After race at Galway Sat, 31st Jul, 2021 (1st)
That was great. It was very difficult from that draw and in fairness he got out well and went forward. It worked out great,. Robert is a good young lad and his 10lb is valuable in these types of handicaps. I'm delighted for his owner Darren Cahill, he'd love having a winner here.
