Slattery's Fleur off the mark over fences
He was only about 80% fit in Gowran (second on chase debut). He wasn't ready there. He cantered down to the third-last and just blew up. We knew he'd improved a lot. . Henry de Bromhead (trains Gowran winner Taponthego) said to me that he is a two-miler and he could be right. He could be just a two-mile chaser as he jumps so well. To get over a beginners chase in Ireland is a hard thing. The runner-up is rated145. . We could go travelling with him. Somewhere like Ascot, where there is a lot of jumping. We won't run him for a month anyway. I didn't want to tempt faith and make a plan before today. . We always thought he'd be better over fences and hopefully he will be. He used to jump hurdles too big. . I was actually not going to run him today because of the ground. I was going to run him in a Grade 3 at Cork on Sunday over two-and-a-half. They are probably as easy to win as a beginners chase. . We'll make a plan now after this and it's nice to have him.
Ryan shines again in Wexford bumper
He's a good horse and has a good pedigree,. . He is a lucky horse. I ended up with him by mistake. I bought another horse and was left with the wrong one! . Hopefully I'll sell him on now. I said to Henry (de Bromhead) would I bring him home or leave him here for him! . The harder you try to sell, the harder it is to sell. When you don't try, you get them sold! . I wouldn't mind running him over hurdles though. If no one wants him, I'll keep going with him.
