in fairness Whiskeywealth was going to do that in Thurles the day he fell. Maybe we overfaced him going for the Dan Moore (Chase) - they maybe went a half-stride too fast, but I still think he ran below par that day. I still think he’s a better horse over fences. If you look at his form last year (when falling at Fairyhouse) he jumped the last a length in front of Dinoblue. Maybe she’d have beaten him but that was savage form and I still think there is a good prize in him. He might go for the Shamrock (Handicap Chase) at Gowran (on March 9).
