Timmons mare Steps Back In Time to win at Navan

She travelled really well and Colin said she was in her comfort zone all the way. She had slipped down to a very competitive mark and it is good for her confidence to get her head in front. She has won and been placed here before. We always thought she would probably do better than she has done so far, but last year just didn't go to plan. She came back to us this year looking great and we have been very happy with her. I think the ground was just too soft for her in Naas the last time, but she appreciated the better ground here today. I think that is Colin's fifth winner for us - he is going for the championship, so we don't like to cost him winners! We try and give him a few if we can.

Saturn back to winning ways at Navan

He does stay well. I feel a bit emotional getting him back because he was all set to go to the Ebor and he had a little bit of a setback, and we were lucky to keep him. It is a testament to the vets at Anglesey Lodge that he is here, they worked tirelessly with him. He had won the 'win and you're in Ebor race' (at Curragh) last year and he was going for that, and it was just unfortunate we had a turn of events. Fair play to his owner/breeders, they have been patient and he has got back to winning ways. He was only ready to start today. We didn't have him fully wound up because we said it would probably be the end of April or middle of May before we get him out. Then we saw the dry spell last week and we put him on the box to the Curragh at the end of last week. Scott said he took two big blows and he is going to improve no end. He's big and strong and is still a full horse. I think we are only starting to see the best of him. He was a very, very playful young horse and today, professional-wise, he was a different horse. I'd imagine he will end up in one of the staying races at Royal Ascot. I hope we have a very exciting season with him.

He actually surprised us a little bit. I always thought he wanted soft ground with pedigree and everything. We kind of figured out in the middle of last year that he didn't. In fairness to Kevin Sexton, he said he's definitely a better horse on good ground. He ran well over hurdles the last day too. He was second in the Curragh in a two-mile handicap last year. I hope the race is still there and we will try and get into that. He doesn't mind a cut either, so he's a great summer horse. He's versatile and, the way they water anyway, you are going to have to be. He hasn't improved dramatically and I don't think it was probably the best contest but it was ideal anyway. They (Thirteen Apostles Racing Syndicate) will need a new liver now!

Dakota Blue lands maiden success under Coen

He was rated 90 coming into a race like that. He had been going well and Ben was happy with his last piece of work. Had a bit of a blow, so hopefully he will improve from that. His form was pretty good, the maidens he ran in were good. The Curragh was a good one and even the last day when he was second in Dundalk, I thought he might win that race, but it looked like a smart horse won that day. A mile and a-quarter is good for him, he likes fast ground - something to look forward to. He might even get a mile and a-half. Today was a big day. We wanted to get the day out of the way and it is always nice to win their maiden. Nice pot.

I was a little bit worried that a mile and two here might just stretch her. She stuck at it well.
