After race at Dundalk Wed, 6th Nov, 2019 (1st)

he has his little issues with the stalls and it’s more impatience than anything else. He’s a good horse up here, loves the surface and I don’t think he’s ever run a bad race here. He’s typical of the owner (David Spratt). He restocks at the end of the year and he’s here to be claimed for anyone. These races are great and if he is claimed then the best of luck to the next person that gets him and if not we’ll be happy to take him home.

After race at Navan Sat, 2nd Jun, 2018 (1st)

It was trainer error on his penultimate run as I ran him here on soft ground over the extended five furlongs. I was still learning about him and took a chance but I brought him back to Dundalk and he ran a cracking race. We quietly fancied him today as he is a talented horse, and I think he could develop into a high end handicapper over the sprint distances. He likes good fast ground, and a big thanks to David Spratt for supporting me. It was a top class ride by Denis as we went out with a plan in our head and he executed it beautifully.
