After race at Leopardstown Wed, 28th Dec, 2011 (1st)

AP was very good on him, he made his mind up for him. He had a lovely handicap mark and I didn't want to let it go. I thought this was the right race to start his season off in.

W P Mullins

After race at Limerick Sun, 24th Jan, 2010 (1st)

Quiscover Fontaine always had a great technique and hopefully can go on from that. We'll aim him at a winners' race next.

W P Mullins

Wed, 28th Jan, 2009

He is improving all the time. I'm a little surprised that he handled the ground so well and he'll be better on some good ground. He looks a nice horse for a novice handicap in the spring. David gave him a cool ride. (EM)

We'll go for a winners' bumper next with Cadspeed but ideally I'd like to go jumping sooner rather than later. He is stoutly bred and is a nice stayer in the making.
