Trainer Quotes

Mar 2026

"He won the Madrid Handicap on his return at Naas this month. He was tough and learned a lot from that. He took a run to find his form last year as he was a little bit lazy. I think he'll be very comfortable going a mile and could get further. He can go into a winners' race now and we'll go gentle with him and let him mature. 31-03-26"

Trainer Quotes

Mar 2026

"She's a lovely, big filly and it was nice to get her started this month at Naas, where she won a mile maiden. She has an entry in the Park Express on Friday but it could come a bit soon. She's going to be an absolutely beautiful filly next year, she's big and strong, and she's a baby still. She'll work on Tuesday and that'll tell us if she could run on Friday. It's possible as she did take her race very well. 31-03-26"

"He won his only race last year in a 7f maiden at the Curragh in June. He's out of a Galileo mare and is the type for a Derby trial. 31-03-26"

Trainer Quotes

Apr 2026

"He ran a great race when second at Cork on Friday. He took a blow inside the furlong pole but rallied back. He looks a nice horse going forward. We might step him up into black-type company and a mile and a quarter looks a nice trip for him at the moment. The Leopardstown Derby Trial might come up nicely for him or we could look at Chester. 27-04-26"

How do odds work? The first number is what you win, the second is what you bet. So 5/2 means you win £5 for every £2. 4/1 means you win £4 for every £1. The bigger the first number, the less likely bookmakers think the horse will win — but the more you'd win if it does.
