After race at Fairyhouse Wed, 25th Jan, 2017 (1st)

He said he loved jumping fences. I was a bit worried about the ground being a bit tacky as he wouldn’t be in love with it but he said jumping kept him in the game,. We’ll see what the handicapper does now. We’ll come back here for a race on Saturday week. Jumping is his game. We were missing the better horses in that race and he’ll be competitive in that kind of grade.
