Rebel Fitz is an exciting horse

After race at Navan Fri, 11th Jun, 2010 (1st) 
That was one of Keagan's coolest rides. He said before that was how he was going to ride him and did it to the letter,. I'm delighted the way he did it. He's a lovely big framed horse with a big future in both codes and is by a very honest sire. He's a big baby and still not furnished.

After race at Dundalk Wed, 18th Nov, 2009 (1st)
He's a horse I liked all summer and as you can see by the size of him he's one to look forward to next year,. It would have been nice if he had won at Navan first time as we could have packed him away for the year then. My reaction at Navan was that I didn't want to run him on soft ground. I had no doubt about here as he handles the surface well at home. He's a big honest horse and one to look forward to. I've had a great year for Mrs Battina of Anamoine Ltd. I think I've won with everything she has sent me.
