Fri 28th Sep

After race at Wexford Sat, 7th Sep, 2019 (1st)

He is a lovely horse and we always thought on the Flat his bravery wasn't the best, but we think hurdles will toughen him up. He's not finished yet on the flat but the hurdles will put a bit of bravery into him. We were hoping for the best today as he had been jumping well at home and he is a lovely big horse. It is sad his owner Bill Foley passed away earlier in the year; he was an absolute gentleman and he would have been thrilled. His niece Annette O'Connor and nephew are carrying on with the horse now so it's great.
