Mr Boss Man dominant at Ballinrobe

He did it well and the good ground helped him. He'll mix it between the flat and hurdles for the summer. My father, Camillus, owns him.

Madden's horse surprises at 16s

He battled and the other fella didn't. I think it was a slow run race and he showed his flat pace. That'll pay some of the bills,. He's a hardy horse and he'll probably go back on the flat where a mile and two is probably his trip.

Change of luck for Wild Fern connections

She won well and obviously the better ground suited her. Her full-brother (Storm Of Swords) has won four times in England since Christmas,. Unfortunately the Ennis' lost a Milan foal of seven weeks old only the other day so that is a nice change of luck for them. She might step up in trip. Shane said she wouldn't stop galloping but he hadn't as much in the tank as it looked like. I'm delighted for the Ennis' (owner James and breeder Michael) as she hasn't been easy to train and she has had a few problems. She will go for something similar now.

The Nutcracker gains deserved win

That was great. In fairness she was unlucky the last day in the North. We are just getting the hang of her, she needs to come late and she likes the bit of good ground,. She is settling since going over hurdles. She is the mostly aptly named animal in Ireland I would say and that's the reason I have her.

Eshtiaal helps under pressure punters

He deserved that and he is in again at a few places over the weekend. He stays further than that and I still think there is a good race on the flat in him. He liked that good ground.

Valours continues his progress at age of 12

He'll stay going for the summer and he might go back over hurdles. He is rated lower over hurdles. He likes a strong pace in his races.

Red Pearl makes a great start
