After race at Sligo Sun, 1st May, 2022 (1st)

it’s nice to get this one on the board and it was a cool ride. Jack's agent Ken Whelan told me this lad can ride and he was right!. I only have the horse about six weeks and a great bunch of lads from Cork City own him. I’ve had a bit of luck for these owners before and win, lose or draw they enjoy their racing. He likes a bit of ease in the ground and he probably has a good enough mark over hurdles but he hasn’t got the bottle for it. Hopefully that might come right in time.
