Quotes on Eben Zaabeel (GB)

He was very keen and free, and he had only one run over hurdles. The track's undulations might not have been in his favour. They have done a great job on the track; it is watered and credit to them as it is as good as I've seen all over Ireland. We were happy to run him and take his chance. It all worked out well. He was a bit keen, but during the race Dan got him switched off. He was a bit novicey but, overall, you'd be very happy and he won well. There is only one winning post and it is fair stiff from the furlong (pole) home, you see an awful lot of results changing at Downpatrick and Galway and all those places with a stiff finish. That man (King) is one of the best lads riding and he knows where the winning post is and that is what counts.

Quotes

Quotes on Lizzie Twigg (IRE)

She is a nice mare and to be fair, she should be unbeaten as I became greedy at the end of last season and ran her back quickly at the Punchestown bumper, where she was flat. She has been showing us all the right things and I don’t think she wants real winter ground, and is a spring filly. She is one for the festivals and I like her. I’ve tried to sell her after every run but couldn’t, for whatever reason. I nearly had her sold to America recently but thankfully she wasn’t and she could be a right one for the graded novice at Down Royal in November.

Quotes on Minella Hollow (IRE)

We found it hard to keep him sound last season but brought him back this year and he has been 100%. We gave him a run back in Roscommon but hadn't had him away schooling, and he chipped in plenty that day,. He came on today, he was very fresh and stuck his neck out. Willie's (Mullins' runner-up Reaching High) made a mistake at the last but we also got in close to it, but were quickly away. There is a for sale sign on him.

Quotes on Switch From Diesel (IRE)

He was a bit unlucky the last day in Kilbeggan, it just didn’t work out for him on the night. He’s improved again and he’s a big raw horse, a fine-looking horse. It’s great for the Devine family because they bred him, it makes it even more special as he’s like a member of the family. Geraldine and Nick are delighted. He’s a horse that should keep improving and he’ll have no problem jumping a fence. Ricky said he’s raw, he’s on it and off it, and I’d imagine there is plenty more improvement in him. He won well, handles a bit of nice ground, so we’ll pick our tracks and keep going.

Quotes on Witches Familiar (FR)

We kept her for Galway, after she won so easily first time up, we just thought she was alright,. We had her in for a lot of last season but we kept her as a novice, we thought she was a bit better than the average novice. You won’t get too many Zaraks now for jumping bred mares, it’s nice to have a filly going jumping by him. She did it well and she’s one that we think a bit of. It’s a pity Rich and Susannah can’t be here. We’ll up her in grade as best we can. I’d probably be looking at her as a Royal Bond-type filly. We might just leave her now. I can see her being a good mare in novice company for the whole season. I’d be looking at the long term rather than shorter term with her.

Quotes on Like An Ocean (IRE)

We thought she had ability, we trained the half-sister and she won a maiden hurdle as well. I thought she’d probably learn a lot today. I suppose a couple of things fell right for her, it was a messy race but she still had to be very gutsy to go out and beat horses with more experience. I think that was the impressive part and we’re delighted with her. For a mare running her first ever race on the track to be that straightforward and not bat an eyelid, I think, was a great sign. Hopefully there are nice things to come in the future with her.
