After race at Thurles Thu, 28th Jan, 2016 (1st)

He broke down before last season and was then a little sluggish last year. When he ran at Naas recently he launched at the second fence and Davy then minded him to help him regain his confidence but he was back to what he can do today. He's nicely handicapped over hurdles so that is also an option and when he tells us he's ready, we'll go again. He's been a great horse and is owned by William Gleeson who turned 91 recently.

After race at Punchestown Tue, 6th Nov, 2012 (1st)

I thought two miles might be too short for him today . he jumps and keeps galloping, and while he isn't the quickest, is a smashing old horse.

Timothy Doyle

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 4th Mar, 2012 (1st)

there were a few scary moments with other fallers but he is a big strong horse and is getting his act together. We were worried about the quick ground but he got away with it. He jumped great and we'll look for something similar and maybe step him up in grade a bit. He is a smashing horse and keeps trying . my horses are running well at the moment which is half the battle!

Timothy Doyle

After race at Clonmel Thu, 16th Feb, 2012 (1st)

He had plenty of experience but the ground was not ideal as it was a bit tacky for him. We'll tip away now until the ground gets too quick, and he'll go for a handicap.

Timothy Doyle

After race at Cork Thu, 31st Mar, 2011 (1st)

He did it very well. I've no complaints about the jockey, he got on great with him and the horse jumped very well,. He might go to Fairyhouse and Punchestown but wouldn't run on good to firm ground. He needs a cut. Chasing is his game long term.

Timothy Doyle

After race at Thurles Thu, 6th Jan, 2011 (1st)

That was great and he is going the right way. He is a fine big horse with a good temperament. Hopefully there's more to come and that he'll make a smashing chaser next year.
