After race at Killarney Sat, 22nd Aug, 2015 (1st)

he's a nice horse to have and I was keen to get him to the front and let him look at his fences. We'll tip away with him now and while he might have an entry in the Kerry National, he'll probably aim for a novice chase, at Listowel. his jumping used to let him down but he now has his eye in over banks and that was a nice confidence booster.
