After race at Galway Mon, 27th Jul, 2020 (1st) 
Billy (Lee) said they went good and hard early on and when he hit the hill, the rising ground helped him. He did the same at Sligo when he finished well and that is the secret to him. We are giving him plenty of racing but he is still a little ball of a horse and saves a little bit for himself all the time. We'll have to think about running him again later in the week with him. It's a different feeling to have a winner tonight - normally there'd be an army load of us who'd come up for the week and would give it welly; some are still coming (to Galway) but they're not here and can't really enjoy it.

I thought he’d need the run a bit in Limerick and I was hoping for softer ground here.
