After race at Curragh Sun, 10th Oct, 2021 (1st)

It's great, I can always relax in the morning when I know Colin is on board as there are no instructions to be given,. The horse has just been waiting for a bit of juice in the ground. He's been running consistently all season but he's just better when there is a bit of juice. I think there are two more options for him before the season is over although I see it's due to be another dry week next week. I'm the only one praying for rain!. It's great to get that today. It's so lovely because last season when he won, none of the owners were here. We were here on our own all the time so it's lovely to have Gerry and Alicia here. It makes all the difference.
