Clonmel Fri, 10th Jun, 2022  Brianna Lily The same as last night (with winner Yerwanthere), we were expecting a big run but wouldn't have been disappointed if she was beaten as she is still green. Hopefully she will improve again from this and is a very honest mare. She is not overly big but what she lacks in height, she makes up in heart. If a winners' bumper came up she might run in it but more than likely she will go jumping. She is not overly big but we'll see how she comes out of it and how much she improves. We didn't get a run into her before she ran the first day but Bernard McMahon, the head of the syndicate, sadly passed away and she ran on his month's mind at Punchestown. Only for Bernard, who was from Meath, she wouldn't have been here today and I'm delighted she has won for the syndicate.

Tramore Sat, 4th Jun, 2022  Maciver He had cheekpieces and a tongue-strap on for the first time today. They got a bit of rain and they watered it and he seemed to like the ground. He ran well in a 4-year-old maiden at Boulta point-to-point and things just suited him today. We had the dam (Maryiver) as well and she won twice here. Phillip won a beginners chase on her here. His half-sister is in at the Derby Sale so Ivor (Dulohery) will be delighted.

Limerick Thu, 26th May, 2022  Rocco Bay She’s very consistent and when she came back in this season, this was her plan because she was qualified for all the bonuses. She picks up 27 grand (including a €10,000 sales voucher and a €5,000 fillies’ bonus) for winning today which is unbelievable and it’s a huge initiative. The series is a great initiative for fillies and with the clients we have, we don’t have the huge money to go and pay the big money for stores. She was only a €20,000 store and to come out there today and win €27,000 is great. With her pedigree, she’s a half-sister to Tully East, and nearly everything out of the dam has won, I was keen to try win a bumper, so we slotted in Bangor and hoped we’d get her back here for this, and it worked out great. She’ll tip away during the summer and hopefully she’ll nick a bit of black type somewhere along the way.

Cork Sat, 7th May, 2022  Metersandmasks it was a bit of a surprise but she was working well and we knew she was pretty fit. She was a wee bit disappointing in her handicap runs although we thought she'd run well today - but that was about it. She is a summer mare and that distance is fine. She will jump a fence and the plan was to put her over fences as she is brilliant to jump. The owners John and Pauline Twiss are from Killorglin in Kerry.

Ballinrobe Tue, 3rd May, 2022  It's Time Again I’d say the (good) ground made an awful difference to her. She ran poorly at Clonmel a couple of times and we said we’d put her away and wait for better ground. She’s a small mare so I told Dillon to keep her out wide as she gets a bit claustrophobic when she’s in around horses.

Tramore Mon, 11th Apr, 2022  Clonmoyle Aidan Fitzgerald had her point-to-pointing and she was very consistent. She’s not the quickest in the world and she ran in a very competitive chase the last day with the plan of coming back here.

Limerick Thu, 7th Apr, 2022  Toofareastiswest He had a couple of good runs and was second at Clonmel last year. Better ground seemed to suit him better than when pulling up the last day,. We'll keep him going for the summer and he'll go over fences sooner rather than later. A group of lads from East Kerry football own him.
