That's his seventh win but it's his first one on grass. It's the first time we have had all the conditions suiting him.

He and Carried are just amazing horses and love this place. That’s his sixth win here, and he’s ultra-consistent and always tries his best. He got a wonderful ride from Shane today. He’s actually 7lb’s higher than when he won the last time, and we’ll have to keep coming back here.

Mrs Prunella Dobbs

After race at Dundalk Fri, 10th Feb, 2017 (1st)

That's his fourth win here and he's so consistent. The seven furlongs is his optimum trip, and he just struggles a bit to get a mile. He'll come back for another one and then have a break. We'll run him on the grass over the summer.

Mrs Prunella Dobbs

After race at Dundalk Fri, 13th Jan, 2017 (1st)

with both him and Carried, my other Dundalk horse, the wonderful thing is that they usually bring prize-money home. It’s nice to win one again with him, it’s his third win here - when they like it here it’s a huge bonus. These races are all about their marks - you’re competitive one day and then you win, and go up and aren’t competitive. We’ll give him a fair break between races and I take great pride when they are consistent.

Mrs Prunella Dobbs

After race at Dundalk Fri, 23rd Sep, 2016 (1st)

We seem to have another Dundalk specialist. That's his second win here. Carried was carrying the colours before now,. Obviously he likes the surface. He was consistent on the grass during the summer but obviously prefers it here. We'll keep him for it now, and he should have a nice campaign over the winter. . We'll keep him between seven furlongs and a mile. Seven is probably his optimum trip. Billy got his timing to perfection.
