After race at Curragh Sat, 26th Jun, 2021 (1st)

He’s a great old servant and he likes it here.

After race at Curragh Sun, 26th May, 2019 (1st)
I told Andrew to wait all day on him. He did his homework on the last two years of the horses form and had seen that Pat (Smullen) got up late on him at Killarney,. For a guy of his age to have done so much research was great, and he was thrilled when I said to try and do the same as Pat did.
D K Weld


After race at Navan Sat, 27th Aug, 2016 (1st)
He'd a good run in Galway but was no match for the handicap certainty. He's tough and genuine and we'll find another handicap for him,.
