Confidence in Smoker justified

Newcomer Smoker was lively in the market for the Rainbow Communications European Breeders Fund Median Auction Maiden and those that were backing the Motivator colt in the morning were spot on as he prevailed under Colm O'Donoghue. Sat 23rd Jun

After race at Down Royal Sat, 23rd Jun, 2012 (1st)

I'm very pleased with him and he qualified for the ten grand bonus there. I thought he would win but I was afraid that he might just be a bit stupid. He could go for a winners race in Leopardstown early next month. He'll go on to better things . he's smart but still very babyish and stupid.
