Red Earth makes winning debut under Heffernan
He’s been going nicely at home,. The two colts (Cantillever; finished 10th) have been working away together, I’d say the other fella is a bit green. He’s in the Goffs Million and we’ll probably go somewhere in between now and then. The draw was probably an advantage but the second had a good run previously.
Havana Anna easily wins Marwell Stakes at Naas
Rosato edges tight finish in sprint handicap
She’s a very hardy girl and I’d say being back on that easier ground helped her,. We thought she was well handicapped and she ran a cracker first time out (finished 8th at the Curragh) when we knew she needed the run. As she can she sulked a bit the last time. Niall knows her well and was very good on her today, the two of them were good and strong in the finish. Hopefully we’ll get another one or two out of her.
UK Raider Sky Majesty lands Yeomanstown Stud Stakes
Roderick Galway bound after return to winner's enclosure
I have the Donegal colours on, we’re supporting them for Sunday. I’ve done my part winning today!. He’s been knocking on the door, he’s a real character. He’s there or thereabouts anytime and runs his race all the time. He’s a bit of a handful. It’s good to get him over the line. Hopefully now it’s onwards to Galway. Hopefully he’ll get in at the backend of the week. He likes soft ground. I have four altogether for Galway, most of them are out of claimers. We have God Knows on Tuesday and Dick Donohoe has a couple of mine as well, hopefully they get into the mix as well.
Comanche Brave brings up double for O'Brien and Ryan
Engines On makes winning debut for Kinsella
He’s a nice horse. Obviously he was with Prunella Dobbs and when she retired I was lucky to get him,. He won well last year in the Curragh for her. We thought he might take a blow today and Chris said he did but he was just tough and genuine. Hopefully he can improve a little bit for it. We’ll have to see what Mr O’Gorman (handicapper) is going to do. I have him entered in Galway and we’ll see if he goes there. He needs a dig in the ground.
