Dundalk Wed, 18th Dec, 2024  Your Call Noel has been very good to me since I was an apprentice and, especially in the last couple of years, we have joined up in a good relationship. I go in there a morning a week especially now that he has gone more to the Flat than jumps. He's a gentleman to ride for and I'm very lucky to be in the position I am.

He came home well enough. That was probably a good run because it was a good race, a much better race than this. Funnily enough this has been a lucky race for me, I think we've won it three or four times. He's a chaser in the making. His owner decided to bring the kids to the rugby instead of the races but I'm sure he'll get a good kick out of it anyway. He wouldn't be a winter horse and after Navan I sort of threatened that we'd give up but then the weather stayed right. I suppose we might try and run him at Leopardstown over Christmas.
