Clonmel Tue, 14th Apr, 2026  My Gaffer It is nice for Walter (O'Connor), it is a great win and I fancied him out of the way,. He had won a schooling race at Nenagh, came here fit and well and while I know he had 11st 9lb, I took the 5lb off. He is rated 122 over fences. . He was up to three miles today and that's his job.

Cork Thu, 19th Mar, 2026  Mystic Malina She struggled in Naas the last day and Phillip just pulled her up in time. He said that was the saving of her today. He looked after her. She needs nice ground and she put up a nice performance there. From a long way out I thought she was travelling and jumping very well, she was really enjoying it. It was an ordinary race she won in Clonmel and we were a bit disappointed in Naas but in fairness Phillip said ‘don’t worry about it’ as she needs a bit of nice ground. I have to give him the credit. I might go to Fairyhouse with her, there is a three-mile novice handicap there and she might get into that now. She hasn’t ran that often. That’s only her fourth run over hurdles and she’s won two races now.

Wexford Tue, 17th Mar, 2026  Connemara Shore Phillip Enright had a lot of work done with her. We put cheekpieces on her the last day and she travelled better. She unseated at Navan one day and she just doesn't watch what she is doing, she is very genuine but is too busy watching everyone else's business. Phillip rang me during the week about putting blinkers on her. She travelled everywhere today and the blinkers done there job. It's just a pity Phillip wasn't here today but he had to go to the north. Fair play to her owners, I told them to stick with her, that she just needed time.

Clonmel Thu, 26th Feb, 2026  Fenway Park It was nice for him to do something, but it was a fairly weak contest. He hadn't been putting it in in chases recently so at least when others came to him today, he did enough to win and stuck his head down and battled. He has been a bit disappointing, but we got today out of him and he is cheap now (at €10,000) that he has won a race. The syndicate is a hab dash of people from all over and half were included in I'm A Game Changer, who won a graded race.

Navan Sun, 8th Feb, 2026  Oscars Brother it was a brilliant performance and was nice to get it out of the way. He loved the ground, had the ears pricked the whole way and it looked like he could have gone around again. He's a very easy horse to ride so I just leave it up to Dan. He just likes to do his own thing but, if someone wanted to give us a lead, we would have been happy enough. He seems to be taking racing well, is improving and he jumped great. after the last day, we had this race pencilled in and I suppose we can make more plans now. He takes his racing well, so we will see how he is during the week and go from there. The timing of the Brown Advisory at Cheltenham would be good. He keeps improving, so you never know where he could end up.

It looked like he could have gone around again. He’s a very easy horse to ride, I just leave it up to Dan. He just likes to do his own thing there but, if someone wanted to give us a lead, we would be happy enough. He seems to be taking it (racing) well and improving. He jumped great there.

Clonmel Tue, 2nd Dec, 2025  Mystic Malina She is a grand mare and hopefully can go forward from that. She had won a point-to-point and had run well in a bumper and won easily enough today,. Someone was sure (she'd win) but it wasn't me who backed her. I told Harry to tip away and to keep an eye on the favourite (Justatan) as I thought he was the one to beat. It worked out well. My brother Matt bred her and she is owned by a local publican Anthony Smart from Ballincurrig. The family goes back years for us, as long as I can remember and back to the 1970s. My father and John Magnier had the base mare Even More between them. I don't know how many steps she goes back but it is a long time ago.
