After race at Dundalk Wed, 21st Dec, 2022 (1st)

He's kind of a deceptively progressive horse. I've always thought he was maybe stakes class. He has just taken a lot of time and he is a half brother to I Am Superman who is six now and was second in a Group 1 on his last start in Australia. This family just get better and better with age. He is quite versatile trip-wise but i actually think he will appreciate a step up in trip - I think he might stretch out to a mile and a quarter. A third of the race I thought they were going a little steady and it might turn into a bit of a sprint. He stays at it well and finishes out his races well. Tonight was just a prep run for Dubai, he is flying out to Dubai on 28th or 29th of this month. He went home after his last run to his woner/breeder Michael Smith's farm to freshen him up with the intention of getting him back in and going to Dubai with I Am Superman as well. They worked here two weeks ago and this race just appeared on the calendar and we ran him for a bit of prize money instead of working him. This horse appreciates nice ground and a decent surface, he doesn't want soft ground so that will suit him. We are looking forward to bringing him and his half brother I Am Superman who we brought home from Australia. We still owned him when we sent him out there and he won six or seven hundred thousand dollars when he was out there. I am going to go over and back (to Dubai) a few times. I would hope by the time he comes back from Dubai he might be out of handicaps.

After race at Curragh Sat, 25th Jun, 2022 (1st)

I’m delighted for Michael (Smith, owner) who also bred him and he bred I Am Superman who also did well for us. This horse ran very well in Royal Ascot last week (10th in the Buckingham Palace Stakes)and, to be fair to Michael, he said go on and take your chance in the Curragh. He’s been knocking on the door to win one of these big handicaps and he’s gone and won well today. There was a good strong gallop and that’s what suits him. He might win another one if the handicapper is not too hard on him.
