Naas Sun, 25th Jan, 2026  Glen Kiln You breed them and you rear them and bring them to this, I’m thrilled to bits. People kept saying you’ll never have another one like him (Limestone Lad), but this fella is coming near that, he’ll improve again and he’ll make some chaser. It doesn’t get any better than this. These days are hard to come by and when they do you want to enjoy them. You couldn’t have written the script. It’s brilliant for Michael and John (Bowe). I’m just so delighted to have a horse like him and we think he’ll be a really good chaser next year. We’ll see how he is in the morning and make plans with him then.

Naas Sun, 25th Jan, 2026  Glen Kiln Knowing the breed and how genuine the horse is, making the running helps him. If you were going to the sales, you would pick him out as he is a model of a horse and is lovely. We’re very lucky to have him, Harry has four for me at the moment and we have some nice young horses coming along as well. People are always telling me you’ll never have another one like ‘Limestone’ but this fella is coming there and he will make some chaser. Plans are up in the air at the moment and these days are hard to come by so we’ll enjoy it. you couldn’t have written the script and it’s brilliant for Michael and John (Bowe). I’m just so delighted to have a horse like him and we think he’ll be a really good chaser next year. He won his maiden here when ridden the same way and wasn’t for passing that day either. Brian gave him a great ride today, he went a good honest gallop and his jumping was class. He was really good and aggressive on him. We’ll see how he is in the morning and make plans with him then. That level is perfect for him but you’d be hoping he might step up over fences and there is an old saying that a good-ish horse will go on any ground and he probably fits that bill. He has that touch of class so ground doesn’t really matter at times. Thanks to the two lads, they are supporting me really well. I’m delighted to win it.

Navan Sun, 16th Nov, 2025  St Denis's Well I wouldn't have minded which of them won really! Harley Street (finished 12th) probably just didn't handle the ground, but Denis was good - we knew he would handle it. He's back down in that grade. He hasn't been able to win out of a 0-100 over hurdles, but he did it there today anyway. This has been the plan since he came back in. The handicapper probably really has him, so we said go back to where we know he runs well. He's (rated) 120 over fences, so hopefully he can still run away. He's obviously just a better chaser. He's gawky in front and you're happy his ears are pricked and he's not killing himself. The Ladies National at Fairyhouse in two weeks' time, I'd say that is where we will go next. He was second in that a couple of years ago as well.
