After race at Roscommon Tue, 2nd Aug, 2011 (1st)

He did it well. He had been knocking on the door and he deserved that win. He loves that ground, its perfect for him. He will probably go for something similar next, maybe a three mile handicap hurdle. He needs three miles. His owner Martin Donnellan (who also bred the horse) is from Ballinasloe.
