After race at Clonmel Thu, 4th Mar, 2021 (1st)

We’ve been waiting a long time for that one and he’ll get a bit further. Rachael said he wasn’t in love with the ground and on looser ground he’d gallop away through it. He’s owned and bred by Tom Egan so he’ll be happy with that. We’ll see what the ground is like before we decide what to do next. He’s just learning the job and will be a better horse next year up in trip.
