💫🏆Winner 🏆 💫

Ballycurragh Graduate and son of Snow Sky -
💛❤️ Barton Snow❤️💛 added a third success in the Uk and is giving his new syndicate an exciting time. We wish them continuing success!

Three runners headed to Bellharbour, Co. Clare on Sunday

🥈⚪️🔵Revolut Ned🔵⚪️ stepped up into winners company after his maiden win in Turtulla. He ran a cracker in a very competitive winners powering down the home straight to finish second. A great crew of support headed down again to shout him on and they are sure to have plenty more fun with him.

💛🖤Leading Rose🖤💛 had her second run of the season and everything is starting to come together for her now. She was a lot more professional and jumped well throughout, finishing a nice fourth. More improvement is sure to come from the run.

Boley Bob and Fairly River both had their debut runs in maiden company. Both will learn a lot from their runs. Fairly river was running a cracker under Patrick Gleeson on his debut and was fighting out a finish when falling at the last in Ballinaboola. Although a late newcomer he is exciting for the rest of the season and we are looking forward to seeing him out again soon. Boley Bob was running a really eye catching race under Pa king, but some exuberant jumping efforts made for a tired finish and he should improve from the experience.

🥉The Last Minute 🥉

We just had one runner this weekend and headed to Cragmore in Limerick for The Last Minute to run in the Winners contest. A stylish winner of his maiden earlier this season in Knockmullen and some great placed runs, he stepped into a very competitive winners and finished a nice third. He should be well capable to take a similar contest in the near future.

🏆 🥇Revolut Ned🥇🏆

🥈Barton Sky
🥉Grattan Street

💫Revolut Ned 💫 got his head in front in style under Pa King at Turtulla. Sitting in mid division all the way he made his move around the home bend and with the last omitted there was a long run in and a good battle from the last. Well done to all involved.

Grattan Street was having his first run in the same race and ran a nice race finishing third. He will come on from the run and will be out again in the next few weeks.

❤️💛Barton Sky ❤️💛 ran a cracker in second, just denied on the line. He will be freshened up and take his chance again soon.

Weekend Results

🏇BORRIS 1.12.24🏇

D Journey Man and Revolut Ned headed to Borris for the five year old maiden. D Journey Man made the running under Luke Carberry and was in contention until the second last where he blundered badly putting an end to his chances.

🥉Revolut Ned 🥉ran a great race again today under Pa King. Making a mistake at the fourth last he had some ground to make up but duly finished strongly up the home straight to finish a close third. He has had a very busy November running three times in the last month with his form reading 2-2-3 and he’ll have an easy week or two before going to battle once more. He has been running consistently in very competitive races in all different grounds and tracks. Lady Luck is surely close!!!🍀

Elusive Mae headed to BALLINDENISK in Cork for a Mares winners race. She possibly just wasn’t herself today and was pulled up at the second last under Patrick Gleeson. Well done to Patrick riding another winner in the Open Lightweight.

TINAHELY 17.11.24

🥈REVOLUT NED started off the day with another great run in the five year old geldings under Barry O Neill finishing a close second again. He was just being outbattled in the final strides and he really deserves to get his head in front soon. 🥉GRAGEEN returned to action in the Open contest and had a fine run under Luke Carberry to finish third.

Elusive Mae finished a creditable race at her favourite track that has seen her take her maiden and her winners last season finishing 5th with Barry O Neill on board.
Pa king rode D Journey Man in Turtulla finishing 4th in the five year old geldings maiden. He has been consistent so far and hopefully he’ll get his head in front soon.

🔥🔥🔥WINNER🔥🔥🔥

🥇THE LAST MINUTE 🥇
Beaten just a short head at Rathcannon last weekend under Pa King, The Last Minute made quick amends with an outstanding easy 20 length victory in the Novice Riders division under Patrick Gleeson. He is proving to love his racing and was fresh and well all week. A great start with Patrick having his first ride for us. Well done to all his connections 🔥

🥉BARTON SKY 🥉 had his first run of the season and finished a near third in a very competitive winners contest. He is sure to come on plenty for his run and pick up his winners very soon. His owner and breeder Toss Hutton made the trip to see him run and is sure to have another winning photo for the wall, all going well!

Dromahane - The Journey man finished a creditable 5th in his maiden under Luke Carberry. It’s still early days and he has put two nice performances together now, finishing second at tattersalls two weeks ago.

Elusive Toss made his debut in the five year old contest and pulled up three out. We think there’s a lot to come from this horse, and he is sure to have learned plenty from his day.

🥈REVOLUT NED
🥈THE LAST MINUTE
🥈GRAGEEN

Three runners headed down to Limerick yesterday and it turned out an exciting day with all three involved in their respective finishes.

🥈Revolut Ned showed no signs of his unfortunate fall last weekend and ran a sweet race just coming up short against a smart track performer. He should get his head in front in the near future.

🥈The closest and most exciting finish of the day involved The last Minute having his first run of the season and after a long wait for the result of a photo finish, he was just denied in the stewards room. He is a lovely big straightforward type and hopefully lots of fun to come with him this season.

🥈Grageen was the last chance of the day which was starting to feel a little frustrating and finishing second meant he didn’t outshine his lorry buddies! He ran a very nice first race of his season which should have him sharp for his next run. Finishing second on his Hunter Chase debut, a return to the track is possibly on the cards.

Elusive Mae started out her season in a very competitive winners contest in Damma House. She finished a fine 5th and should come on
well from her run. A mares winners contest in the coming weeks in her plan.

Lots of help over the weekend makes for a great team effort and the winners will surely come again soon with the horses all showing solid form. 🔥Team Ballycurragh 🔥

A week of 🐎schooling🐎 and 💈clipping 💈ahead! Only six days to wait for racing again!!!

Tattersalls 27.10.24

We sent out our first runners of the season today. We headed to Tattersalls with three runners.

🥈D Journey Man 🥈 had his first start with us and he ran a cracker under Luke Carberry to finish an unlucky second. Revolut Ned was very unlucky to fall at the fourth last when travelling well but he is home safe and well and will take his chance again soon.

🥇⭐️Elsa Bay⭐️🥇 stepped up to the star of the day winning her maiden with ease under Pa King and she will progress into winners company next time. Watching how the horses performed today we are all very excited for the season ahead.

🎃 Happy Halloween Everyone 🎃
