After race at Kilbeggan Fri, 2nd Sep, 2022 (1st)

I expected that today. He worked with a couple of nice Flat horses six days ago and I was very impressed with him,. It's great and he's improving away. It's nice for the Griffins, who are fantastic owners and such easy people to train for, and everyone in the yard, who work so hard. He loves it here, it keeps him interested going up and down and around. We'll have a look now but as soon as the ground is gone we'll give him a little bit of a break and aim for the spring.
