After race at Naas Sat, 15th Jan, 2011 (1st)

He is a good horse on heavy ground. We said before today that if he won we'd give him an entry in the Coral Cup and the Martin Pipe conditional riders handicap hurdle at Cheltenham. After that now he should get into one of those.

After race at Fairyhouse Wed, 7th Apr, 2010 (1st)

He's a fair on soft ground, the softer the better for him. He'll go for the winners of one race on the Wednesday of the Punchestown Festival and that'll be it for him. We'll probably go chasing with him next year. He's related to a few good horses over fences.

After race at Navan Sat, 5th Dec, 2009 (1st)

I thought I'd win the maiden hurdle but I didn't!,. I could do with a change of luck. My horses are going well. He might go for a winners bumper at Leopardstown over Christmas.
