After race at Sligo Wed, 6th Aug, 2014 (1st)

Ronan (Whelan, winning jockey) has been knocking on the door for us for a couple of years and that's his first winner for us. He (Back Off Mate) was second in the race last year and was entitled to go close. The ground was too fast for him at the Curragh the last day and doesn't let himself down then. He'll mix it and go for a hurdle or chase at Tramore in a couple of weeks and will then come back to the Curragh in September for an amateur race in which he was second last year. He pays his way, is very genuine and has now won on the flat, over hurdles and over fences.

After race at Downpatrick Sun, 23rd Mar, 2014 (1st)

Thank God for that. Gareth gave him a good ride. He's great value for his 7lb claim. I'd like to give him more opportunities. He said he had plenty of horse coming to the last but he just idled a bit in front. He'll be better on better ground. He'll mix it over three codes during the summer and we'll have a bit of fun with him. He's a summer horse and we might look at an opportunity hurdle over two and a half in Punchestown.

A L T Moore

After race at Wexford Sat, 26th Oct, 2013 (1st)

He was due a win and he'll mix it now between the flat, hurdles and fences as he's very adaptable.
