Patience pays off with Confidence High
He did it well. He was a horse we liked last year, and we named him appropriately, but he disappointed us,. Anybody that rode him said that he was a lovely horse. We finished him early, gelded him, and just gave him time. The delay in racing might have worked in his favour. He delivered, you can never be confident until you get to the racecourse. I'm very happy. It was a nice straight-forward ride and I'm delighted. He's in again Sunday so he could come back here and then we'll go from there. He's a horse that I hope has a future, we certainly like him. He has a good attitude, is a good mover and a very straight-forward horse.
Slattery finds the key to Lady Savanah
She did it well and she's maybe a bit better fresh. I wasn't sure whether she'd handle that ground as it was fairly soft at the Curragh (when she was second). Her dam won three around here so obviously the track suits her too. We'll keep her fresh now and look for something similar. I'd say she goes on anything bar the all-weather, she definitely doesn't handle that. We ran her a couple of times at Dundalk and she didn't handle it.
Palabres brings her homework to the track
She works very well at home,. She started favourite on her first two starts for Ger (Lyons). Eamon Leigh picked her up from Patrick Cooper. We thought she'd run better last year but she dropped down the ladder and got her chance with the handicapper. She won today and we'll hopefully find something similar for her. There is another day in her hopefully. It's great to get a winner early on in the season. She has loads of pace and she's a brilliant work horse at home. I was coming here today thinking if she didn't run well there was something wrong. She disappointed us loads of time on the track so it's brilliant to get a win out of her.
