After race at Laytown Tue, 13th Sep, 2016 (1st)

I'm delighted for the owner who has pubs in Dublin and Bray. He's always had ability and I think he just came alive here, it suited him well. We just wanted to jump and rock and roll with him today. A couple of runs he has been disappointing on varying ground. He won a Dundalk maiden as a two-year-old first time out so obviously likes that surface.
