Dundalk Fri, 7th Nov, 2025  Prevalence Very important - she is related to Juncture. As Colin said, it took us all of her three-year-old career (Juncture) to get her to tick the box we wanted. Total different filly tonight than she was the first night. She acted clueless on the first night and we knew coming (tonight) we had a different filly. Going to the start, I thought she was a bit on it. Then didn't have the pace to hold her position and I said 'for a small filly, you are going to have to be good now because he (Keane) had to take back and go'. She was good and honest. Time will tell how big the race is. We are a long way off where we want to be, but we will give her that chance now. She has all her three-year-old career to hit the boxes we need to be ticking for that pedigree. The good news is, job done at two, and I can stop now. You won't see her again before May.

Dundalk Fri, 31st Oct, 2025  Glyndwr We’re thrilled for Philip Richards, who is from the Isle Of Man. He’s had a few horses with us and deserves that bit of luck,. Hopefully we’ll get another win out of him before Christmas. Gary gave him a very good ride. All in all we’re delighted, it’s been a good night.

Dundalk Fri, 31st Oct, 2025  Diego El Queso It’s no more than he deserved. He’s hit the crossbar a few times. He liked the surface and he could go up in trip so we’ll see if there is another race here. Gary gave him a good ride and we’re delighted for the owner to get that monkey off his back. He’s a lovely horse and will hopefully fill into himself.

Dundalk Wed, 29th Oct, 2025  Daler He's named Daler after the Avondale football club that David (Spratt) is very strong on. He bought him to have fun with the lads, so it is nice. Not before time because he has always promised that, but I don't think he has ever looked as well as that. What he has been doing is dropping out of the stalls, he's bouncing but dropping out, and then closing. Gary just kept the revs up on him and didn't let that happen. We'll keep going like this until he tells us not and then we will drop him into a claimer or something.

Dundalk Fri, 24th Oct, 2025  How'sthebai 100 per cent (learning on the job and stayed well today), got the trip well. The last day he ran he had all the signs that he wanted an extra furlong. He was in a seven furlong 30 grand median auction next week, but went for this one and it has worked out well. Delighted to finish on a good note with him, it was nice to get him done. I was just talking to Ger (Lyons) and we will have a nice slow build up to him next year. It has taken him all this time. He's low to the ground, he loves that surface so he will like nice ground. We'll treat him like a nice horse.

Curragh Thu, 16th Oct, 2025  Silk Braid She was impressive, she showed that at home. We’re delighted for Jerome and Lisa (Hulin) that bred her and they also manage the Sheikh’s horses as well up in Grangecon. It’s also brilliant for Robert, to get him a vital winner for the championship. He comes in and rides out for us twice a week, he’s a good member of the team so it’s great to help him. She wants that ground and she’ll get a bit further next year. We were trying to get her out on the grass, she came into us late. We had her entered next week if something happened but she doesn’t need to run again.
