After race at Dundalk Fri, 4th Jan, 2019 (1st)

I honestly couldn't believe it, he just kept picking up down the straight. I was barely touching him. I knew him from his good days when he won three around here and he loves to come wide. Not a bother on him, he tried to run away on me coming back!. I should know him a lot better but he is dad's pet, he rides him out every single day. I know him well enough at this stage.

After race at Dundalk Wed, 25th Nov, 2015 (1st)

that's his (Northern Surprise) first run here but I just got a feeling he'd handle it as it's been riding a bit easier this year. He'll go for something similar in a few weeks time if all is well. The only time I can remember Pat riding for me before was on a horse called Destiny's Child, and she won here as well.

After race at Bellewstown Wed, 26th Aug, 2015 (1st)

It's great the rain came last night and luck was on our side to get in as a reserve,.

Timothy Doyle

After race at Tipperary Sat, 11th Jul, 2015 (1st)

He goes like a nice horse at home but was disappointing in the spring and had a wind operation since his last run. The ground is as quick as he'd like it and he'll go to Galway for something next.

Timothy Doyle

After race at Sligo Sun, 4th May, 2014 (1st)

my lad doesn't do a lot when he hits the front and he was the same at Gowran the last day. He kept at it well enough and is a nice horse who keeps improving.
