Reports in which Mental Strength (IRE) was mentioned

3 up for Gigginstown and Cooper

What we ended up with was a treble for Gigginstown House Stud and Bryan Cooper after the win of Victory Mill (13/2) in the Fairyhouse Membership 2016 Maiden Hurdle. It could have been five from five for Willie Mullins though, if Au Quart De Tour hadn't fallen at the last. Sat 19th Dec

Bannon rides 1st winner

On his fourth bumper ride Paul Bannon (22) from Skryne got off the mark when 33/1 shot Mental Strength (first start since pulling up in a point-to-point in March 2013) surprised in the Thanks To Our 10,000 Plus Followers On @fairyhouse Twitter Flat Race. Sat 10th Oct

After race at Fairyhouse Sat, 10th Oct, 2015 (1st)

Paul is with me about six months. He rides this horse out every day and knows him inside out,. He took the bull by the horns and gave him a great ride. Hopefully he'll get more opportunities now. We thought this horse would win his point-to-point but he got an injury and we gave him plenty of time. We always thought he was a good horse and he's proved it now.
