I wasn't sure if it was the right thing to do but it appears it didn't come too soon for him. He will have a small break now and come back here at Christmas time. He is not a superstar yet so we won't bring him to Leopardstown.
Oliver McKiernan
That was a long time coming. We brought him to Punchestown around this time last year and we thought he wouldn't be beaten but he let us down badly. He let us down a few times since as well. I suppose you could describe him as a little bit of a rogue. That was his first time running over three miles and he wasn't too tired at the finish. He will go for another handicap next and he will go back over fences.
Oliver McKiernan
