Tramore Sat, 30th May, 2026  Butch Coolidge He’s a year older now and it (improvement) goes with that family,. said Kelly. A hood was a big help to him as well, he just lost his race at the start a few days last year. I’m delighted for the lads, the horse was working really well at home and we would have been disappointed going home if he didn’t go close. You never know with racehorses, I had a horse that we liked a lot in Listowel today and it just didn’t happen for him. He’s a nice horse, jumps well and jumps a fence well. We’re starting the season on the right note. He won it with a nice bit in hand. We entered him in it thinking it might be a worse race but it wasn’t the worst race in the world for an ‘unplaced maiden’. I’m delighted and very grateful to the lads for sending on these horses.

Fri, 29th May, 2026  Femme Magnifique I’m delighted to have her. I’m very grateful that the lads, the Dillon Quirke syndicate, sent her to me,. She came from Paul Kiely’s and came in great nick. We got the rub of the green today and she was game. I’m delighted for the lads, it’s unfortunate for Cian who was due to ride her but Danny Gilligan did a great job. He sat where he was comfortable, let her find her feet and came home well. She’ll probably stay a bit further. She works better than 105 horse. We have her about six weeks and I said she’ll either bring it to the course or she won’t. If you were a backing man you’d be backing her on her work, but I don’t back horses. You don’t know with horses that are after being in a couple of yards. I’m gutted for Cian but delighted for him at the same time as he’s part of the syndicate. He owns the mare and leased her out.
