Best things come to those who wait     It takes some winning and a lot of luck. I've always found older horses much better at the GN trip than younger horses.  8,9,10,11yo have a much better chance than anything younger.  Not sure why this is, but having done loads of experimenting and trails with Hooley in the past. Also game breeds seem to have a great record in the race over the season, i know my winner was a GB. Cheers Craig  nice to see you back on here again yes 9 or 10yo is best at 4m+ be nice to see you come back in the league Mr Hemz You know my thoughts on the game front del. Specially the League aspects of it ha.

						Parsons Fancy (5th) - Best run of the season One World (8th) - Couldn't get close to repeating last weeks Cheltenham win Call The Police (7th) - Only beat 1 home Makng Champs (8th) - Poor run but was probably on the short side Champion Snake (UR) - Unseated halfway round Flyers Wing (2nd) - Excellent run, another furlong and he would have won it Jet Lag (UR) - Unseated De Soto (7th) - Ran on at the end but was too late. Close 7th Galaxy Role (3rd) - Outpaced and then ran on, good run Macho Man (4th) - Unlikely to win this season
  4 made the money today so another good day
  Well done all winners and placers

						Zod Meister (9th) - Second last which was to be expected Zod Sterling (10th) - Disappointing handicap debut Call The Police (11th) - Agitated in the paddock and finished a detached last Estoril (1st) - Grade 1 Baby                  Three in a row for the AWESOME Estoril. What a front running gem. He was awful at the start of the season but now wins a first graded race for me. ABSOLUTELY DELIGHTED Chocolate Lover (5th) - Another good run. Musanid (13th) - A poor showing Ghostkonski (7th) - Was expected to finish last so 7th is a good performance Bang Bang Bang (1st) - WOW! What a great finish came from miles behind at the last to head Wannabe's runner (unluckly mate). 2 out of 2 for Bang Bang Bang. Another brilliant day for me with 2 winners and a first graded jumps win (G1 as well). The second half of the season has been fantastic for me. Well done to all winners and placers

						Very Great day for me with 1 Winner 1 3rd 2 4ths S Alci Jck won Punchestown Gold Cup 3m1 Chase Grade 1 was so very excited for him to win that race was really a close battle with Kevcon's horse congrats to you Kevcon your horse had me sweating badly.. Not bad for a horse with the odds of 66/1 before the off. lol Grade 1 yes100x ( jumps in the air) amazing feeling   .. I guess that my 3m chasers did a good job for me this season with both of them winning 1 Grade 1 each May Mist Tear is the better with better form.. Congrats to all winners and placers

						A good day, but nearly a great day.
  4 x 2nds
  3 of them were leading by a couple of lengths with a furlong to go, but just piped on the line.

						R3 Lost Patrol (10th) - one of my most consistent performers, never went a yard and was all but tailed off. R4 Show Boat (9th) - very ordinary handicapper out of his depth in a G1. R5 Inconsequential (5th) - was hoping to finish in the places but was well beaten. R7 Northern Soul (2nd) - great run over a trip short of her best. I was very surprised that no stewards enquiry was called as I felt Keenan's horse S Alci Jck impeded mine before the last and again on the run in. Then to make my stable's day...        R8 Tunes (1st DQed) - disqualified for causing less interference than S Alci Jck did in race 7.  absolutely gutted to lose a race like that.  R10 Tuneless Wonder (10th) - ran well for a long way but his big weight was too much in the end and he faded from 2 out. congrats to all winners and placers.
