After race at Tipperary Tue, 18th Apr, 2023 (1st)

He is handicapped well over hurdles and at Tramore (on Sunday) things didn't happen for him as the ground was too tacky. He wants good ground and is the type of horse who you could run again tomorrow. He isn't big, but jumps fences really well and this gives him more options over hurdles. We'll mix away between hurdles and fences during the summer.
