After race at Cork Mon, 10th Apr, 2023 (1st)

He had a lot of runs in point-to-points and his first run on the racecourse so maybe that livened him up and he was very good. My Dad (William, a Cheltenham Foxhunters Chase winning jockey) is a farmer and my uncle Eugene trains the horses and everyone works together and it seems to work well. I won the pony race on this card on a serious pony called Murphy Brown here a few years ago. I'm hoping to be a jockey but I'm in college in Cork and will get that done first. my horses have been hitting the cross bar but are running competitively so I can't complain. This horse has always worked nicely but has just taken time. He was impressive but I don't know what the opposition was like so we won't get carried away. I might run him again next week in Tramore. sadly his previous owner P.J. O'Driscoll, from Bandon, passed away last September having shown a lot of patience with the horse. He missed today but is probably looking down on us and brought us some luck.
