Telegram Sam gets the memo

he’s been stepping forward after every run and we were hopeful today. Sean said he was a little bit keen going down the hill but still he did it nicely. We’ll see what mark he gets and might go for a rated novice hurdle. He’s a nice horse going forward but we won’t be too busy with him, as he’s only a four-year-old. That’s his fourth run, we’ll maybe give him another run and then chat and see what we’re going to do.

Inver Bay springs 50/1 surprise at Roscommon

running in her first handicap, I wasn’t expecting her to be good enough to win today but they went so hard in front, I think they cut each other's throats and it fell into her hands. I’m absolutely delighted as I thought the handicapper was a bit hard on her. I don’t know how true the race was run, it might have just fallen into her hands, but I’m delighted. I have good owners and I’m absolutely delighted that the horses are in good order. Rachael, Alanna and everyone are doing a great job at home.

Amateur Doyle has claim reduced at Roscommon

Getaway Charlie was out of form but dropped down the grades and had cheekpieces on today. He seemed to be coming into form at home, he travelled and jumped everywhere, they went a good gallop early and that suited. He likes to be passing horses and everything worked out well. I probably got there a bit soon but I was going so easy I said I may as well keep going with him. It’s great to ride a winner for my father. That’s my 7lb claim gone as well and it’s great to do it for him. I’m at home three or four days a week and you can see all the hard work that goes into it. It’s hard to come by winners in Ireland so it’s mighty.

Craft lands another win for Ryan

A Snow White Park wins dramatic Kilbegnet Chase

Cheltenham in the mix for Slattery's syndicate

we were a bit disappointed the last day, when she was a bit slowly away and missed the first fence, although were delighted to see trainer Val O’Brien winning the race. She did that well today, has to have good ground and to be ridden like that. She’s a brilliant jumper. The boys (Mrs Crogh's Syndicate, which includes former Tipperary hurler Lar Corbett) would like a day out so we might go to one of those meetings in Cheltenham off a light weight. Down Royal gets good ground and could be an option, but the boys like Cheltenham!

Doyle doubles up on Curling's debutante

it was a lovely performance, he’s a lovely horse but I thought he might be a bit raw today. He’s always worked well, Roger Loughran pre-trained him and had all the work done. We have him for the last couple of months. He will be a nice horse although I didn’t expect him to do that today. There is plenty of improvement in him, I’d say. The first and second pulled a long way clear and I’d say they are two nice horses. I’m delighted with that and I’d imagine he’ll be sold now, hopefully.
