After race at Leopardstown Sun, 26th Jan, 2014 (1st)

I knew he (Trifolium) was in the form of his life but while I wasn't expecting him to win, I thought he'd be there or thereabouts. We had cheek-pieces on him the last day and he was a bit free so we decided to leave them off today and it probably helped settle him a bit. He has jumped beautifully from his first day chasing at Thurles but being able to settle him in behind Defy Logic today which was the secret. I felt he was coming to the form he was in going to Cheltenham two years ago but we'd a terrible year with him last year when we couldn't get anything to go right; he seems to be back now and it looks like I'll have an excuse to go to Cheltenham now after all!

After race at Thurles Thu, 21st Nov, 2013 (1st)

From the first day we schooled him he jumped fantastic but he's had so many problems. He's been done for his wind and he's had one or two more problems as well. Heavy ground seems to be the killer for his wind. We'll tip away from here and he'll be entered in whatever two mile races there are for him. It suits him to be out in front and he's able to keep filling up. He won a good few races last year from the front. He should be easy to train after today,.

After race at Punchestown Sun, 5th Feb, 2012 (1st)

I'm very happy with that. He's prefer better ground, like most horses.

C Byrnes

After race at Cork Sun, 11th Dec, 2011 (1st)

It wasn't a great race and he was entitled to win it. He will appreciate better ground. He jumped better today than the last day, his jumping cost him last time out.
