    Thanks, that was very pleasing. And possibly her best run so far, even if her main rival underperformed.

    Following her Punchestown win, Getaway Gorgeous is in tomorrow's highly competitive feature race at Listowel. It's her first run out of maiden and novice company, and it feels great for her to be involved in such a race. She has a handy weight (even with Paul Townend's likely 2lbs over) in what are expected to be testing conditions. She probably won't relish the ground, but neither might most of her opponents. There are plenty other unknowns, but we're hoping she can overcome her inexperience and run her race.

    Very unlucky. Fantastic effort from such a brave girl. Hope she gets her just rewards before too long!

    Thanks, GG did us proud today. Her jumping was very good, left most of the field well behind, fought hard and nearly got back up when headed. Plenty to look forward to with her.

    A fine run and very similar to Shanning in the same race a couple of years ago. Surely more fun to be had with her.

    Delighted to have had my first graded winner over the weekend with the very promising Shewearsitwell who took the Grade 3 Joe Mac Hurdle in some style at Tipperary.

    I’m a full year into membership with the Closutton Racing Club now and after the **** show that was Supreme Racing I must say it’s been a breath of fresh air.

    5 winners from 7 runners with Shewearsitwell & Robinnia who also looks like a black type mare.

    Exciting times ahead.

    Not seen Roddy on here for two years now but I notice Paul Fullagar who co-owned horses with Roddy now listed as the late Paul Fullagar. Roddy now sole owner since October 12th so presumably Beggar's Wishes 4.31 Market Rasen tomorrow is the first runner as sole owner.

    Robinnia lines up against the boys tomorrow in the 2nd @ Tipperary. A lovely mare who has improved from her bumper win in August.

    This is a deep little race and dropping her back to 2m is risky given her pedigree but I hope she’ll be bang there turning in.
