Bacchanalian wins Naas' opener

Scalpnagoon records consecutive wins

I was a bit worried about the ground, but it was a good performance. He showed a good attitude and is a nice horse. He’s a big strong horse that will jump a fence in time. He’s qualified now for the final of this series at Punchestown and knowing me, he’ll probably run again before then. Michael (Hanrahan, owner) is lucky and anything he sends to us seems to win: you can’t beat a bit of luck.

Plain sailing for Lovely Hurling

Duke Of Leggagh delivers, despite late blunders

he ran well the last day (at Fairyhouse) and, on his Flat form, was entitled to be there or thereabouts in a race like that. He battered the last two hurdles but stuck at it well. He’s a hardy little horse and guts won it for him in the finish. He can mix it between hurdles and the Flat and wants the ground like that (soft).

First foal from Apple's Jade finishes second on debut

the winner is a nice horse and shows a bit of pace at home. It’s great to get the support from Maurice Regan of Newtown Anner (Stud, owner), and he’s a horse that could definitely go back and win on the Flat. He could be a dual-purpose horse.
