Angels far too good for Thurles rivals
She is a nice scopey filly and one to look forward to next year. She deserved it on her first two runs. She seems to cope with most types of ground and should be able to get black type at some stage.
Anchorage makes the breakthrough under Heffernan
Deserved win for Adelisa as O'Brien doubles-up
It was a nice tough performance. She's not the biggest but she's all heart and copes with most surfaces. Mikey said she'll end up staying further but he wouldn't worry about it at the moment. He got her away from the stalls and into a nice position. The other horse came to her but she battled and went away at the end. It's nice to get her head in front. It's great for Annus Mirabilis who are great supporters of the yard and have been for years.
Fennor follows-up on Gowran success
He's a very big horse and has taken a lot of time. He's still not furnished so we won't do much more with him this year. There might be one more run left but if he didn't run I wouldn't be worried as he should be a better horse next year. He's a big baby and the owners (the Positivity Syndicate) have been very patient so it's paid off for them now. He's green and still has a bit to learn.
Wojood makes the most of his opportunity
I was very impressed the way he battled there today and Joe gave him a great ride. It's great for the syndicate who own the local pub, the Clough Inn in Cloughjordan. He only cost 4,800 pounds and is after winning three races now and been placed a bit. He's a good fun dual-purpose horse.
Sheehy doubles-up aboard Anyonecanhaveitall
He stays well and Mikey gets a good tune out of him. He's in the Horses-In-Training Sale at Goffs later in the month and the owner might send him there. Two miles gives him time to warm up into it and he's a right good fun horse.
Rekero completes treble for Joseph O'Brien
He wears blinkers but it's only because he's so laidback at the moment. He needs them to help the jockey more than anything else. He's as genuine a horse as you'll get. He got headed there by a horse that has a bit of class and for a three-year-old he stayed the trip well. He's going away at the line. He has a big future whether he stays on the Flat over trips or goes jumping.
