he’s a good horse on the flat but started acting the monkey at stalls. We were going to step him up in trip at that stage and then schooled him over hurdles and he jumps well. He was a bit novicey at the first few and Sam gave him a super ride. We thought if we could get to the last and then go forward as he wouldn’t do any more than he has to in front. He’s had a couple of schooling days and hopefully there is plenty of improvement. There is a race at Fairyhouse in a couple of weeks but it might come a bit soon and Christmas might be the next stepping stone. He’s very clean winded and settles well. It’s good to see Sam back (from injury) and he’s a great young lad. I have full confidence in him. A Oliver, trainer
