The Clonmel Oil Slan Abhaile INH Flat Race saw Willie Mullins complete a 15 to 1 plus four-timer at Powerstown Park as Tactical Move rounded off an excellent session for the Closutton team. Thu 14th Nov
We were going to run him in Wexford last week, but the ground was very heavy and he definitely likes a little bit better ground. He was going to be a nice horse last year but had a setback and was out for the season. He was working well and was ready for a run. He’s in the Paddy Power at Christmas so we’ll have to see after that. Sam has a great pair of hands and is a very talented young lad. He might be light but he’s very strong.

He got a great tune out of him because he wasn’t going early but he got him going and got him jumping. Going around the outside probably helped him to do that and the fact they went very quick he stayed on well. You would have to admire the jockey, a 5lb claimer, the ride he gave him. That’s the first time he’s rode for me and he was exceptional on him as he wasn’t simple. He had a hard job getting him stoked up. He is a very good horse but is not the simplest horse to keep right and has had a lot of issues over the years. I think he’s had more broken bones than Paul Carberry!. Sam (Ewing) was on him at Punchestown and thought he might have won and he didn’t pick up at the fourth-last. He then went to Ballinrobe and he didn’t want to know at all about jumping. The run at Listowel the last day helped to sweeten him up a bit. If he’s sound and all goes well then he’ll go for the (Galway) Plate.

it was a nice starting point, he schooled very well at home and was very good the other morning so we were confident. I didn't want to give Darragh (O'Keeffe, on Caesar Rock) too much of a lead because he has summer form and it was a tough one to gauge but he did what we expected. We always knew when he gets a fence he would be much better and can go up in trip as well. There are plenty options, he is going the right direction and I'd say he'll be higher rated over fences than hurdles — whatever route that takes him. He doesn't want it too testing. I'm very busy at present, am getting plenty opportunities from Noel (Meade), Matthew Smith and I'm picking up plenty spares for Willie Mullins. I'm busy and enjoying it.
