It's our home town, my son has ridden him and he is half-owned by Natalie (wife) and a good crew of people and a few from around town. This is where you want to win and it was a fantastic ride by Jack. Jack had a winner here at the October meeting and this is his first festival win. Everything is down to the young lads at home and their friends who come in riding out. Ollie is 13, rides him every day, led him around today and when we worked the horse last week, he said the horse was buzzing!. It cannot be done without them. My Dad is here today, Mam is at home probably watching the re-runs and it's Dad's first time at the races in a while; this is what it's all about. The horse is out of a full-sister to Berties Dream who won at Cheltenham for us and we bred him ourselves between Natalie and Tony Kilkenny. This is magic.

Paul thought he had a shout. We jumped out and went a good even gallop. He’s a hardy horse and takes a lot of passing. A small horse like him wants a tight track. He popped away lovely over the hurdles and it’s great to get it.

the form has stood up and he’s never run a bad race. This horse thrives on racing. Jack has never ridden a bad race, and he did exactly what he was told there. It’s Jack’s first winner, and he hasn’t ridden in ten races yet. He might change to conditional sometime during the winter because he can do very light weights. He’s 16 and has just done his junior cert. When he was younger he wasn’t interested in racing at all, and next thing he took off and is flying now. It’s his day.
