Gold Threads his way through to make winning Curragh debut
50/1 Cash Me another winner for in-form McMonagle
She had been showing us that sort of ability at home. My horses weren’t quite right around the time of her last run. We just had to take a pull for a week and she’s our first runner since so that inspires some confidence. She’s a nice mover, very genuine and Dylan gave her a lovely ride. He got a nice tow into the race and luckily enough got the break.

Daboya thrills syndicate with last gasp victory
I’m delighted with that and for the syndicate who are all relations of mine. They bought her at the November sales and it took a while to get going with her, but she’s come right in the last couple of weeks. She ran well in Galway and it’s great to win here. I thought she was only going to be third, but she battled on strong in the end and Keithen gave her a great ride. She’ll jump hurdles as well and will make a dual-purpose horse.

Clonmacash takes Curragh finale under Sam Coen
The plan for this lad was to go to the beach and we weren’t going to get in, so we said we’d run him here. It was a last-minute decision. Hopefully he doesn’t go up too much. Mark (Devlin) loves Laytown and he’ll go there. He’s not a five (furlong) horse but we took a chance, and I knew if they went quick it would suit him. Sam gave him a super ride, and we needed the 7lb.
