After race at Ballinrobe Mon, 26th Jun, 2023 (1st)

When he was dropped out in England he seemed to lose interest, and a mile and two was probably too quick for him the last day. I thought with the tight track and, if we got him to jump out and go forward, he could be in with a squeak. He was second three times before Christmas and then disappointed and we were still figuring him out. These older geldings sometimes get their own ideas, but he was true and honest today. It’s a nice pot to pick up. We’ll see what the handicapper does and we might go back over hurdles with him.

After race at Down Royal Fri, 28th Aug, 2020 (1st)

It was probably made easier for him with what went on, but in these type of races you can have that happen. They are there to be jumped. He was travelling away and jumping away in front, and he is two from two now. He’s a nice horse and he’s going the right way. He could be a nice horse over hurdles. He probably won’t (go back to America), he will keep tipping away here and obviously have to keep stepping up in grade now. Maybe on the Flat he had gone a bit stale. He was a highly-rated horse on the Flat. He always looked like he would take to jumping and he has.
