Delighted! He (O'Keeffe) gave her a great ride. We wanted to go to Galway with her, so if he (handicapper) gives her a couple of pounds we could get into a 0-110 in Galway. That's the next plan and there is probably something back here for her in August. James is a local lad and she has a lot of local support. We are back on song again, thank goodness. We were going to go in the next race, the 0-110, and she didn't get in. We said we would pitch her in here and I was actually going to put a claimer on her. Then Darragh phoned up for the ride on her. She jumped well on the whole and he was very happy the whole way through with her. She travels well here. Everyone thinks she is a Downpatrick specialist, but I know she could go to Perth or somewhere else C A McBratney, trainer
