After race at Galway Wed, 31st Jul, 2024 (1st)

He takes a bit of winding up. I got a big jump at the second last which probably left me there too soon but he winged the last and galloped to the line. The Barstool Prophets Syndicate includes my father and a bunch of friends from Summerhill and the surrounding area. I trained my first winner in Ireland for the same Syndicate many moons ago and they have been with me ever since so it’s great to train a winner for them at Galway. He was a bit disappointing so to win in Galway today is great for them and he might be a big chaser down the road.
