After race at Fairyhouse Fri, 24th Nov, 2023 (1st)  Mikey gets a great tune out of him, he's very laid-back but he gets on with him,. He won a hunter chase well in Clonmel last year. He runs better fresh because he disappointed at the end of last season. We'll tick away with him and at least he's won one anyway. We could go back for the Tetratema (Hunters Chase) at Gowran with him. W J Burke

After race at Clonmel Tue, 17th Jan, 2023 (1st)  Riding Rebel Fitz and For Bill were great thrills and while I haven't been riding as much on the track recently due to a lot of injuries, my kids love it. My son Dylan has been pony racing champion for the past two years and is a class act but I'll definitely be finished by the time he gets his license!. Fair play to Mikey, by God he is still able to ride them and there's nothing wrong with his bottle! He got great jumps out of him. I've been lucky with Mikey recently with two point-to-point winners but it is a long time since he rode a lot for me. He was out for a long time having had a bad fall but is back as good as ever. This horse was disappointing in very deep ground at Limerick and I was hoping he'd finish in the first five or six. He is a funny horse at home - he works great for the girls but mightn't go at all for the likes of me. He cost the price of a good horse in the early days and it is great for his owner Martin Fleming today, as he has been in poor health. He was due to come this morning but wasn't feeling well enough - he is a dream owner and you'd like to see he him have some luck. W J Burke
