Soft to Heavy (Chase course heavy in places) View all races

Formscan By Tom Weekes - HARVARD GUY reverts to a suitable distance and can put a favourable 126 chase-rating to good use. A dual Listed-winner and Grade 3-placed over hurdles in 2023/24, he missed 641 days prior to last November’s return and while well held this season, caught the eye here last time and is well handicapped at today’s distance. Mark Walsh is unable to do the weight on the selection but rides Goraibhmaithagat, who has obvious claims despite being 7lb higher than when scoring here last month. Built By Ballymore is 4lb out of the handicap but ran well in first-time blinkers at Punchestown. Another McManus-runner Uhavemeinstitches is out of an Irish National winner chased home high-class rivals recently but contests her first handicap chase today.

Quotes on High Class Hero (GB)

He did it nicely. The ground was quite testing as they had a lot of rain before racing. He’s in the Brown Advisory. He would look that type of an animal and we’ll probably head that direction. The other fella, Loughglynn, will probably stay at home and we’ll find something for him.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Kinturk Kalanisi (IRE)

He's been as solid as a rock. It's brilliant for John and Sabrina (Daly), it's their first horse with me. Jim (Melia) and Sean and Kathleen who bred him had him with me to point-to-point and sell. We couldn't get a decent price for him in England and I said I'd get them a few pound back home so I was delighted for them. We think he'll make a nice chaser in time, we've thought that all along. He jumps really well and it's great to pick up a hurdle race on the way. The small field and having to do the donkey work was far from ideal for him. He's much better having somebody taking him along. It's just the way it panned out. He could go for the three-mile handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse over Easter.

Quotes on Shanbally Kid (IRE)

He's just a little horse that, always over hurdles, I actually thought he was going to run a big race in a Coral Cup one year going to Cheltenham and never fulfilled that. He loves a bit of room; he's a little bit timid I suppose and being out there on his own he's just relished it and what a feeling you know, That trip, getting a bit of space away from horses and typical of Willie, you know, placed him right. I said to Willie I want to keep space on him and he said .if you think he'll jump for you doing that, go ahead and do it.

Quotes on Bushmans Pass (IRE)

we’re delighted and it was a great ride by Phillip. The plan was to ride him forward and if they take him on, they take him on. At Punchestown the last day, he got tied up in the middle of a bunch of horses and wasn’t comfortable at any stage. It was borderline whether we were going to run him as I said if the ground was drying out, there was no point as he has had leg trouble. In the past, we thought he wanted loose soft ground but maybe we’re wrong. There was a fair bunch of staying chasers coming to the last: they were all there and I couldn’t believe that had the boot to pick up again after jumping the last. he’ll get an entry in the Irish National and could be a horse for it. His race the last day in Punchestown was 3m4f and maybe he doesn’t stay that in soft ground but in ground like today’s, might be happy over it. He wasn’t pulling up at the line anyway.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Uhavemeinstitches (IRE)

It's great to get a winner, it's been a while since we had one. Mark gave her a lovely ride. He said they went very quick in front and he felt it just fell apart.  . She is a nice mare going forward. She is a little bit babyish and made one or two novicey mistakes, which I didn't think she would, but I suppose they were going a good speed and it was her first time over fences. . It was a race for horses rated 120 or less over hurdles, so a lot of the higher class horses were ruled out. We'll have to see where she fits in as the season goes on. . She is a nice filly to have and it's great to have a winner for JP. . She has a lot of similarities (to her dam). She's a lot slicker over hurdles than her dam was. She is designed to be a chasing filly and the family does get further. Around here is a quick two-and-a-half and you'd like to think a bigger galloping track would suit her.  . We don't want to be getting too carried away because it's the start of the season and there is a lot of good horses to come out yet. We'll have a look at what's coming up and have a chat with Frank (Berry).  . We just wanted to get today out of the way and get the experience into her.

He did (get the three miles nicely), but Keith gave him a lovely easy ride and he snuck around on him. He got it nice and smooth, and he jumped very well. Hopefully (more options now), I suppose we are going to be up to a mark now that he would get into the bottom of a nice race. It was a nice race to win today, a 20 grand race, nothing wrong with it.

He’s been a bit in and out over fences and is a bit of a monkey. We put blinkers on him today, Mark got a hold of him to get him up there and he was a different horse.

Quotes on Ballybow (IRE)

To be honest if I was Sam, I’d have followed Ballygunner Castle instead of him following us, and pushed him along. They went no gallop though and it was a no-race, really so that's why he is riding them. They quickened over the last two, but the one thing I do like about our horse, from the second-last to the line - even after the last - he dropped his head and showed a good attitude. We’ll go for the Albert Bartlett now. I think the race could suit him, and he could have an each-way chance in a race like that, with a lead, coming at a few horses.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Prophet's Corner (IRE)

That’s my first winner on the track, I’ve had 24 in point-to-points. He’s kind of a yard favourite. I suppose three miles is his thing and when you get into heavy ground that’s mainly his thing. He’s very good on heavy ground, he can go the same speed on soft as he can on hard. He’s one-paced, but stays going. We’ll try for another hurdle and see how that goes after today. He might have won too far, but we’ll take it. It’s our first winner so we’re not going to complain. Darragh is my brother so it’s a family success. It’s all in-house which keeps the costs down!. I just want to say a word about Mikey O’Sullivan. It’s an awful tragedy — there are no words for it.
