After race at Dundalk Fri, 24th Feb, 2017 (1st)

He had the form and was weighted to win it but it's still nice when they go and do it. Conor gave him a lovely confident ride. I felt he was in the grip of the handicap and that's why I put him in a claimer.

After race at Dundalk Wed, 9th Nov, 2016 (1st)

He loves that surface, and all the horses are holding their form well,.

M Halford

After race at Dundalk Fri, 28th Oct, 2016 (1st)

He was not winning out of turn, and Shane gave him a lovely ride as he just about gets the trip,. It's a shame they have to take each other on but they are all fit and well. I'm delighted for Paul (Rooney, owner) as he's so patient.

M Halford

After race at Dundalk Wed, 11th Nov, 2015 (1st)

He's a genuine straight forward horse. He loved the surface and it was a good trip for him. He was doing enough to stay in front. It's a bit different for them here first time under the lights and some look around more than others. He'll give Paul plenty of fun. Unfortunately we had to retire Alvar and he's a replacement for him. He's the type that will give you everything every time you ask him.

M Halford

After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 29th Sep, 2015 (1st)

His rating entitled him to be there. He's a game little fella. He's taking his racing well and getting better with racing. Dusty (Shane Foley) tells me he likes good ground so there is no reason he wouldn't go around Dundalk. He's lightly raced and very genuine.
