After race at Limerick Thu, 27th Jul, 2023 (1st)

He jumped great and I'm delighted with that. It wouldn't be the biggest shock in the world if he turned up in the amateur (Connacht Hotel) handicap at Galway on Monday. He is entered in that but isn't in the winners' hurdle. He'd have a big weight but Harry (Swan) or Josh (Williamson) could claim off him.
