After race at Roscommon Mon, 5th Jul, 2010 (1st)

Six furlongs is really his trip, he is quick and he just got away with it there (over seven furlongs). He travelled terrible and I had to have one of my staff with him the whole way over. He came over here because the lads (the owners) are from just down the road. He won't go to Galway as there is no race for him there. He'll go somewhere the week after.
