Quotes on Bowensonfire (FR)

He’s a bit of a monkey. You don’t even give Jack instructions going out, just do what you want, drop him in and get him in every bit of trouble you can. Maybe getting his head in front the last day helped. I thought he might be badly handicapped in that ground but it’s great to win. It’s great that the lads are here. Dave (Page) and his brother and a few of them own this fella. Dave is with me a couple of years, and they are big supporters of Cullentra. We’ve had good days and bad days, but they stick with me. Without these lads you can’t do it. They travel over from the UK to see their horses when they can, they don’t get enough credit these men.

Quotes on Frankie John (IRE)

He is a lovely horse and was always going to be a chaser. He hasn't done any schooling since Galway, but I thought he didn't need to. Dan gave him a lovely ride and let him warm into the race. The Drinmore was always in my head for him, but he had to go close or win today to do that. We have the horse by default as he returned to us after initially being sold, but worse things than that have happened. He didn't have the best campaign over hurdles as the Martin Pipe Hurdle at Cheltenham had been his aim, but he missed it due to a dirty scope. He then finished fourth in a Grade 1 at Aintree and got a 10lb penalty. It is exciting to have him for this season, and I think 2m4f is spot on for him.

Quotes

Quotes on Jarrive De Mee (FR)

He is a very nice horse, is by Authorized and out of a Great Pretender mare, he won a point-to-point and has now won a maiden hurdle easily. He is for sale to stay in the yard and will eventually jump a fence. Aubrey McMahon (agent) has had a lot of success and he pointed this horse out to me so deserved a lot of credit. He cost the price as a nice store horse so is the same as Full Confession (recent bumper winner) and they are nice types for nice kind of money. Meetingofthewaters (Paddy Power Chase winner) started off in my colours last year and I like this horse: I love those Authorized horses but they are hardy to get.

Quotes on Manoir De Mirande (FR)

Jack gave him a good ride, held on to him and did everything right. He got a fall the last day, and that's why we didn't run him back too quickly. We gave him a bit of a break. He winged the last two, and he was good.
