After race at Naas Wed, 24th Jun, 2015 (1st) 
I fancied him big time on Saturday, and he seems to be getting more and more confident. Donagh gave him a great ride. He's a much different horse to last year, and has come on again in confidence as much as anything. He's entered in the Curragh on Friday, and we'll see how he is in the morning before deciding anything. I think he can win a nice pot this season.
