After race at Down Royal Wed, 11th Feb, 2015 (1st)

Davy gave him a great ride. He's a very good rider. This horse is a bit of a monkey but he got his head in front. On his hurdles form he was entitled to win. I rode a few winners for Rodney Watson so it is nice to win this race. He was a gentleman and a great point-to-point man which I was brought up in.

After race at Leopardstown Fri, 27th Dec, 2013 (1st)

Robbie gave him a great ride. He is a bit of a monkey but he has plenty of ability.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Ballinrobe Tue, 30th Apr, 2013 (1st)

That's grand . it keeps the job going. He's a bit of a monkey but he has ability and it's grand to see him winning another race. He has plenty of ability but he could get beat in a worse race the next day. He'll be left off when the ground gets faster.
