Keane draws level with Lee on promising newcomer

We were worried about greenness as she has never left the farm, so we just didn't know. She had worked well last week and we thought this was the place to start her as it was he last opportunity on grass, although we weren't worried about the all-weather either. She is a nice mover and hopefully is ground-versatile and obviously handled that. I liked when she came into the parade ring that her presence seemed to grow and she was nearly the pick of the paddock in her attitude and outlook. She jumped, travelled well, was green obviously and Colin gave her a lovely ride and she was doing her best work at the end.

Coen brothers dominate Kone Handicap

he was unlucky at the festival in 2021 when he got no luck in running and didn't win until he got heavy ground at Killarney last October. After that I bought him back for £4,000 at Doncaster sales. Ben liked him the few times he had ridden him and was disappointed he hadn't won on him up until now. There's a 1m2f handicap at Naas on Sunday and we'll see how he is.

Duke Of Leggagh imperious in Galway

He is coming to himself all the time and, being a full-brother to (stablemate) Ideal Pal, we had a rough idea he'd handle the ground. He was very weak early on this year but has started to strengthen. I wasn't expecting him to win as easy as that but he is going the right way and knows what it is all about. It's onwards and upwards but that's him finished for the year as he won't be going to the all-weather. He is named after a friend of mine Robbie McMahon and I'm delighted for him. He is from Leggagh and he asked me to call the horse after him.

Chally Chute completes handicap hat-trick

I thought he had a sporting chance, being bred the way he is and he has good big feet. He is an improving horse, is fit as a fiddle and we took a chance he'd go through the ground and he did. There aren't too many than can win around Dundalk and do that as well and he is a lovely tough and genuine horse. That'll be it now for the year and we'll put him away. he is plenty big enough for hurdles and while he has been creeping up the handicap, he has different options. The main thing is he has had a wonderful year and I'm delighted for the owners who also bred him. It is a great thrill for them. He is named after Chally Chute who trained horses on the Curragh and Julie's dad rode for him.

Duffy full of pride in Molly Kaye

Whelan boots home a double on Whatcouldhavebeen

Ronan said she was a bit out of her depth early in the race and was further back than ideal but said she eventually got into the race nicely and stayed galloping to the line. He said the further he got to the line, the stronger she was getting,. She had soft ground form around the track and stays very well. She got a six week break after her run at the festival here with a view to going hurdling and Laura Bennett got a spin on her in a charity race last week and left her right for today. She'll go hurdling next.
