After race at Punchestown Sun, 3rd Feb, 2013 (1st)

I wouldn't say he was mad about the ground but he jumps and stays. If he is going to run at Liverpool we'll have to keep him ticking over and today served its purpose. We'll be looking at races like the Bobbyjo Chase, the Racing Plus Chase and the Red Mills Chase for him next but his only minus is his inexperience and he's only had five runs over fences. I'd say a horse has never won the National with only five runs over fences.

After race at Leopardstown Thu, 27th Dec, 2012 (1st)

I thought he had an each-way chance but no more than that and I was surprised by how well he travelled through the race. They went a fierce pace. He is lightly raced and that was only his fifth run over fences. Like a lot of the others we had this race in mind for a while. I was a bit disappointed with him in Navan but the horse that beat him (Roi Du Mee) was so well in. He might be an English National horse in time.

T M Walsh

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 24th Jan, 2010 (1st)

That was nice and he's obviously improved from his run the last day - hopefully he might improve again,. AP says he'll jump a fence in time and he might win another one somewhere. He jumped well all the way and done it well.

T M Walsh

After race at Punchestown Sun, 6th Dec, 2009 (1st)

That was not a very competitive handicap and we'll take it as it comes. It's not very often you get an easy handicap on a Sunday at Punchestown and I'm delighted he won.
