Dollar gains deserved victory

He has had wind issues all along but we thought he had a bit of ability and might be a nice summer horse. He has been very consistent for us and he is going from strength to strength. He is very good to jump and will jump a fence but we'll compete away over hurdles. We'll find a handicap or a novice next and the final of the series is a definite possibility. It would be a great one to go for and if he picked up prize-money in the meantime it would be ideal. A few lads suggested forming a syndicate during lockdown last year and while I hadn't much enthusiasm due to all the administration, it opened up ownership to a lot of lads who I didn't think would have any interest. There are 30 members in the syndicate and 50 or 60 people are here today who wouldn't normally be here on a Thursday. We've started another club on the back of this one and there seems to be good demand for it and it gives smaller trainers a chance.

De Bromhead and Blackmore strike again with Anti

It is nice to see him win for connections and I'm delighted for the Halsalls. He jumped brilliant and is a real chaser in the making. It is great to win his maiden hurdle and we'll see how we progress from there.

He did it well and we were expecting a good run. He disappointed us in the spring when all my horses were sick but he came back in a different horse. We got the hay tested and had aspergillus. We took him to the Junction (Tipperary racecourse) there last week and he won a (schooling) maiden hurdle and we were very impressed. Yer man that rode him said, with his rating, he'd take beating wherever he'll go. He disappointed us in his point to points but they can do that the odd time - today was the day anyway!
