After race at Leopardstown Thu, 6th Jun, 2019 (1st) 
Three-horse races are notorious and he’s an extremely idle colt. He had a hold up over the winter so he’s only on his way back. He needed the run in the Derrinstown and I think he’ll progress a lot from today’s run. He got there to win easy and got a bit tired again,. Ideally what he’d love is a real true run race where you can ride him from off the pace and produce him. We’ll see how he comes out of this race and speak to the owner but the Irish Derby is a definite possibility — the logical place to go with him. I’m happy because there is plenty of improvement in this horse. It was a workmanlike performance, and the ground doesn’t really matter for him. He’s a good actioned horse and handles good to firm ground well. That’s lovely ground out there and perfect for every horse. He’s bone idle and that’s why he’s difficult to get fit. He does absolutely nothing at home.

He's a nice colt and I see him as a potential Stakes horse for next year. He's a lovely balanced colt, and I thought it would take a smart horse to beat him today,.
