Dundalk Fri, 14th Mar, 2025  Hightimeyouwon I didn't think he would stay that trip in a handicap, but in that grade he is too good for them. There isn't a claiming race programme that suits this horse now and he is quite stiff in the handicap and is a nine-year-old so, if we get him back, we will give him a complete break and we might get him back in the summer months for a couple of races on the turf. He's been a great soldier and he means a helluva lot to me, and has been a great flagship horse for me over the winter period to get me started and get my name out there. I've a lot to be grateful to this horse for and for the owners for keeping him going. A very consistent, fun horse - he is exactly what it says on the tin. We will be happy to keep him, but best of luck to the next man if they get him.

Dundalk Fri, 14th Feb, 2025  Hightimeyouwon we told Jack to ride him as he found him but he had employed hold-up tactics the previous night so did something similar. He was mindful that there might be one or two that might go off quick. The race ended up in two halves early-on, so it looked hard work at the top of the straight. It didn't look like he would get there but he ground it out. His class is above these but, unfortunately, there is no programme for this horse coming up. There's limited races and limited opportunities for him and we also know he doesn't operate as well on turf, so said we’d just take advantage of this race. If we lose the horse, very best of luck to the next man and he has been a super servant.

Dundalk Wed, 29th Jan, 2025  Hightimeyouwon I actually wanted Jack (Kearney) to sit a little bit tighter, but he didn't listen to me! We told Jack Cleary (on Volatile Analyst) to commit latest because he is a strong traveller but ended up being far too keen and raced handy: they went plenty quick up front. Jack (Kearney) was very cool on the winner, he took his time, rode the rail and I’m just delighted the way he has been riding the horses there recently. This horse knocks in one every year. the same weekend I got engaged, this horse won and the weekend I got married he also won. We are due a baby this week so this horse means a fair bit to me!. He's nine and is not getting any younger, but I'm delighted he has won and for all the lads involved. I think there is another 0-95 coming up over seven or a mile.
