After race at Cork Fri, 18th May, 2018 (1st)

I'm very happy with that and he has stepped up from the last day. He was very green the first day and has done what we had hoped he'd do and win his maiden. He idled in front due to a little weakness and he is a tall horse who Colin said would appreciate seven furlongs. We'll likely wait to run him over seven now and let him fill out his frame. He'll grow up to be a nice horse. Colin said it is lovely quick flat ground.
