I thought at the start of the year the way he was handicapped that he’d win one. He ran well in a lot of them but he didn’t win any so we dropped him down to a claimer and we handicapped him ourselves. He’s been a good horse to us and has won half a dozen. If someone claims him they will get plenty of fun out of him and if they don’t we’ll run him again somewhere. It’s nice to get another win with him.

It's good to get. Punters are sharper than me as I thought he was bad value at 5/2 favourite,. He's been a bit of a bookmakers friend the last few times. I suppose he's a bookmakers friend today as he (the Powers) owns him!. Robbie gave him a very good ride. He's not simple and we took the hood off today. He's always been a highly strung individual and wore the hood for a reason. We took it off him because he was nearly doing the job too well. When you were pressing button A you were getting button B. He battled it out well today and seems to like going around a bend. He's won twice here and twice at Leopardstown. It panned out well and we'll try and find another handicap for him. He wins one or two a year. Last year he won two and they took one off me. We'll try and win two again this year. People tell me he'll get seven but I'm not so sure.

I’m not just saying it because he’s my stable apprentice but I thought he gave that horse a bloody good ride. He doesn’t do anything in front as you could see at Naas the last day, and I told Robbie to come later than late today - I’m just glad that I’m a trainer and he’s a jockey!

He deserved to win a little race,. Robbie rides him out in the morning. He's a bit of a nervy individual but Robbie gets on well with him. Every time he gives his best. Some people were questioning him the last day but he got a belt across the snout!
