Little Queenie

“Little Queenie was good, although I wasn't as confident with the going change. She goes on this easier ground but it just blunts her speed a little bit. She was unlucky not to win here earlier in the year. Robert's 3lb claim and racing along the stands' side helped, as I think the ground is quicker there. There's another race here over five furlongs next week, but she could go to Dundalk as well. The lads would love to try a black-type race and, if we do, it will be a Listed at Dundalk = Paul Flynn, trainer.”

“Little Queenie could go for a Listed race at Tipperary. I think she'll get black type somewhere - Paul Flynn, trainer.”

“Little Queenie is tough and hardy. Ground probably caught us out the last day but she felt 100% today. They went along and I was happy enough to get the box seat and she picked up well - Robert Whearty, rider.”

“Little Queenie is a legend. I had her entered a good few times in the last few weeks but pulled her out because of the ground. We said one way or the other she was going home after this. She'll keep going next year and if we got a bit of black type the owner would be delighted - Paul Flynn, trainer.”

“I think Little Queenie is just getting stronger now and quicker. A good stiff five is probably ideal with a little bit of juice, as she doesn't like it too quick. We had a few different options and went for the slightly better race. It was great to see her winning it - Paul Flynn, trainer.”

“He gave Little Queenie a lovely ride and there was no one to take her on today. The handicapper has given her a chance as well - Paul Flynn, trainer.”
