Arizona Royal Ascot bound after impressive Curragh win

Baby Power wins on big day for the Caldwells

Maybe we’ll win the elections tonight — it could be a good day yet,.

Hathiq lands one on big day for McAuley and Hogan

It’s great to be able to win on a horse like this on a big weekend. He looks decent. We were thinking he’d probably go to the Rockingham after Tipperary but some lads were saying he might not be certain to get in.

Magical takes Tattersalls Gold Cup at her ease

We are delighted to have her as a four-year-old. She’s a big, powerful mare that is full of quality, with great strength and a super mind,. She had done enough last year to go off to stud so it’s a great credit to all the lads to keep her in training. The plan made out was the three races and then see about Ascot for the Prince Of Wales. There is an autumn campaign and she has to have a break somewhere before maybe the Irish Champion and the Arc. Hopefully she will come out of today well and then we can have a think about Ascot. It’s all stuff to dream about.

No trouble for Hermosa in bringing up the Guineas double

She’s done very well from two to three. She’s really grown and strengthened a lot and I thought she was very impressive. She gave me a good feel the whole way up there and she never really felt in any danger. She’s a big filly — a very strong girl. She gave me the feel of a real high class horse. She never felt like she was going to get beat and when they do that through a race it’s usually a good sign. The plan was changed to come here rather than go to the Oaks, and then go from here to the Prix de Diane in three weeks time. I’m so delighted that we did (change plans). She’s a lovely mare and we felt that she progressed from Newmarket. I think she showed that today. She could go further and her sister (Hydrangea) got a mile and a half. We’ll see how she gets on in France before thinking about that.

Madden gets it just right on "ATM machine" Valentine

The horse that beat him in Roscommon the last day (Johnny Drama) must be some horse. He took him out of his comfort zone!. I spoke to Jamie Spencer after the Guineas and he said if you are not in the first three or four here you’re wasting your time. It wasn’t going to suit the other horse Master Speaker but it was going to suit Aussie and I told Tom to be very positive with him all the way. He won over 80 grand for us last year, and he’s tipping away getting cheques nearly every time this year. He’s like an ATM machine and he wasn’t an expensive horse. We’re delighted to have him. He’ll go to Galway and will run in the Galway Mile and maybe the seven (furlongs) as well. He might run here Derby weekend as well.

Slattery earns praise from Weld after winning on Highway

I told Andrew to wait all day on him. He did his homework on the last two years of the horses form and had seen that Pat (Smullen) got up late on him at Killarney,. For a guy of his age to have done so much research was great, and he was thrilled when I said to try and do the same as Pat did.
