Alton towers over Tramore
he's a little dinger! He has improved a good bit from last year when he just wasn't strong enough and is a different horse this season. He will probably go back over hurdles, a little winners of one somewhere and we'll keep him to the smaller trackers at the moment; he handles them well and he loves the quick ground.
Coolfighter lands the odds for Tony & Danny
Danny said in a race like that where he has confidence he rides nice. When he gets a bit of competition he is not as brave as he looks. We will have a look at Saturday or Sunday for him now and hopefully he will come back, more than likely for the rated race on Saturday. It is rated flat race for horses 70 and under and he is rated 67 so he should be spot on. The race on Sunday is a maiden hurdle but he is more likely to go for the one on Saturday.
Cin Cin does it again at Tramore
She won in spite of the handicapper (went up six pounds for winning at Wexford). She is tough and she is improving. I have no clear idea where she will go next.
Stampy completes quick double for McNamara
We were waiting a while for that. A lot of thanks goes to Keith Cooper who rides her out every day. She is only a little pony at 14.2hh, she has the heart of a lion and she will go for something similar.
Days well Ahead of his Tramore rivals
That was grand even though we will be in trouble again with Noel O'Brien! . Small fields suit him, he just thinks about it a bit in big fields. He got into it and got a rhythm going today. He is in again on Sunday in a hurdle that he finished second in last year and if he is alright again the morning he will probably be declared for it.
On The Way Out delights the locals at Tramore
Conor (owner) is involved with the Dungarvan hurlers and it is lovely to win at our local track. Jonathan gave him a lovely ride. He is pretty good to do what he is told and not put them on their head. There is no point in being too close and not finishing. It's grand to win a local race and my father (Matt Kiely) had his first winners here in 1953. He might run well in a big handicap with a lighter weight.
