Navan Sat, 9th Jul, 2022  Boom Boom Boom We found it hard to pick between the two, we were pretty hopeful as both of them were working well. Actually, when I declared them, I thought the race was being split. If it was split, I'd have had two winners!. I thought he (Gary Halpin) would delay it as late as possible and just drop him on the line if he could, he couldn't have done much more. It was a helluva ride. He can go back over hurdles any time he wants, we'll mix and match. The runner-up has done well, he has run a fine race.

Naas Mon, 25th Apr, 2022  Romantic Proposal I just tick away with her and haven’t done a lot with her. She was good. They have done a good job here with the ground. They just took the sting out of the ground and she was fine on it. The dream is still alive. I knew she was in great form but I thought she might just need it. She has definitely got stronger. She came back from her winter break looking brilliant and hasn’t missed a day. In hindsight 3/1 about a Group 1 winner in a Listed race might have been a bit of value!. She is in two Group 2 six-furlong races next month, the Greenlands and the Duke Of York. The jockey and the trainer are sitting on the fence as regards her best trip so we’ll probably run her over six and then make up our mind about Royal Ascot. The Duke Of York is sponsored by a certain crowd called Clipper Logistics but the Greenlands is a lot nearer home!
