Aherne's gelding Gets It Right on fourth start over fences
He had a race at his mercy at Bellewstown last year so it was great to get a race with him. He is an idle oul' fella so we tried something different by putting cheekpieces on today, and it worked. The five fences down the back straight are a big advantage here. He had been frustrating and had a lot of problems but we're delighted to win. He likes that top of the ground so we'll keep going for the summer.

He bends his knee and wouldn't want the ground any faster but it was hard not to take our chance, with the race being for horses rated 120 or less. There is no point taking on the better horses and, it's amazing, not many of those better ones go out on grass at this time of year and many are still around. The maiden hurdle he won didn't turn out to be anything but he had a few nice runs, he stays well and had a good run the last day at Wexford, when his jumping was sketchy early-on.
Tippin And Tappin makes winning return to the track at Limerick
We bought him for a four-year-old point-to-point horse but he has just taken a lot of time. He got his head in front in a point the last day when he got a great ride from Luke Kelleher, who gave him his confidence. I must say Darragh gave him a great ride and we'll tip away now for the summer. Aubrey McMahon bought him for the syndicate and his dad Luke is involved as well so they're delighted.
