After race at Leopardstown Sun, 7th May, 2017 (1st)

He likes it around here. He won the Boomerang a couple of years ago and was second in it last year. Ideally he wants a little more juice in the ground but he's an older horse and he's very sound.

David O'Meara

After race at Curragh Sun, 7th Apr, 2013 (1st)

I said coming here that it was a fact-finding mission so that tells us where we are at. We were delighted with his comeback run and not too worried by his run the last day. He showed in his work he could be competitive at this level and it's great he got the job done. It's great to have this type of horse for a small yard. We need a horse like him. There's a lovely programme for this type of horse. He had to make the step up today and thank God he did. He's never let us down. He didn't mind that ground today. It's onwards and upwards. He's in a Listed race [at Leopardstown] next week. We'll have to sit down and look at it. Ronan knows him well and won on him over course and distance. He kept at it and he's tough.

George J Kent

After race at Curragh Sat, 21st Jul, 2012 (1st)

he keeps improving and he had to punch above his weight today and he did it again. He is thriving with every run and he'll go to Galway next. He'll get an entry for the big mile handicap and the seven furlongs race on the Saturday. We'll also keep an eye out for a Listed race and he's a horse who could travel across the pond. I have to mention the staff . without them he wouldn't be here and it's a family team effort also.

George J Kent

After race at Naas Wed, 11th Jul, 2012 (1st)

I was worried about today as Naas is different to Cork and Down Royal. He's thriving in his racing and I wish I had a few more like him. I bought him as a lead horse!. I suppose we'll look at Galway. There's a heap of options there for him. He's in at Tipperary at the weekend as well.

George J Kent

After race at Down Royal Sat, 23rd Jun, 2012 (1st)

He's a tough little horse. He's in at the sales but he could also go to Galway.

George J Kent

After race at Cork Sun, 17th Jun, 2012 (1st)

He's a proper little horse. He was bought as a lead horse but he's doing that and a bit more,. We've just a small yard and I want to pay tribute to my staff who put in great work and to Danny Grant who is a great help.
