Limerick Thu, 16th May, 2024  Forlio It's a shame none of the owners could make it today and they have been very patient with him. Aubrey McMahon bought him for very small money (2,500gns) but he hurt his back last year and we couldn't get him back in time to run on turf. I didn't think he was a Dundalk horse and the time off has obviously done him good and he has strengthened up. He had some nice runs in the UK and there were some decent horses came out of a Beverley maiden he ran in so I thought he was well handicapped if we could get him back. He has done some amount of work but I did think he would need the run. He (Keane) said he didn't really love the ground as it was sticky for him so normal soft would be better for him. It is great for the lads who were patient and they backed him by the looks of things.

Naas Mon, 29th Apr, 2024  Laugh A Minute He wasn’t winning out of turn! He’s been very consistent. I thought the ground might have gone for him today, but it’s just beautiful ground. We’ve been running him over five but he’s a better horse over six. He stays at it well and long-term he’ll probably end up down in the west (Galway Festival) for the seven (furlong handicap) on the Sunday. He’s been a great servant and it’s great to get his head in front for all the boys. There is a huge crowd of them here today. I won’t be afraid to try seven with him at the right track where the horses are coming back to him.
