Captain back on song

Tom Taaffe's Glenfinn Captain got back to winning ways with a confidence boosting win in the featured Wilderness Chase at Clonmel today. Thu 30th Oct

After race at Gowran Park Sat, 14th Feb, 2009 (1st)

He is a Grade Two horse what you see is what you get. He will have a little break now and come back for Fairyhouse and Punchestown. I think he will get 3 miles on better ground Mark [Walsh] said the ground is very bad out there.

T J Taaffe

After race at Clonmel Thu, 13th Nov, 2008 (1st)

This horse had colic in January 2007 and it was touch and go with him, he nearly died. Obviously he is coming back to himself and I'd like to thank J P [McManus] for being very patient and letting me do my own thing. We'll have to think about where to go next, The Boyle Sports Gold Cup at Cheltenham in December is a possibility.

T J Taaffe

After race at Clonmel Thu, 30th Oct, 2008 (1st)

Glenfinn Captain went through all of last season with one novice chase win despite having a rating of 135. We'll play away with him in simple races next.
