Fine win for Bon Viveur in Tramore's opener
that was good although I was actually cursing when the hurdles were taken out because he jumps really well. He did it well.
Mullins and Meyler add to yesterday's haul, at Tramore
Donagh said she really enjoyed the ground and I thought she just toughed it out really well. She is a lovely staying mare. I had won on her here in October but Donagh did it a lot easier today! She was brilliant that day and I think she is improving all the time. The lads (the Seven Heads Group Syndicate) had a winner yesterday at Kempton with Dream On Baby, so they've had a great two days. They are great owners and are from Cork. Pat Tobin bred both fillies and the syndicate have them leased. They are knocking great sport out of them.

Canavan finds the key to Aclass
going down to the last I thought Aclass could jam-on or anything, because he was going to win in Boulta one day but ran off the track. I used to ride him myself at home and him leaping around every day, but since Jordan arrived into my yard three months ago, he now rides him. I had to give him at least one go in a race. Jordan had been in America but rang me to say he was living locally and could he work for me. He works hard, is a very good rider, so hopefully gets more opportunities. Today’s win was a bonus for Aclass and while it wasn’t a very good beginners chase, he is a very good jumper and hopefully today’s win will give him confidence.
Hannon registers first training success
I only got the track licence in September and I got it really for Bigbraveboy, and one other horse. I just said we'd have a bit of sport. After a few runs in point-to-points, the monetary value might be gone in a horse but it doesn't mean you can't have plenty of sport with them afterwards. Going handicap chasing is a good second outlet. I won a point-to-point with him and he is a grand horse who just needs soft, soft ground. I thought we mightn't have conditions for him but he'll just gallop and stay. He is a brilliant leaper and JJ said that he is some spin. Ray Fitzgerald is a good supporter of mine and we are good friends. He has a few horses with me for point-to-points and that's my main game.
