After race at Navan Sat, 28th May, 2016 (1st)

I bought him at the horses-in-training sale and couldn't get an owner for him. I'm kind of happy I have him (runs for JP Murtagh Racing) now!. I felt he had improved from his last run and he's settled into the place now. He was working better than he had all year and he has strengthened up well. The handicapper is going to be harsh on him after winning by six lengths and he'll probably have to go for a premier handicap but hopefully he can step up. We were only learning with him and the first day in Dundalk we made the running with him but he likes to be held up and come through horses. I always thought he wanted good ground but he has handled soft as well.
