After race at Ballinrobe Mon, 12th Aug, 2013 (1st)

David gave him some ride, it was unbelievable, he rode him like a man possessed . he must have lost his wallet! . He was second early and then dropped to sixth down the back and I'll have to thank David for getting him back up. He is tough, he likes to be in dogfight and he likes fast ground. We will keep him on the go now for a while. It is nice to win a pot like this and it is great for his owners (Richard McNally, Leo Walsh, L Murrin & John Collins), they also had Rajik with me.
