Stakers makes winning debut over timber

Swiftmarc does the business again for Hughes

He's an improving horse. Eagle's Pass' fall left it wide open as some of the rest hadn't been sparkling on form recently,.

Redfield gives Hanlon welcome winner

I've had 24 placed horses in the last 33 days. So I'm delighted to break the ice. I've had three seconds in the last four days. . He's in again at Listowel on Monday and he'll probably go if he's ok in the morning. I thought I was never going to have another winner!

Banner off mark over fences

Denis gave him a very good ride. He's a very good jockey and is very good over a fence,. He gave him a very patient ride as he's a very keen horse. He ran well in Killarney last time where he got knocked around a bit. He'll go for a winners of one in Roscommon next.

Strongpoint completes Swan double

That's grand. He's a big chasing type. Davy thought he could come back in trip. He's only bred to get a mile-and-a-half and we might try two-and-a-half with him,. He has always swished his tail. It makes him go faster! We'll find something small for him.

Russell doubles up on Hall

We were hoping today would be the day as he had a great run at Clonmel last time,. He ran during the winter but had little bits of problems and is probably well handicapped as a result. It's not that he doesn't go on soft he just had little problems. I'm delighted with that as that was the plan and he's done it well. I was thinking about the Midlands National for him but we'll use his handicap mark. He was very good as a young horse and won a point-to-point and bumper first time but had injury after injury. He chipped a bone and it took a long time. Please God he stays well and we'll have a bit of fun with him over the summer.

Freedom looks classy in bumper

He's a fair horse - he's going to be a proper horse. He done it well,. He gave a fair blow there and should come on. He could go to Galway if he's not sold. We'll see what happens.
