Sligo Tue, 22nd Aug, 2017 (1st) 
When we came up the road we were actually going to pull him out as we saw so much rain coming. He had lost his way there for a while; it’s a few years since he has won. He is a bit older now so he has got cuter. I think the small field kind of helped him. I was glad to see a few horses came out so we ran him. We were worried about the ground, we would have liked yielding to soft but obviously he has handled it. We are happy. He was a good horse in his day so we are glad for the horse and glad for ourselves.

We always knew he had a big pot like this in him. Johnny said he could be a Yorkshire Cup horse. I might run him over hurdles now, and then give him a break.

After race at
Down Royal Fri, 31st Aug, 2012 (1st)
He was a little bit unlucky that he didn't draw on his last two hurdle outings. The application of blinkers helped him (wore them for the first time at Leopardstown on his last start). He'll run on the flat next. He is a big galloping horse and finished second at Longchamp to a horse that is now rated 116. He wouldn't want it any softer. I thought he had loads in the tank. He was very disappointing at first and a bit tricky after coming from France but he is coming on in small steps.

After race at
Leopardstown Thu, 9th Aug, 2012 (1st)
We will have to wait and see how good of a race that was. Some of his form in France gave him a chance. The winning syndicate (the Dorightlys Syndicate) are from Armagh and there is six or seven of them.
