After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 13th Apr, 2021 (1st) 
Obviously he was a lucky winner, Danny was unfortunate at the last, but that's the name of the game,. He jumped well, travelled well and made one bad mistake down the back. I thought I'd pick him up at the back of the second last but he hasn't found a whole lot, he kinda did that the last day.
