I thought the handicapper might have got him. The rise he got after last time seemed plenty,. It just goes to show you that when they are improving you don't know where they will end up. He's won well again. I had a little doubt about the distance as he won so well over a mile-and-a-half but he travelled well and quickened up. Barry has a nice horse. It nice to see it turn out well when someone buys one. He's due off to a jumps trainer now - Dessie Hughes - and i'm ringing him in the morning. He'll head on to a new life in the next few days.

Minsk is a nice horse and I gave him a bit of time over the summer as he is a big ‘rangey' devil. We took our time and let him mature and he has been improving steadily. He stays well and should get better as he gets older. He won nicely there and while it is hard to know where to go next, I'll be surprised if he wasn't bought to go jumping.

He's a nice, big backward type and should improve as the year goes on. He stays well, handled the ground and is honest.
