Navan Sat, 16th Sep, 2023  Amir Kabir It was a good opportunity for him. He will mix and match,. I think he could step up in trip, he stays well and I think he probably wants two and half miles I'd say. He had a good run in the Galway Hurdle, it was probably a bit short for him, and he had a great run in a charity race at the Curragh. Maybe a two mile Flat race or two and a-half miles over hurdles, but I have no real plan.

Dundalk Tue, 15th Aug, 2023  Longbourn Absolutely brilliant. We just said it is swings and roundabouts - in the last week we were standing in Naas and got beat a short head with a different horse (Turbulence) and this week we win by a short head. That's the rollercoaster!. He's a horse that we have got great sport out of in the last couple of years, he brought us to Bahrain last year, and he is so consistent. It is great to have him and to win a big pot like that today is unbelievable. Amanda (Torrens, owner) is a great supporter of the yard and a great help. We had six seconds in the last two weeks and as much as Katie (Walsh, wife) says 'Cop on, they are running well', it can be frustrating. You just need to be keeping the show on the road and a winner is everything. He is rated 88 and he will be up a few pound again today, he can run in those handicaps (at Irish Champions Festival).

Down Royal Fri, 28th Jul, 2023  Gradulations She was a filly we were looking forward to last year. She won her maiden well in Sligo and then she lost her way. She was a big filly and we actually couldn't find anything (wrong), so we just gave her time and she has come back this year and she has really got on the front foot again. We stepped her up the last time and ran her over a couple of furlongs further and realised she stayed. We stepped her up to a mile and a-half and that was an extended mile and a-half and she just skipped away. She likes a nice bit of ground but she seems pretty versatile. It looked like she would get further and Gary (Carroll, jockey) said that. Stepping up in trip has been the key. She is a filly in good form and she is in a sweet spot and she is improving.
