Rigour Back Bob lives out in a field and today's cold weather wouldn't have bothered him!. the horse did us proud last season but Edward said he couldn't believe how well he did during the summer and it took him two runs to get him back fit. The World Hurdle at Cheltenham is my favourite race at the Festival and hopefully he might be good enough to run in it some year.

After race at
Punchestown Wed, 21st Apr, 2010 (1st)
He has been a fantastic model of consistency and he has won his last four novice hurdles but was just beaten in his fifth., . If he could get his jumping right he could be a very good staying hurdler next year. He deserves to stay hurdling for another season but i'll wait and see what the syndicate tells me.

After race at
Thurles Sun, 20th Dec, 2009 (1st)
We're delighted and he has now won two out of three (over hurdles). He'll go for another winners hurdle and we might step him up a little in trip. So far so good anyway and we're well pleased with him.

After race at
Limerick Mon, 9th Nov, 2009 (1st)
the leaders went a hell of a gallop and Andrew (McNamara) made the right decision not to get into the race too soon.
