Fairyhouse Sun, 5th Apr, 2026  Koktail Brut He’s a good horse, he was giving a penalty away there,. It was nip and tuck down to the last and Noel Meade’s horse fell. Jack thought he had the beating of him and I thought it was a good performance. He could be a nice chaser next year. He was bought to be a big chaser down the road, he’s a gorgeous horse. I doubt if we’ll see him again this year. He’s a lovely horse for the future.

Downpatrick Sun, 29th Mar, 2026  Cause For Comment that is brilliant, I’m delighted and the owners and whole (Mullins) family have been very good to me. I think Cause For Comment is a better horse this year as he was only five last year and has improved a lot. Today was a good race for a maiden hunters chase, so it is great. He was idle in front but had a good man on his back. I leave plans to the jockey, he picks those.

Cheltenham Wed, 11th Mar, 2026  Kitzbuhel It was a very brave performance from Kitzbuhel to jump out and make all. Heading to the last and looking at Paul (Townend, on Final Demand) I thought he had him covered, but by the line Kitzbuhel was going away again. When you have a grey horse who loves to make the running, there’s been some brilliant ones down the years and they build up a big following. It’s been a lucky colour for me, my first winner as a trainer was a grey and as an owner. It’s great for Joe and Marie (Donnelly) given the bad luck they’ve had with State Man and Sir Gino this year, to have a third one up to winning Grade Ones is great. At least he was back to himself as his previous run at Sandown he didn’t jump out and he didn’t look himself in the parade ring, but Harry said he knew going to the start he was in great form. Given what he did at Kempton, which is right-handed and flat, to come here and down left on a left-handed undulating course speaks volumes. You’d have to be looking at the Gold Cup, but given how he whizzed around Kempton at Christmas the King George will definitely be on his agenda.

Naas Wed, 4th Mar, 2026  Let's Go Mans He had the run in the point-to-point the last day and he’s a real stayer. Keith gave him a great ride and being switched inside was probably the difference between winning and losing. He’s a work in progress, but hopefully he can progress from here and maybe he’ll win another one. We’ll get him back home and, if he’s sound, he’ll be out for something similar before too long. He’s lowly enough rated but hopefully he’ll be able to progress.
