Limerick Thu, 15th Apr, 2021  Rebel Rose Derek was absolutely brilliant on her and used all his experience nipping in and out between the wings, that was the winning and losing of the race,. She is a good mare and when we came down we were debating about running her as she will be better on better ground. We might keep her going during the summer now and kick on over hurdles. I can't see her going on really heavy ground but she will be a right good fun horse and I'm delighted for the lads involved.

Wexford Wed, 10th Mar, 2021  The Gossiper He is a lovely horse to look forward to. He was very unlucky in his point-to-points - he tipped up both days he ran, Sam Curling had him then. With the point-to-points shutting down, his owner decided to give me a go with him. It's great for John (McEnery), who is in Rossenarra Stud in Kilkenny. We have a bit of dealings with John through the Mee's as he looks after their horses on their down time. He done that well today. Patrick had sat on him at home and was very keen to ride him here today. He is exciting and I'd imagine we will probably keep him as a novice for next season. When the ground gets better, he will improve again being by Dylan Thomas. It was probably just ability that got him through today.

Wexford Wed, 10th Mar, 2021  Jody Ted He ran well the first day and then we went back for a bumper and it just didn't work out. The last day was a little bit of a disaster up in Leopardstown. Anyway, he made up for it today. It was a funny type of race. I thought he had plenty to do but this course rides testing since they switched the other way. When he was making up the ground, I could see the horses in front tying up and I thought at least he'll get to them. It's Mark's first win for his father in those colours, so it's an important win for him. I'm sure there is great excitement in the McDonagh household. We'll see how he comes out of this. He probably had a tough race today. We will probably look at some of those rated novice races. We'll see what kind of mark the handicapper gives him first.

Dundalk Mon, 11th Jan, 2021  Red Heel She works like an 80 or 90 horse at home and we were a bit disappointed with her the last few times.

Naas Mon, 14th Dec, 2020  Delvino She relished the conditions but wouldn’t have learned a lot today with only four hurdles.
