He had to come here to win his maiden but he's a horse with plenty of ability,. Colin is a very strong jockey but equally he's a very brainy jockey. He said going out 'if I hit this horse once he'll curl up'. He had the confidence to ride hands and heels and that was the winning of the race. He's the kind of horse that if you hit him once he would be beaten a short-head rather than win a short-head. We have a good record around Laytown, love it, and for horses like this it revitalises them. It's great for the syndicate. If that lad put it in like he does at home he'd have a few more under the belt. Hopefully this gives him confidence and he can move on from there. On a slow five on the Curragh he ran a cracker and that's seven on quick. He has plenty of speed and we should have a bit of fun with him. Shane Lyons, representing G M Lyons, trainer
