After race at Tipperary Sun, 5th Oct, 2014 (1st) 
Antonio, a guy from Argentina that has been with me for years, rides him out as he can be a handful. He rides a lot of horses that can be troublesome . he's a bit of a horse whisperer,. He'd been telling me that he was flying but we worked him on the round gallop at home on heavy ground and he went desperate. Paul came off him and said to me that he had to be better than that. Antonio was adamant he was still in great form.

We thought he was a nice horse at the start of the year. He won second time out at Cork but then he lost his way a little bit. He got a bit keen and maybe went over the top on us a little bit. We freshened him up and I had this race picked out for him for a while. He likes cut in the ground. He was running a bit keen over a mile and a half and maybe this distance (a mile and one) suited him as well. It was a great performance today. I haven't been here all week but he went through the ground well today and it seems to have dried out well. They've done a good job to have the track the way it is. It's hard to win wherever you go. We put a lot of work into this horse . we had good faith in him. The little break we gave him seems to have worked and it freshened him up. We might go for the Finale Stakes at the Curragh or the November Handicap at Naas. They are the two options he has.
