After race at Ballinrobe Tue, 25th Jul, 2017 (1st)

He's ran well around here, you'd nearly think that he doesn't handle the track but he always seems to run well here,.

Karl Thornton

After race at Clonmel Thu, 29th Oct, 2015 (1st)

I had him in pre-training a few years ago before he went off to bigger yards, and when he came up for sale six weeks ago I was always going to buy him. We took a chance by coming wide and he jumped super. He is owned by David O'Rourke, a neighbour of mine, and he agreed that he was a smashing horse and it's my first winner for him. I've 12 horses in total, six of which are point-to-pointers and the rest are all running this week!
