After race at Tramore Sun, 21st Apr, 2024 (1st)  He has been placed so many days and he deserved that. It's his second win and he has been pretty consistent, he is a great little horse. He was down the bottom of the handicap and we took seven off with Conor's claim. It's great for Conor, that's his third winner and he is improving away. He probably wants another year of experience under his belt to really get going. He is definitely on the up. That's 41 winners now and it's my best season to date. It was lovely to hit the 40 winners mark the other day. I've been fifth in the trainers table nearly all year and while behind me is something like 18, I'm still miles behind the first four. For a yard of 50 odd horses at the level we are at, it's magic. I've got massive support from owners and I have wonderful staff. Long may it last. P J Rothwell

After race at Clonmel Thu, 1st Apr, 2021 (1st)  That wasn't a surprise, he is a summer horse and the trip suited. I told James I thought we had a good chance and to jump out and be plenty positive on him. We'll step him up in trip as the summer comes along and these little tracks suit him and he could end up in those conditions' chases during the summer. We have young horses now running in handicaps and they are finding a bracket now and competing. I don't have a star horse now and don't have anything to fly the flag so I need these to be winning and there is 18 months gone into these winners. We have been doing the same thing for quite a while but have got rid of a lot of horses which weren't good enough. We are starting with a fresh bunch and are working our way through it. P J Rothwell
