After race at Navan Sat, 18th Nov, 2023 (1st)
He's a quick horse. He probably got racing a bit early but he won so it's great,. The other horse (Dee Capo) ran a serious race, Jack (Kennedy) said he tried to hang off the track on the far side. He probably gave away a lot of lengths. Jack said he thought he was going to pull him up, but when he straightened out he sprinted again. I had the one-two so I won't complain.
