After race at Leopardstown Sat, 26th Jan, 2013 (1st)

I'm very pleased. It looked a fast race and there was no let up in the pace. He jumped fantastic and I couldn't ask for any better. He'll probably go for the Fred Winter and we'll see what sort of mark he gets. He'll get an entry in the Triumph, the Fred Winter and maybe the Supreme Novice as well.
