Curragh Sat, 23rd Sep, 2023  Laugh A Minute Adam got chinned on the line with Saltonstall this year in the Lincoln, so that was a good reward for him, he gave him a great ride,. He probably ran a little free the last day, on Irish Champions Weekend, and we just said we'd hold on to him a little bit longer and come with one run. He loves the ground as well. He was in great nick, we hadn't worked him since he ran the last day but I knew at home in was in good old form. He's been running solid all year, once he gets his ground. It's great for him to get a pot. There is a race in York for him in the middle of October, which he was second in a couple of years ago. He'll probably go back there as there should be juice in the ground. I've won this Joe McGrath a few times with Bubbly Bellini and Toufan Express. Unfortunately we got 50 or 60 odd thousand then and the prize-money is well down now. You'd be a bit disappointed and a few of these premier handicaps have been slipping down. These races aren't easy to win and you usually only win one a year with a horse like this. They are good horses and they should be well able to pay for themselves.

Roscommon Tue, 4th Jul, 2023  Barnhill Rose said Rutledge. She got into a lovely rhythm and I was kind of happy with how fast we were going for the likes of her who stays seven really well.

Gowran Park Mon, 5th Jun, 2023  Barnhill Rose She's very consistent, always runs her race but doesn't always get her head in front,. After the last day in Roscommon she deserved that. Siobhan was brilliant on her, the two of them went hard but she judged it perfectly. She let them go, didn't panic, and picked them up when it was time to do so. It's unfortunate for Sean, who is our apprentice. He had the choice to ride this one but rode for his uncle, he was loyal to the family and he'll get another day. I'm delighted for Pat Kelly and his family, he picked up her up cheap in Doncaster a couple of years ago and she's paying her way for him. She is what she is but she always runs her race and can hopefully pick up something similar before the season is over.
