I really like this horse. I brought him to Ballinrobe first time out and he was as green as grass. I didn't think it would be possible for him to win but he did. Philip wasn't over hard on him the last day behind Barry Connell's horse but the next time he meets him it'll be a different ball game. This trip is totally too short for him. He is a two-and-a-half to two-mile-six horse. His work at home is real classy. The dam is a half-sister to a good horse Paul Nicholls had (El Bandit).

After race at Ballinrobe Tue, 4th May, 2021 (1st)
That’s a very good horse — he hadn’t even been away for a school or anything — and he’ll improve a ton,. He’s a brother to Bonarc and Presenting Bonnie and in normal times he’d probably have went for a four-year-old point-to-point. He always showed loads and it’s brilliant for me to have my daughter Gillian as my assistant trainer. Father Shay Casey is into this fella with us as well so I’m delighted for everyone.
