After race at Roscommon Mon, 25th Sep, 2017 (1st)  I picked out this race a while ago and thought it might be a bit easier than that but when we turned up on the day there were three nice horses in it. The trip was a small question mark but Denis (Lenihan) said he got it well and he relaxed well today. This is what he probably is and what he did earlier in the year was a bonus. We'll have a look at the Birdcatcher over six at Naas now; he's been there before, likes the track and that would probably be it for the season then. the lads bred him themselves so they are absolutely delighted; they’re all Dubs fans and they said it was nearly better than when Dublin won the All-Ireland!

After race at Navan Sat, 20th May, 2017 (1st)  It was a good performance. I was a bit worried the ground might have gone a bit quick but the showers definitely helped. Pat said he's not a five furlong horse and probably just got away with it today. He's a horse we'll see getting six furlongs and he said he might even get seven furlongs in the end. He's surprised me how quick he's come to hand early in the year. He doesn't look like a two-year-old but he's got a little bit of ability and hopefully he'll go on and do something good for us in the middle and towards the end of the season. The owners aren't keen on Royal Ascot. I think he's done a lot quickly, a lot more than we thought he would at this stage of his career. He won't be an Ascot horse but will be one to look forward to towards the end of the year. J P Murtagh
