After race at Limerick Wed, 28th Jan, 2009 (1st)

He was entitled to that. I said to Andrew if they didn't go a good enough gallop that we'd make the running. I didn't want to be pulling and dragging him. Andrew felt he'd be better getting a lead. We'll enter him for some of the better class hurdles. (EM)
