Clonmel Thu, 14th May, 2026  Loi Des Jeux He had a problem with a tooth years ago and hanging left seems to be a mental thing with him since. He was initially going point-to-pointing but was jumping left, and it is all in his head. His owner Darragh McDonagh is best friends with Dom Murphy who owns our Sunday winner Humble Brag and has Heads Up (Cheltenham runner-up) in training with John McConnell. Darragh didn't sell him at the sales, where I was mad about the horse, so thankfully he dropped him down to us and is the first horse he has had with us. He has shown patience with the horse and had a few quid on today, which was great. I wasn't worried about the opposition but was worried about the ground. If the ground is safe, he could go to Limerick in two weeks and if he were to win there, he could get into Galway but either way, he'll be a nice horse next winter. My dad is doing the hard work home milking the cows and it is great to follow up Sunday's win. We have mainly point-to-pointers at the moment but have recently got more to train for the racecourse.

Wexford Thu, 7th May, 2026  D Art D Art This horse came back from the dead, so it’s some achievement - he was badly hurt. He was very brave, novicey at a couple and maybe a bit too brave. The further he went the better he got. He’s always had ability, but he had to come back from a horrific injury.

Cheltenham Tue, 10th Mar, 2026  Kargese Kargese jumped superbly and had far more experience than Kopek which has stood to her at the finish. It’s a nice feeling watching two of your own fight out the finish and you think of Annie Power but surely two of them wouldn’t fall at the last, at least one of them would get over you hope. We all need Cheltenham winners and it’s great for Danny and it’s fabulous to get off the mark for the week. I thought Danny gave her a tremendous ride and he used all the attributes that she has ÃÆ’¢€” when he wanted a jump at the last, he got it. We were happy Lulamba was up with Kargese and my worry was that Kopek might get in front with Kargese and the two of them might run the powder out of each other. She’s tough and she gives herself a hard race, even over hurdles as a juvenile and everything since. We couldn’t believe how well she finished off her season as a juvenile. She’s a really tough nut. She looks like a Champion Chase horse, but we’ll have to decide.
