Different horse, same result as Sugar Island wins for O'Brien and Moore
Pink Oxalis lands fillies handicap under Kearney
She is very ground versatile but wasn’t right the last day in Leopardstown. Jack gave her a lovely ride and she travelled very smooth. We’ll see what is coming up and we might enter her in the Listed fillies race at Galway as she is a filly in form. The owners are here which is great. They are from Saudi and sent me my first horse even before I had a runner.
One Looks steps up in trip to win Meadow Court Stakes
It was great to come here and win again at the Curragh. She seems to like the Curragh and is a lovely filly. Ascot didn’t work out for her probably on ground quicker than she’d like and a trip as short as she’d want to go. She ran over nine and a half furlongs at Gowran last year and we felt on pedigree that stepping up in trip would suit her. She was brave today and didn’t have the easiest passage through but won nicely. She’s won a Group 3 with a penalty so we’re going to have to look at better races. She’s in the Nassau, she could run here in the Blandford Stakes on Champions Weekend and races on Arc weekend. We’ll have a think and pick our spots but she’s a four-year-old now and will probably run more than she has in the past.
Lady In Paris wins for second time under Foley
She ran really well here on Derby weekend when she was third and that was against the older horses. It’s extraordinary how she’s bred that she gets a mile and a quarter well being by Blue Point out of a Kyllachy mare. She could go up to a mile and a half on that showing because they went a good gallop and she outstayed all of them.

Queen Of The Bogs lands Curragh finale in runaway fashion
. I jumped smart, and she was very straight forward. I got a breather at the top of the hill, and I thought she quickened well. She rode like a nice filly. I think she has the pace to come back a furlong if she wants to.
