Lass lands dramatic contest
She was staying well at the finish,. A couple of my horses got sick and while she was doing good work at Christmas and didn't have what the others had, she had an infection after she had swelling in a back leg. She is well-bred, we have her whole family at home and she is bred by by wife. She has a Diamond Boy-half-brother called Handmedownastar who is the marker for her, as he is a good bit better than her. She is an out-and-out stayer and will make a chaser. Luke works seven days a week for us so it was good to give him a chance today. Noel (O'Connor, owner) is from Kanturk, is a brother of my wife's and lives in Boston so this is great.

Touzaine scores back on nice ground
He needs good ground as he has breathing issues,. I tweaked a few things with his wind, he had nice ground today and he'll now head back to Ayr for the Scottish National. He was third in 2023 and was in the race last year but it was soft, so didn't run. When you look at horses running on TV they run well, they run badly, but they never run badly for no reason and breathing is his problem. He loves heavy ground but can't breath on it, so good ground helps him a lot.
