After race at Leopardstown Thu, 25th Jul, 2019 (1st)

You'd be delighted with him and we'll go for the Futurity with him,. He progressing lovely, he came forward lovely from his first to his second run and you'd have to be very happy with him. He looks like a horse, that as a three-year-old, a mile would be his trip. You never know, he could stay further, but he's not short of pace. At the Curragh he was very good when he got out. We're delighted with him.
