After race at Dundalk Wed, 8th Nov, 2017 (1st)

I bought him in Doncaster off Tony Martin and he advised me that he’d be a horse that would suit Dundalk. We just freshened him up and he’d been working well at home. We were drawn wide and I told Conor not to panic, let him fill himself up and give him one blast. He’ll definitely be coming back here over the winter.
