After race at Ballinrobe Mon, 8th Aug, 2016 (1st)

That's a relief! He has been called plenty of names but he has had plenty of problems and that's what people don't realise,. He has plenty of ability and we will school him away over fences now. Chasing will be his game.

Karl Thornton

After race at Down Royal Sat, 1st Nov, 2014 (1st)

he was always going to be a big price coming out of a small yard but we were waiting for a bit of rain and thought a few days ago if the ground was safe, he'd take all the beating. The boys backed him at 40/1 this morning and my brother had a good few quid on him!. he's a real good horse and we thought we'd make plenty of use of him as he's a tough sort who would be hard to pass.
