After race at Tipperary Thu, 29th Apr, 2010 (1st)

It's been awhile since i've last had a winner at the track. We discovered that this lad had back troubles and have been treating him. Since his treatment he's just turned inside out. He ran well at Cork the last day he just might not have been ready. We'll try and pick up another one for him now.
