Man proves Honest in opener

He's in at Down Royal next week and we might possibly run there,. He's a low grade handicapper and if he's alright we might run again. He battled well today. I watched it from the last hurdle so couldn't see the finish . I was just doing plenty of shouting and roaring. I was sure he was beat.

Moment starts to repay faith

I bred him myself and sold him thinking he was a very good horse but my horses just weren't running well,. Hand on heart I still think he could be a very good horse but today is the first day he's showed that he's a good horse. I just hope he can justify the colours. I'd love to think he could be half as good as Beef Or Salmon but a third would do!. He's only five turning six so will keep to hurdles this season but chasing is his game and he wants better ground. He's done his job today in a good spot for Joe.

Stamina proves the Key

I fancied him. He was a bit disappointing at Down Royal (last time over hurdles) but some of mine were out of sorts then,.

Vic lunges late to cause shock

Graham gave him a fantastic ride and it's his first winner on the track,. He had a little issue with breaking blood vessels and I didn't think he would handle the ground today. He could go to Down Royal on Boxing Day. On a going day he's a decent horse.
