After race at Roscommon Mon, 30th Sep, 2019 (1st)

He's the first proper winter horse we've ran. We've winter ground now and finished one-two so happy days,. I'd say he could go up in trip and he'll win plenty of races. It's good for Jack (Kennedy), he's only back from an injury so it's nice for him to get a winner.
