'Work in progress' Electric Beauty is learning on the job
It’s another filly that we bought out of Ken(Condon)’s the same as Ina Mina, and she’s a work in progress. She still doesn’t know what it’s all about yet. She showed a bit of guts and battled on well when it looked like she was going to be passed. Hopefully it will be onwards and upwards with her now and we might go to Galway with her. We should have seven or eight runners in Galway over the week. The last couple of years have been good to us in Galway and hopefully we can keep it going.

At the start she was a bit of a handful but is really taking her work well now and behaving well. The guy that rides her out and leads her up, Modi, does a great job. I’ve put her in here next week in a 0-100 handicap for three-year-olds only and we’ll see how she is over the next few days.
Heiselectric beats odds on favourite to make winning debut
He had a stress crack that held him up and we didn’t get him out. We loved him but he’s never been away from home and never been on grass before. He just went around like he was on rails and hopefully he can go on from here. He’s never worked any further than six but looking at his pedigree we thought he would stay. He’s a lovely horse to do anything with and he’s never come off the bridle at home. Hopefully he stays sound and stays right.
Tatum just prevails to bring up late double for Meade
She’s a tough little thing. She cracked her pelvis as a three-year-old and missed most of the season. She stays well and likes that ground. They (The Peerless Partnership) are quite keen to go to Galway, so we’ll probably go there.
