Naas Sun, 23rd Aug, 2026  Zoar Speaking after the race, O’Brien said, .He’s a grand horse. I don’t have him that long and, in fairness to the Halleys, they did a great job with him,. I only did one breeze with him last weekend and it went nicely, so we said we’d come here. He’s a nice horse to get. I think he’s still a little bit green, he pricked his ears when he got to the front there. I think he’ll get another furlong, but I’m not convinced he’s going to be a seven-furlong/mile horse. I’d say he’ll probably get quicker as he gets older. It was a nice performance. I’d imagine we’ll have a look at stakes company next time and see where he stands at that level.

Naas Mon, 3rd Aug, 2026  Never The Same It’s nice to win her maiden with a well-bred, good-looking filly,. said O’Brien. We’ll see where we go with her now. I’d say we’ll go back (in trip) rather than up again.

Killarney Wed, 15th Jul, 2026  Loyal Touch He’s a lovely horse. He has had plenty of issues,. We bought him cheap out of Mark Johnston’s at the July Sale last year and we thought he’d have something done before now but it’s taken a while to get him right. He’s a stayer and we thought he’d be a hurdler but he’s not a natural jumper. I had said we might make the running but the man on board is just a natural rider and he put him in the place he should have been in the race, regarding the pace. He sat back halfway; after is saying we might make the running, and that’s why he’s top class. I saw Tony Martin saying it two weeks ago, we’ve known this for a long time. Dan King should be in a big job, he’s very good, but the jobs are not there. I’ve been blessed, I’ve had Sean Bowen, Joey Sheridan, Dan King and a couple of more young lads coming along but he’s as good as there is out there jumping. We got him to do 10-2 in the race before and I rang him back and said ‘could you do 9-13 in the last race?’ and he said would, thank God. He’s just well worth to have in the saddle.

Fairyhouse Wed, 8th Jul, 2026  Nail House He did well to win, I thought it was a messy race. He was a bit keen and it was a bit rough early for his debut. He looks like a nice horse and you’d like the start he made. I suppose he’ll probably be sticking to six (furlongs) for the moment. He was green and it was probably hard to get him organised. We probably ended up a place further forward than we expected to be.

Curragh Sun, 24th May, 2026  Great Barrier Reef We pitched him into a deep piece of work the last day at home, which he got a bit lost in, so we weren’t sure if there was a reason but there wasn’t. He came out of the work very well and fresh but we weren’t sure about today. Ryan said he was very green in the stalls and that he missed the break, so gave him a chance in the first part of the race. He said he flew home, but that he had to get hold of him and to teach him. He is obviously very high-class and should get seven (furlongs). If he comes out of this OK, we could let him go to the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot and you would have to be very happy with him. Wayne (Lordan, on Carry The Flag) let his horse roll along and his horse will be very happy going back to five (furlongs).

Naas Sat, 9th May, 2026  Carry The Flag He obviously had a lovely run the first day on very different ground. Coming here, we hoped he'd win and, in fairness, he got the job done. . Wayne felt just on the quicker ground, it's probably the quickest ground he's ever been on even at home, he just couldn't get fully traction, he's just rolling around. When the other filly came on his outside it really helped him. He'll put himself in the Ascot mix now and, we'll see how he progresses and, where he fits in. Jack's filly (Cleary, on Sun Goddess) is a lovely filly too. We'll try and get one more run into her and, hopefully she turns into an Ascot filly too.

Naas Mon, 27th Apr, 2026  Mission Central We were delighted. He’s obviously a fast horse. . We thought that he could be a King’s Stand horse, so we’ll see now. He has loads of speed. It was a good effort first time out in a good race. It was a nice race for him.
