Cork Fri, 14th Aug, 2026 Garden Party She had two lovely runs in maidens last year, but has taken a while to come to hand this year. She had been perfect all year, but just took time to come to hand, and has done well mentally and physically over the past six weeks. She was just ready to start back today, so you'd think there will be plenty of improvement from her. She is between a mile and a mile and a quarter-filly and we'll find black type for her next. Ryan gave her a lovely ride and it is a nice bracket to get. Chris Armstrong, representing

Curragh Sun, 9th Aug, 2026 Shakespeare He's a lovely big horse who does everything right. He's a little bit of a baby. That's why it took two runs for him to get to where he is. He's still not there. He has a lot of ability and is in the 'could be anything' category really. Size, power, quality, speed, stamina, he has everything.
Curragh Sun, 9th Aug, 2026 Ibelieveicanfly The better the race, the better she is going to be. She has such a high cruising pace. In an ordinary run maiden she is just in a gear too high. She has a lot of class. There was plenty of pace on and Ryan was very happy with her.
Leopardstown Thu, 6th Aug, 2026 Isaac Newton That's what he was showing us all the time and we weren't believing it. If you see him how he goes through a race, he canters through a race. He is fast. I'd say he'd even come back shorter if we wanted him but I'd say he's a miler. He'll come back here for the Boomerang.
Thu, 6th Aug, 2026 Isaac Newton It's a good thing he is a miler. He's unusual for a Montjeu. That's what he was showing us all the time and we weren't believing it.

Leopardstown Thu, 6th Aug, 2026 Wall Street He is obviously a good horse - he just took off. For him to do that, he had to be good. They didn't go very quick. He's a big horse anyway, but he will come on tons I'd say.

Leopardstown Thu, 23rd Jul, 2026 Florida Bay Very happy. The last day, they went too fast. They got ganged up and they went too hard. Wayne gave him a good ride. He let him bowl along and he won nicely. He's not slow - even a mile could be far enough for him. He could be a horse for the Futurity.

Leopardstown Thu, 23rd Jul, 2026 Alpha She won obviously. It was a bit messy at the start. She was a little bit slow away. Ryan said he just gave her a little root to wake up and then she came on the bridle and was doing a little bit too much. And then Wayne got away and it was just a mess really. Anyway, she won and it was grand. She got a little bit tired as well. We are training her as the races are work rather than races if you know what I mean. If they are not really wound up and it goes wrong at the start it can be difficult. I thought she did well to win. She will be fine. I look forward to her the next day. The plan will be to go for the Debutante at the Curragh.
