After race at Thurles Thu, 22nd Oct, 2015 (1st)

I freshened him up after his run the last day and Frank (Berry, J.P. McManus' racing manager) said this was a good chance for him. The track and coming up and down hills suited and he loves that ground. Mark gave him a great ride and jumped the last three well. He's not a horse for winter ground and it's great to get this as he's finished second eight times and had only won once before today.
