After race at Dundalk Sun, 6th Sep, 2009 (1st)

He wants good ground and I brought him here as I thought it was the ideal race to educate him further. Kevin felt he learned a lot from it,. The plan remains the same - to go for the Beresford Stakes, providing the ground is good, and then the Racing Post Trophy.

A Oliver

After race at Leopardstown Thu, 13th Aug, 2009 (1st)

Elusive Award is entered in the Group 1 Racing Post Trophy in October and he is a possibility for the race. He's a big, leggy type of horse and won't be lknocked around so early in his career.
