Quotes on Barnahash Mason (IRE)
He jumped well early and his jumping is generally good but, whether he tweaked something or not, I thought he was beaten after making a mistake at the top of the hill. For the mistakes he made, he did it well in the end and you'd be very impressed. You wouldn't be going to any other track only here, due to the bad weather, as he isn't suited by heavy winter ground. He had been ready for a point-to-pointing some time ago but had a small setback, although hopefully now that was all for luck as he is winning. I think he'll be better on nice ground.

Quotes on Brother Walfrid (IRE)
He had a good run at Easter. I shouldn’t have run him in a bumper the last day, it was just that the owners were going so we said we would. He’s a big three-mile horse in the making, he jumps and stays well. It was a good performance, they pulled well clear of the third. We’ll try and win again with him somewhere.

Quotes on Hi Ho Idaho (IRE)
He is a lovely horse who is improving with every run and after Clonmel, we said we'd aim for here as his owners from Kerry and Cork. Brian Quill, from Listowel, heads the partnership and they are great new owners who have bought a couple of horses. Benny Walsh recommended him after his point-to-points, said he'd win plenty of races, so I went off his word and thankfully it has worked out. I think he'll keep improving, we'll aim for Listowel and he'll make a nice chaser next year.

Quotes on Little Ginger (IRE)
The owner was very lucky with his half-brother, Dromore Lad, and this lad is obviously going the right way. He’s not over-big but he’s improving the whole time. We’ll see now if Frank sells him or keeps him, he’s a nice little one to have. He battled well and I’m delighted with him. On his first run, Heather (Heffernan - partner) rode him and he was obviously very green. His second run was on very heavy ground in Limerick, which I didn’t think he’d handle. He’s learning as he goes and improving, which is good. We should have plenty of fun with him.

Quotes on Pat O's Rock (IRE)
it was a good performance by Pat O’s Rock, and she also looked nice when she won her bumper in Kilbeggan earlier this summer. It was her first run over hurdles today, she jumped super all the way and got into a lovely rhythm. She showed a good attitude and is a really nice filly to look forward to. I'm delighted for Michael O'Flynn (owner).
