Dundalk Tue, 13th Jan, 2026  Two And Two we thought a bit of her at home but didn't learn a whole pile about her the last day. She broke very quick then from a wide draw but Nathan took her back to get her to switch off, as she can run a little free. We concentrated on switching her off but probably ended up shuffling too far back. It wasn't ideal, we ended up wide so we put a line through her run as we always liked the way she worked. She was working the same way prior to today and with racing, she has naturally improved. She'll definitely get seven furlongs and will probably get a mile.

Dundalk Fri, 19th Dec, 2025  Far From Dandy We are getting great support (from the Shamrock Thoroughbreds syndicate) up here on Wednesdays and Fridays. They are definitely enjoying it. It is a fabulous racecourse and it is great to give lads something to look forward to during the winter time. It is a fabulous outlet week in, week out. He was very impressive the last night in a slowly-run mile and did well to quicken up in the '80' grade. Obviously, it was a step up in the '90' grade tonight, but they went a nice gallop. Leigh Roche's horse (Rockbury Lad) gave us something to aim at up the straight. It was a really true-run mile and I think that is what he needs. He could even get a little bit further in time, but we are going to stick to a mile. He's definitely reliant on pace because he is a hold-up horse. He's a three-year-old horse and we will find something there in the new year. It will be kind of a Newcastle plan with him, maybe, as well. He's a horse that has a lot of talent, but is still growing up mentally. He's still a little bit babyish, and hopefully that will give him confidence. He's a fine horse.

Dundalk Wed, 26th Nov, 2025  Far From Dandy He was (resolute in the finish) and he has threatened to do that. Hopefully now that will give him plenty of confidence. He's a horse that we have always liked. We purchased him from Middleham Park after Galway, just thought he would be a lovely horse for the all-weather for the winter. We were lacking a fresh batch, most of my older stock have moved on. He was one of the fresh ones coming in. He has been showing up nicely in work and I just said if it clicks with him, and everything goes right, there would be a couple of days in him over the winter, I hope. We'll look for something similar. He will probably be out of the '80' grade, but we will probably look for a '90' grade in December or January. We'll take our time with him, he'll have a couple of runs. He might be a nice horse for Lingfield (Good Friday), a fast-run mile will suit him well. They didn't go overly quick there today, so I'm impressed by the way he quickened up from the back of the field. He's only a young horse by Far Above - a fine, big stamp of a horse so hopefully he will continue to improve and progress. Ben gave him a lovely ride and he has been lucky for me this year, so hopefully we continue to support him.
