After race at Cork Fri, 30th Apr, 2010 (1st)

We thought he'd need the race but he is gutsy and I have to give Keagan plenty of credit. We walked the track twice and given where he was drawn he decided to stick on the virgin ground. The Greenlands (on Guineas weekend) will be next for him and then it'll be Royal Ascot. He is a good replacement for Dohasa and everyone is happy. The Wokingham was the Ascot race for him before today and we'll just see what the handicapper does with him now. He may have needed the race today but you can't keep a good horse down.

He deserved that after running so well at Sandown last time out. That will be a nice confidence booster for him. We were a little concerned about the ground but the best of the ground is on the inside rail. He is developing all of the time and with another year under his belt he is going to make a lovely sprinter.

After race at Down Royal Fri, 29th May, 2009 (1st)

He's Keagan's favourite ride but we had to take 5lb off here tonight. He's a good honest sprinter and he's owned by one of my longest clients in Mrs Battina of Anamoine Ltd - it's a real pleasure to train for her. We'd like to think that he'd grow into a Listed sprinter but he has to improve a little but more.

After race at Dundalk Fri, 7th Nov, 2008 (1st)

Rain Delayed was very impressive there and looks a real sprinter to look forward to next year.
