Ballinrobe Mon, 24th Jul, 2023  Magnetic North He's in top order. They made it hard for him up front, but he still found plenty. We thought the trip was on the sharp side but I suppose the favourite (Bringsty) didn't run his race and that was a help. We'd like to hold onto him, but we'll see what happens.

Tramore Tue, 11th Jul, 2023  Magnetic North It is nice for Paul (Sweeney, owner) to get a quick return after claiming him at Limerick and I'm delighted for him. Paul is from Letterkenny and he has had horses with me for a few years now. We saw this race after Limerick and there are not many other claimers coming up to suit him. He will probably go back to handicaps now if he is not claimed. There are a few options in Galway for him and he could go there, if Paul wants a day out we will probably go there.

Limerick Wed, 14th Jun, 2023  Magnetic North He is rock solid, has won plenty for us and the Dooley lads who own him have plenty of premier handicap horses. They have got great fun out of him and he is in at a claimable price. . If he is claimed he is claimed, and I won't cry on the way home but we have had great fun and he is well handicapped over hurdles for someone who wants to go hurdling. The ground went soft the last day he ran over hurdles and he wasn't right.

Leopardstown Fri, 19th May, 2023  Magnetic North I think the ground is the key factor. When he was a younger horse you would have said he wanted a bit of cut but he didn't want it today,. We weren't going to run him but I just felt that this track would suit and the trip as well. He's in again at Roscommon on Monday and he might be declared. The last time he won Adam rode his first winner on him, last year in Navan. He's a great fun horse. I'd say the boys will sell him now at some stage as they have a lot of horses and he's not going to be a premier handicap horse. Adam did a great job on him there. He's the type of horse that will come out some days and run a really good race and other days he'll let you down. He definitely wants nice ground.
