After race at Killarney Fri, 20th Aug, 2021 (1st) 
He is improving away and I'm delighted with him. This race came up and we had to have a go at it. I have to bring another horse with him to the races, and at Limerick the last day we were a bit disappointed with him but we when we arrived there was white froth out through him. He is a horse who is always a little on the edge and could go over the top easily but there was none of that today and he spared himself. I'd say he is only coming to himself as he had bits of trouble and was hard to get him right. He is progressing away and I'd say the nicer ground is a big help - the dream is for him to become a nice horse. His owner is here today for the first time - it is terribly important that these fellas get out to enjoy themselves watching their horses.

He seems to be improving. His owner (Eoin Barry) is a good man and is based in Boston. He got a fall in Thurles earlier in the year and it didn't help him. It took a long time for him to come someway right. All the horses at home seem to have come into form lately.

I put the hood on him today but he (jockey Sean O'Keeffe) told me to leave it off the next day as he was idle with it. Sean said he was going to keep galloping away mad and thought he'd win anyway (with Greenway Machine's fall), but it is easy to say that! It wasn't the strongest race in the world but hopefully he'll progress from it. He is a fine, big strong horse and is still fairly novicey - he had a fall in Thurles and it didn't help. We'll tip away in that league for the summer and he is a grand horse.
