After race at Downpatrick Fri, 13th Dec, 2013 (1st)

He's a progressive horse and he does it when he has to. He's a lovely type with a great attitude. He doesn't seem to be tired after that and he just seems to grind it out in his races. He's very solid and a bit of class won it for him today. Colin's horse (Davyroy) was unlucky at the second last . he was the danger.
