Pathfork impressive on debut
He's a nice horse, he always worked better than the grey horse [Laughing Lashes who finished second at Leopardstown]. We were a bit worried about the ground today. He's in the Futurity so we'll see what happens but I think he'll stay a mile after that performance.
Dunboyne impresses at the Curragh
He's a smart horse. Maybe the opposition didn't handle the ground but he likes it. He's always shown us that he's a nice horse. He's come on a lot from Leopardstown and he learnt a lot. If we get nice ground he could run in the Keeneland Phoenix Stakes, and he is also in the National Stakes.
Latin Love wins Kilboy Estate Stakes
The jockey was good on her, she likes an ease in the ground. She was second in this race last year. We'll look at all the fillies Listed races. There is a good programme of them in Ireland, and we'll keep throwing our hat in the ring.
Snow Fairy takes Darley Irish Oaks in style
That was a good performance, it was pretty spectacular really the way she put the race to bed. Ryan [Moore] said she got bumped at one stage and she'd be better on better ground. We were very confident she'd run well on decent ground so I was walking my box a bit today. It was the owner who decided to take the plunge and said go. She is stronger than what she was at Epsom and she has a huge heart. The Yorkshire Oaks is a possibility now. I persuaded the owner to supplement her twice for the Breeders Cup and I don't know if I'll ask her to do it again. We'd have to start to think of going down a similar road to Ouija Board. I'm reliably informed that once everything is ok she'll stay in training as a four year old.
Flynn completes an across the card double
Bay Knight wins Rockingham for Condon
He won easy at Leopardstown on Thursday, he ate up and we weighed him before and after and he was perfect Friday morning. Every bit of rain we got helped him, he was slowly away and I was a bit worried but they went so fast early. I'm delighted he won. We will give him a chance now and we might step up into Stakes company next.
Sublime heads to Galway
He will go for the four year old hurdle at Galway if he gets in in. He got a great ride from Pat and he battled well.
Curtis takes last at the Curragh
We were a little worried about the ground but if anything it improved her on the slow ground. I'm sure she'll probably get a bit of a hike by the handicapper now. She's in the Listed race at Naas on Wednesday, and she'll probably have a go in it.
