After race at Wexford Sun, 17th Mar, 2013 (1st)

He deserved that as he was unlucky to come up against a horse who was well in the last day (Lookoutnow at Gowran). He lost his way over fences but hopefully that will have given him a bit of confidence. Bryan is riding out of his skin at the moment and he is a nice man to have on your side. We will see what the owners want to do now and he may have another run over hurdles.

After race at Naas Sat, 11th Feb, 2012 (1st)

we'll see where we go with him now but he has plenty of options - he has been disappointing until now. Davy gave him a super ride and he seems to have his confidence back. We could find a little novice for Gates Of Rome now or there's also a few handicaps we could look at and we'll see what the handicapper does. He jumps fantastic but had a horrible fall at Gowran and it has taken until now to get his confidence back. I'm delighted with him and on his day, he isn't a bad horse.

C A Murphy

After race at Gowran Park Sat, 20th Mar, 2010 (1st)

He'll probably go for a winners of two next and he'd probably prefer nicer ground. I'm delighted with him and I'll have a word with the owners to see where we'll go next.

C A Murphy

After race at Clonmel Thu, 18th Feb, 2010 (1st)

He'll either go for a winners of one now or we'll see what handicap mark he gets. I won't aim too high with him.
