Naas Sun, 10th Nov, 2024  The Busy Fool He’s a lovely big horse. They are a great crowd of guys to train for and they’ve been hugely lucky, we’ve had a lot of winners,. I didn’t want to go over fences until next season so we said we’d keep him for a few hurdle races this year. He won in Tipperary last season over two miles and I felt the step up to two and a half would suit. Obviously Tiernan’s claim got rid of his winner’s penalty. The form of the race in Tipperary worked out well, the horse that was second to him was second in Punchestown at the festival.
Naas Sun, 10th Nov, 2024  The Busy Fool He's a lovely big horse. They are a great crowd of guys to train for and they've been hugely lucky, we've had a lot of winners. They've been very patient with this horse, he was a big weak horse. You can see he's a big backward fella. I didn't want to go over fences until next season so we said we'd keep him for a few hurdles this year. He won in Tipperary last season over two and I felt the step up would suit. Obviously Tiernan's claim got rid of his winner's penalty. The form of the race in Tipperary worked out well, the horse that was second to him was second in Punchestown at the Festival. I think Tiernan will be very important to me this year for some of those handicaps. It was great to have him on board and great that he rode a good winner. He got a very easy lead, he came up the home straight the first time with his ears pricked going a nice steady gallop. With a 7lb claimer off 10st 4lb they gave him, a galloping horse, a very easy lead. I was going to look at the two-mile handicap in Fairyhouse but we'd want a lot of rain for that. We'll creep away. He can come back a bit in trip with an ease in the ground.
Galway Sun, 27th Oct, 2024  Rockbrook I'd never ridden the horse but was talking to Simon Torrens (jockey) beforehand and he said he'd absolutely love the ground. . I let him bowl away out in front enjoying himself, set steady fractions and while the two lads took me on jumping the last, there was plenty of time finishing up the hill and he toughed it out well. Jumping the last, I knew I'd be second but he got upsides, he was gritty so I knew he'd get there.
