After race at Punchestown Wed, 15th Jan, 2020 (1st)

He was unlucky the last day when he fell and ran a good race in Navan before that so it’s grand that he’s put his head in front,.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Navan Sun, 11th Nov, 2018 (1st)

He's a nice horse, a big baby,. He'll be a horse that won't do much more this year. He'll have another run in a bumper, I'd say that's all he'll do this year, but he's a horse for the future. He was behind the bridle the whole way and only got going at the end.
