a yard, and he has filled it as well, so very lucky. I helped out with a few breezers last year and I got a good bug from that then. When Donnchadh and I spoke, that was the next step. There were plenty to train. I have a couple of two-year-olds that haven't run. They will run next year as three-year-olds. I have a couple that might run up here next week. Donnchadh has been very busy buying yearlings at the sales, so we are goin
