That was hard work! We only have him a couple of weeks and he's a smashing big horse so hopefully we hold on to him,. I think he'd have a grand future up here for the winter. Dusty (Foley) said they thought an awful lot of him in Harrington's at once stage and then his form just petered out a little bit. He's a nice horse and it's my first runner ever for Noel (Hayes of Genesis Thoroughbred Club). It was grand to get a good start so the only way I can go now is down!. He's a lovely horse and he gave him a great ride. He sort of half stole it from the start so it was a brilliant ride too. It's great for everybody. Adrian McGuinness, trainer
