After race at Punchestown Tue, 29th Apr, 2014 (1st)

It was a good performance from a five-year-old. He loved that ground and he bounced off it. It was his first run over banks and he took to them well. He got a great ride from Nina. We're so fortunate to have her. We miss J T (McNamara) terrible and she learned so much from him.
