After race at Galway Sun, 1st Aug, 2010 (1st)

He won here on this day two years ago. He was thrown in here off a nice weight. He ran well here on Monday evening over hurdles and we decided to take our chance. I thought the ground might have a been a shade quick. I'm delighted he won a big pot and Bryan was good on him. It's his first time riding for me.

we'll aim Banna Man at Galway now and he enjoys that better ground.
