After race at Galway Mon, 16th Sep, 2019 (1st)

You'd have to be happy with that. I just didn't know ground-wise with him as he has never run for me on that ground. I felt he wanted easier ground but that's proper national hunt ground. A horse fell in front of him on his first start over hurdles and he could never get back into it again but he has never galloped for me on that type of ground so it was an unknown. He looks to have taken to hurdles well and I left a bit for improvement too. I'm based in north county Dublin not far from Croke Park, I could hear the shouting (for the All-Ireland on Saturday).

it's great for Mr Gallagher, he's a great patron of mine and he keeps a lot of horses with me and it's great for him to have another winner here. He was struggling to win handicaps and this is why we've gone to this type of company. He seems to like it and he did that easier tonight — he made hard work of it last time. That's the type of horse he is though - he can run in two different ways but hopefully I can keep him because he'll hold his own in those type of races.

He's a bit of a monkey and Shane (Foley) said he didn't really want to win. He's very hard to win with though he's been consistent. I don't know where we'll go if he's not claimed and it's just nice to get a winner for Mr Gallagher who is a very good patron of mine.
