Curragh Sun, 15th Mar, 2026  Ribee I won this race previously with On The Go Again (in the 2018 renewal, at Naas) and we knew this fella would take a lot of beating. In those conditions, he’s a hard horse to beat and this has been the plan since last backend - the Lincoln was the goal. He was travelling all the way and I was just a little worried that he had hit the front a bit early, but we knew he’d get the trip well. He’s a grand big horse and that’s what you want for those conditions. I’m delighted for the owner/breeders (Lee Regan Partnership) and this is the first horse they bred, so they had to keep him, and he’s been lucky. We booked Declan McDonogh, as Gary Carroll couldn’t do the weight and I feel sorry for Wesley (Joyce) who is stable jockey but the owner wanted a senior lad. We’ll probably have to go again shortly with Ribee, while he has his ground.
