Duc does the business 12 months on

After race at Galway Mon, 25th Jul, 2011 (1st)

I was very disappointed with his last couple of runs on the Flat but maybe its the hurdles that make a difference to him. He jumps so well. He's got a couple of entries here later in the week, on the Flat and also the 2m5f handicap hurdle on Saturday. We'll see how he comes out of this.
