Fairyhouse Sun, 3rd Apr, 2022  Song Of Earth said Danny Mullins. He disappointed us some days but it's great to see him being able to do it on a bit of drier ground as well, it opens up plenty of options for him going into the summer.

Wexford Fri, 1st Apr, 2022  Caesar Rock That was a bonus as he’s going chasing and jumps super.

Cork Thu, 24th Mar, 2022  Mahler Allstar He deserved that and is a long distance chaser. He'll have another hurdle race before going chasing next season and Sean said he likes the good ground. We'll pick out another race for him and I'd like to go to Liverpool. I like it there and it is always safe ground. If he didn't win that today I'd be in trouble so hopefully next year we can look forward to going over fences.

Limerick Sun, 13th Mar, 2022  Kilbarry Chloe she had been promising that all year, she is a staying mare who needs soft ground. It came too soon after her Wexford win but today's conditions were perfect and these graded races don't come so often, so you have to take your chances. All credit to all the lads at home and she got a great ride - he (5lbs claimer O'Connor) is an excellent young man and has a bright future. She is a soft ground mare so we won't get carried away and Punchestown's ground can come up quick enough. Fairyhouse is a month away so we'll cool our jets now and see what happens. breeding is our game, we have a lot of broodmares and have this family for 25 years. It has been so good to us and keeps throwing up winners. We just train our own fillies and this is out Cheltenham, we're thrilled. I'm delighted for Tadhg who has been with me for years.

Gowran Park Sat, 12th Mar, 2022  Aloneamongmillions It was tough conditions and a bit of a muddling race but he got the job done.

Navan Sat, 12th Mar, 2022  Daily Present They looked like they went a proper gallop. Sean saying going down the back he let yer man slip on because they had gone fast enough. He just gave him a little flick, he wasn't hard on him, he was happy going to the last that he hadn't really gone for him. When Paul (Townend, on Bronn) came to him he went away from him. Sean thinks he's a proper one and I hope he's right. He has changed hands and that's his first run for them, it was sort of a pressure day so thankfully he won. We'll see about Fairyhouse and Punchestown with him. He was in the Albert Bartlett but off his ratings he had no real entitlement to go to that. I think he's a horse that could improve, he's a very slim sort of horse and is just strengthened a bit more and he's only five-years-old. He'll probably get one more run and that'll be it. I'd say he'll handle better ground as he's a very good mover. I was worried about the ground today, he had won on soft but this was proper tacky winter ground and he went through it well. I love the way he went through the line, it was the same in Fairyhouse. The two horses he beat there have won since. I always love a horse that finishes well and he finishes out through the line well, he has a good attitude.

Wexford Sun, 6th Mar, 2022  Kilbarry Chloe when you breed them it makes it all the more special and she had been knocking on the door. She is a real genuine mare and and while we thought she would have been running in January, we have been waiting for the ground all year. Hopefully we’ll get more ground like that before the season finishes. She needs a trip, soft ground and a fence. She’ll go chasing next season.

Clonmel Thu, 3rd Mar, 2022  Three Loud Knocks I've four point-to-point winners trained but that's my first racecourse winner. I had one winner with Andrew McNamara last year but this is the first of my own and to have Darragh (O'Keeffe) ride him too is a dream come true. I worked for Andrew donkey years ago and I spent my youth with Francis Flood, another marvellous man, and have been in the outside catering business for the last 40 years. I'm since semi-retired and doing this part-time and loving every minute of it. He disappointed in Thurles the last day and I felt he wasn't right on the day and Darragh was absolutely brilliant on him today. You have to be patient on him and while he is genuine, he gets bored and thinks 'ah I'm going home!'. I got the licence in November and this is a dream come true. Life begins at 60, not 40!

Naas Sat, 12th Feb, 2022  Journey With Me We're happy with that. We just said we'd sit him in and see if he'd be happy enough to settle away as he's always making it. In a normal race he would have been but after half a mile Rachael had to go on. He was good, still a bit green in front, but I'm happy with him. Obviously further will suit him, I hope. Nothing is set in stone but I'd say, in my head, I'd be going for the Ballymore. That's two-five. We'll discuss it with connections, today was great and we'll enjoy that.

Fairyhouse Sat, 15th Jan, 2022  Daily Present He ran a lovely race in Naas. Even though the winner won easy, he galloped to the line and Sean was delighted. A step up to three miles will help him but we probably won’t do it as quick as that. He’s a light-framed individual so we won’t run him too often. We’ll have a chat with Rory (Kelleher, owner) and see what plan we’ll make for him. I wouldn’t like to run him on good ground.
