I'm pleased to say that I did.![]()
At Fairyhouse it was no surprise that Nina Carberry should win a race called the Nina Carberry Flat Race and ALLY CASCADE won with plenty in hand.
Not only that, Colin, she used to own the horse before selling it to Jiggytown after its previous run for about five times the €18k she had bought it for. He's another horse to keep an eye on.
Regarding the Hexham race, I think Peter Carberry on the winner deserves praise for kicking on when he did. His pursuers in second and third were hesitant about subjecting their horses to too hard a race, I felt, and didn't start trying to pull back the deficit until too late.
It will be interesting to see how Bridgequarter Girl gets on in the mares winners bumper at Punchestown. She is related to Roddy's Ballyvesey and his ill-fated Royal Scoundrel, both of them bumper winners, and apparently took the eye in her debut at Cork, which was over hurdles. Today's rider, Derek O'Connor, merits the highest respect in races such as these.
EMPIRACLE very impressive when winning at Huntingdon on Tuesday. Looked a nice big gelding on the television pictures, cantering as he approached the final furlong won with a lot in hand. Looks to have a future.
Puffin Billy could be the best we've seen so far Colin - never came off the bridle in winning impressively.
