After race at Cork Fri, 5th May, 2017 (1st)

the ground was over-watered for him so she (Blackmore) kept him out wide - that as the plan from the get-go. She gave him a super ride, he might have missed one or two and we’ve no plan from here but he might go back to the flat, that’s an option. The horses and Rachael are on fire at the moment!

Miss Ellmarie Holden

After race at Cork Sun, 16th Apr, 2017 (1st)

That was very impressive and Rachael gave him a super ride. Going on his last run, he wouldn’t have been too far (away) today and everything is flying at the moment. We’ll keep going for the summer but have nothing lined up next.
