Naas Sun, 23rd Mar, 2025  Hurricane Ivor When he’s on song he’s on song!. He worked really well the other day up Walsh’s Hill (at the Curragh). Scott rode him and he tanked up there. I had no idea, I thought the ground was maybe a bit heavy for him but when he’s in a going mood like that he’s very strong. He loves bossing it. When he won last year on the Curragh, actually on good ground, Shane let him just roll along. As he’s got older seven furlongs seems to be no problem and he might go a mile. He’s such a cool dude. On that ground if you get away they can’t make up ground on you. He just loved it and Scott said the more he pulled out of him the more he wanted to run away with him. He’s a character. He’s been some servant to Fiona (Carmichael).

Fairyhouse Wed, 1st Jan, 2025  Good Deal I thought he was impressive. He’s been off the track for a while and hasn’t been on grass or anything. I thought he’d need the run. Eoin gave him a lovely ride, he got it easy enough in front and quickened well off the bend. He had the form, but had just been off the track for a while. He’s nearly 17 hands, he just had two runs and we let him off. We were coming here hoping for a nice first run and maybe win the next day. I’d say he’ll be sold, if not he could go for a winners' bumper.
