Leopardstown Tue, 3rd Mar, 2026  Raffles Dolce Vita It worked out very well for us with the small field and being left alone. He’s a forward-going horse and I said to JJ after the last day (unplaced at Gowran) that I’d drop him back in trip and let him rattle. He was kind of stopping at the three-quarter-way stage in his other two races, having looked to be travelling really comfortably before that. I didn’t know why, because he’s not slow. The drop back in trip has definitely suited him. The race cut up, but visually it looked good.

Leopardstown Sun, 1st Feb, 2026  Brighterdaysahead We knew she had improved from the last day. Whether she was good enough to beat Lossiemouth we weren’t sure. Jack had a plan that if nobody was going to make it, we were going to make it. She’s very, very tough and she stays. It’s great to be involved in these races and to win them is extra special. I was so nervous coming to the last, just thinking ‘I hope she jumps it’. Lossiemouth is a superstar and our one is a superstar as well. We’re lucky to have her. I was happy the whole way but thought going to the second last ‘here comes Lossiemouth now, we’re in trouble’ but I knew Jack seemed to be happy. I was delighted when I saw him switching to the inside and he could let her roll on. Michael and Anita (O’Leary) are here today. In fairness to them they are big supporters of Irish racing and big supporters of Cullentra House. I’m delighted they are here. He hasn’t been racing in a while, since Cheltenham. It’s brilliant he’s here and Anita as well as a few of the kids.

Naas Mon, 15th Dec, 2025  Prends Garde A Toi We knew he wasn't right after Punchestown but, to be honest, I thought if we finished third or fourth it was a good run today. He had fitness on his side and Jack was brilliant on him. I'd say he is more of a three-mile handicapper down the road than a graded horse, but job done - another winner.
