After race at Gowran Park Sat, 5th Oct, 2019 (1st)

It was good to get the show back on the road after the fall last time. We’ve always had huge faith in him and we’ll kick start a novice hurdle campaign and see where we can get to. It was plenty soft enough when he won his bumper at Galway so I can’t see winter conditions being any problem for him. He was declared for the bumper at Tipperary tomorrow just in case something went awry. I haven’t really looked at where we’ll go but off the top of my head he could go for a three-mile Graded novice at Cork.

After race at Galway Sun, 4th Aug, 2019 (1st)

He’s as tough as old boots, and Ruth was brilliant on him. She used her head and picked the best of the ground.

After race at Tramore Fri, 31st May, 2019 (1st)

We were damn glad he was still in front when he came out the fog again. He is a lovely horse, he is a gent of a horse and Ruth gets on great with him. She ride him out every day at home and I’m delighted to be able to give her a winner. We’ll give him a go at a winners bumper. He is a bit of leery divil and I know we couldn’t see much today but I think there is plenty in the tank when you go for him again. He'll go for the winners bumper and we’ll see where the summer takes us after that.
