Going - Good to Yielding. Overcast
Glam lands another claimer for Ado
She's after winning a couple of these and is a gamey little filly. She's had a couple of good runs this year and is there to be claimed. She'll be a real fun filly. She won a good fillies race last year and was entitled to fight out the finish. I thought McAuley's horse (Independent Expert) was really the one to beat but she was game and she fought well. The boys bought her in an online sale last year out of Jessie's and she's after winning three for them so happy days. If she goes, she goes; if she doesn't, we'll rattle on to a couple of them fillies’ races. Hopefully I can get one down here because she loves this place.
Sanctijude gains deserved win for McCreery and Lee
We were talking beforehand how do we win it. It was grand to get it done. Billy said he'd go forward but I said if someone wants to go forward, I'd love it to ride like a bit of work and have her come into it. That's the way it worked out, so I'm delighted. I'm delighted for Michael and Dymphna Deegan; they're getting on a flight at 5.30 to fly out to Kenya, I think, to visit their sister who is seventy, so a nice present for them.
A Classic return to Gowran may be on the cards for Rolltight
We were pretty confident coming here. He had a very good run the first day. We thought he'd be a bit more streetwise today. Ben said quickening down into the straight he got a little bit unbalanced, but he always thought he had the second, and they were a good bit clear of the third. He's in the big race, the Classic (at Gowran on June 1). We'll see how he is. Maybe a little close but if he comes out of it well and, I'll speak to the owners, that might be his next shot.
