Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Great Barrier Reef (IRE)

We pitched him into a deep piece of work the last day at home, which he got a bit lost in, so we weren’t sure if there was a reason but there wasn’t. He came out of the work very well and fresh but we weren’t sure about today. Ryan said he was very green in the stalls and that he missed the break, so gave him a chance in the first part of the race. He said he flew home, but that he had to get hold of him and to teach him. He is obviously very high-class and should get seven (furlongs). If he comes out of this OK, we could let him go to the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot and you would have to be very happy with him. Wayne (Lordan, on Carry The Flag) let his horse roll along and his horse will be very happy going back to five (furlongs).

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Livenka (GB)

I’ve always liked her. It’s a nice pot to win with her en route to where we hope to be going with her, which is black-type,. said Lyons. I put her in the Lowther this morning at second entries. If she’s alive and kicking, that’s a lovely option. As with all the Juddmonte fillies, it’s all about black-type, but this is a nice pot to win en route to that. We’ve been lucky in the race and I’m never too proud to take Joe Foley’s money!. You don’t know what she’s beaten, obviously, but you do know what she beat in Fairyhouse, that’s the plus because she (Star Of State) demolished the Leopardstown horses. Regardless of what she beat, she’s a filly that I like. I made a mistake going seven; this is where she needs to be — at this trip. We’ll concentrate on this trip for the rest of the year, and she’s a top-of-the-ground horse, which is typical of Bated Breath.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Velozee (IRE)

She is a nice filly who was ready to start today. I think if she won, that she is nice and she has done that. I didn't think about the ground and it is the same for all of them, who were having their first runs. She has won her maiden on debut and the First Flier (Curragh, early May) is an obvious race in a month's time. Gary Matthews, a solicitor from Newry, is a new owner to the yard and is from the coursing world and his dad Brendan is champion trainer in Clonmel every year.
