Horses for courses as Carrig Cathal wins out west
We were a bit worried about the ground. He had a good run in Fairyhouse but the ground was deplorable that day. Denis got a good feel off him then. It's not ideal conditions for him yet — he's a nice little horse though and he'll probably go to Punchestown. Tom Doran is in Wexford and it's his Mrs' birthday. I can't for the life of me understand why Denis is not being used more too. It's sad to see Paul Carberry being retired but he's the next lad I'd have to Carberry riding for me. Once you leg him up you have no worries. Tom sent me seven and he has nine horses with me there now. Some of them will be nice on better ground. Hopefully we can keep banging in winners for him.

Doyle enhances her Ballinrobe bumper record
He's (jockey Sean O'Keefe) going to be very, very good. He's flying at the points. I bought him as a foal and he won his two schooling races — a hurdle and a bumper. I really fancied him today. I knew he'd love the ground and we like him an awful lot. It's a long way from Ballinrobe to Wexford so I don't come unless we have a fair old chance and he's done it really well. It was a beautiful ride and he's a very good kid. I own him half shares with an English owner of mine so it's all good.
