Pirate Jenny in charge at Cork

She is still immature and 'summer yielding' was a description for today's ground, so it is loose, and she got away with it. She got a lovely lead and Colin rode her with kid-gloves and her attitude was very good. She acted impeccably today which was most important and another most important thing was she picks up a £25,000 Tattersalls October Book 1 Sale bonus. That is a plus and while we'll see how she comes out of the race, we'll probably finish with her until next year. The main thing now is to see how she develops - she is very feminine and does need a winter under a belt.

Red-letter day for trainer McGuinness

This is my first winner and her second. I only started in July and it felt like a long time from July to here but it is great to get the first one. We've had 15 runners. I train on the beach in Rosslare and have four flat horses. My father had horses with Willie Martin for years and I was working for him so during covid I took out a license. This is a covid project. She won over 6f in Naas previously, had been off a year and had a couple of nice runs over the summer. It is hard to get everything right but I must commend the authorities for dividing these races. It gives the small man a chance and without them, she wouldn't have got a run.

Keane takes Secret Road to a double

He had a good run on his handicap debut and the form has actually worked out alright. It was our mistake to go to Sligo dropping back half a furlong on a tight track when he wasn't battle-hardened enough, didn't know what was happening and got brought wide the whole way around. He came here on a track her likes, the ground didn't make a difference to him and he'd probably go an extra furlong. It is nice to get a winner for the lads who are owner/breeders.

Dragons Call has all answers in Cork

She has ability but got a bad injury last year and we didn't think she'd ever be back.

Foley up and running with Yermanthere

I've hit the crossbar a few times lately but it is nice to get the first winner. I got my interim license when my father (Tom Foley) passed away and I did the course two months ago. I have 15 in training, a 50/50 mix of flat and jumpers and they have been running well without winning. Hopefully we can get a few more over the winter. I am full-time training now and it is a family operation. My sisters are all involved and Goretti rides him every day - they work hard so it is great for the yard. I'm happy to training anything and have room for more. We'll see what the handicapper does with him, we were waiting for an ease in the ground and we'll probably go for a handicap next. He should improve from three to four and could be sold. We are very lucky to have a horse like him in the yard, especially with owners like Ray McSharry (namesake and son of former Tanaiste) and Jim Browne, from Donadee. I can't thank them enough.

Sheehy wins his first Listed race on Queenship

Manning doubles up on Stylistic Approach

If there's time, it'll be more of the same with this horse and then he'll head to the horses-in-training sales. He will get further (than today's mile) and will probably go jumping.
