Padraig (Mullins, owner) has been with us from the start and it's great to get a winner for him and we're going to bring him to Galway now for the four year old hurdle on the Monday,. He was very weak last year and his flat form was very poor. He doesn't back up his races very well and that's why we space out his races and it took us a while to get the hang of him. We'll stay hurdling for now but we might get to a stage later on where we'll have to do something and could then go back to the flat. Andrew Slattery, trainer
