Galway Sat, 30th Jul, 2022  Carrigmoorna Queen It was a very nice performance and she built on her first run. The rain was a nice advantage for her, coming when it did. Patrick kept it simple and she galloped the whole way to the line. I think she's a mare to go off jumping hurdles now. She has a lovely stout jumping pedigree. She has size and scope and I think she'll go on through the winter. That's our plan anyway.

Kilbeggan Mon, 13th Jun, 2022  Some Dove she was a bit reluctant to jump off and it took me two or three goes to actually get her into the race. The more she got into the jumping and the further she went, the happier she was. I was fairly confident jumping the ditch, the third last, and if something had come to me she would have gone on again. She stayed on well. She might have been a bit mareish today but she got the job done and getting her head over the line in front might sweeten her up a bit.

Downpatrick Sun, 12th Jun, 2022  Walk In The Brise The loose horse was in and out and the horse on our inside was hanging out so it wasn't quite as straightforward as I hoped. She loved that good ground and the tight track, and travelled very well. She idled in front. I don't think she needed to improve to win. She'll go jumping now and I imagine with her pedigree she can probably go out in trip as well. She's from the family of Vroom Vroom Mag. She's not overly big but she's very athletic and I think on this ground she probably finishes stronger. One to look forward to.

Punchestown Sun, 29th May, 2022  Pink In The Park A nice weight carrying performance as she was giving the second horse 20lb. She likes that ground.

Punchestown Wed, 27th Apr, 2022  Facile Vega He was quite worked up in the parade ring and down at the start which wouldn't be like him, so I think the season was probably starting to get to him a bit. I said it before Cheltenham that there wasn't much between this fella and Redemption Day on homework. Redemption Day is a very good horse as well. Turning out of the back straight, I'm thinking to myself 'you're a bit flat' and I wanted to hold onto him as long as I could. I'd love it if I'd had the balls to let Jody (Townend on Redemption Day) to go past me. I didn't even want to get involved as early as we did. I was happy I would beat American Mike for gears but I thought that Redemption Day might be a little bit quicker than me. He was flat today and he still won, he got headed and he battled back. He's the full package, he can do it tough if he needs to.

Punchestown Wed, 27th Apr, 2022  Life In The Park He was a bit disappointing at Christmas and we put him away. He seems to appreciate this ground. I’m delighted for the Maloneys and for Mikey (O'Connor) who is a big part of our team.

Kilbeggan Thu, 21st Apr, 2022  Walk On The Moone She was very green early on and at halfway I thought I was in trouble. The further we went the better she has gone,. Her pedigree should suggest stamina as well. It's a tricky track first time and she's not in as long as some of our other ones would be so there might be improvement in her. We'll see what Willie says, there are a couple of winners bumpers early next month but she could go jumping as well. It's a great start anyway.

Cork Mon, 18th Apr, 2022  Monbeg Park it is only by accident we have him as he did a suspensory joint winning his point to point. You could see him doing it as he jumped the last fence where he just wrenched. Other than that he would have gone to the sales and made a lot of money. He wasn't fully right in Gowran but came out of it well and looks a different horse now. We will keep him for racing ourselves now and if he stays in one piece, you could see him winning something big. We'll turn him out now and go hurdling next year.

Fairyhouse Sat, 16th Apr, 2022  Jetara That was a bit unexpected. She's bred in the purple and we'd done as much as we could with her at home, she was ready to just have a run today,. She won like a smart filly. She's a big lady, I'll let mum and Gerry decide, but I wouldn't imagine we'll go to Punchestown. She's a lovely filly and it's great for Gerry to have her as he sold all the mares two years ago. He has her and two others. It's great he has another good one.
