Gowran Park Sat, 3rd Oct, 2026  Luimneach He is a super horse to get and thanks to Dessie (McDonogh, previous trainer) as well, as he had all the hard work done. I just had to change a few things with him. It's funny as, at home, he works unbelievably well and, obviously, with his name (translated to JP McManus' home county of Limerick), he must have been showing that as a young horse. His jumping has let him down at times, but he got into a lovely rhythm today. I wasn't sure if stepping him up to the 0-130 grade was the right thing to do, but there was nothing else for him. The race fell apart with two fallers at the first, but you can only go and win. He seems versatile ground-wise and, like a lot of those older horses, maybe a change of yard rekindles things a bit. In For The Night finished third here yesterday, also for JP, so they are two lucky horses for us to have.

Kilbeggan Fri, 24th Jul, 2026  Luimneach He came from Dessie McDonogh's with the other lad (earlier winner in For The Night), . He's so big, he nearly gets away with it. He travelled like the other lad as well, very sweet. I was happy throughout the race. It was an easy watch. He tends, then, to kinda think about things when he gets to the front. He stuck at it there and got the job done, so it's brilliant.
