After race at Tramore Fri, 3rd Jun, 2016 (1st) 
I'm thrilled as he has been very, very consistent and I spotted this race for him a month ago. We tried to get Davy to ride him a week ago - I haven't had the best couple of months, so it's very, very important to get back on the winners board again and we have a couple of nice horses for the summer so hopefully we can get a few more and keep the thing going. I was delighted to have Davy riding him - Andrew (Ring) will be back on him in a handicap no doubt but we chose to put Davy on him today, just for his experience and to try and get a winner. John Andrew Kinsella works for me at home and his family own the horse. He does all the work with him at home, it's a credit to him really. He will probably go for a handicap next or he could go back over hurdles. We are in conditions beginners so he is probably not good enough to go the novice route.
