After race at Punchestown Tue, 12th Dec, 2023 (1st)  he's not one that I'd have had my euro on! I wouldn't have been over confident but it's great that he's backed up the last day and went and done it again. I'm really pleased because he's a horse that had hugely disappointed us. We gave him a break, he wears a tongue-strap and obviously has got a level of confidence from the last day and kicked on forward. He won very well the last day and we'll go easy on him now and probably aim at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day or something in the New Year. Hopefully he'll come out of this okay. He has a little wind issue so to see him getting through that is great. P J Rothwell

After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 7th Nov, 2023 (1st)  he had been very disappointing last year but he came back fresh and well after a break. It was the strongest race in the world but it's lovely to get another winner in those colours. JP and his family have been very good to me, I have Weihnachts and this guy in training and Weihnachts has won a few. It's lovely to get this guy's head across the line because he had been a bit disappointing. P J Rothwell
