Curragh Sun, 22nd May, 2022  Zarinsk She’s a lovely honest filly but she hasn’t come in her coat. I’ve been very patient with my fillies and it’s great to start one here this weekend. There is so much improvement in her coat wise and everything, and she’ll be better on nicer ground. She had to do it the hard way which I don’t like doing but when Colin is riding them he has free rein to do what he wants. What she has learned from it we won’t know because she had to do it all on her own but she hit the line strong. I can see buckets of improvement because she is still very much a work in progress. I won’t rush her back, she will tell me. The one thing Colin said is she rides weak so we will bear that in mind.

Cork Wed, 18th May, 2022  Neo Soul He came on an awful lot from his Bellewstown run and we expected that but Colin (Keane) couldn't get off Jarvis because he is a very genuine horse. The winner improved for the blinkers but we were worried about the ground and Gary was sensible and came up on the virgin unpoached ground. Both him and Jarvis are very fast and a track like this suits them. Both will run in those handicaps and are very good fun horses.

Curragh Sat, 26th Mar, 2022  Malex it’s the first horse I’ve training for Kia Joorabchian and AMO Racing and I’m delighted to train a winner for them. He was an expensive yearling (420,000gns) and you could see why as he’s a very good looking horse. He’s taken a bit of time and was as green as grass through the middle of that race. He was one of the first off the bridle. Leigh switched him out, got daylight and he kept picking up. I think the further he goes the better he’ll go. I thought it would be very difficult to beat Jim Bolger’s horse (Boundless Ocean) and he ran a very good race so it might entitle us to have a crack at the Guineas Trial in Leopardstown over a mile. We’ll see where we go from there and he’s a nice horse to have.

Dundalk Wed, 23rd Mar, 2022  Beleaguerment Shane hasn't been riding him the last five or six times and he does get on particularly well with him. He has been unlucky and running into traffic. I was away in Vegas and only got back at 7 this morning, I think I'm heading for being up 36 hours!. Before we got him, he was better on turf and will go back on it for his grade. He generally runs his race and to be fair to him he is fairly consistent.
