After race at Roscommon Mon, 5th Sep, 2011 (1st)

We were worried about the depth of the ground being an issue today, but Declan (Bates) kept him out good and wide on the best ground. He will go for a 0-116 rated race next but he might lack a bit of class. Listowel is a possible but he was tired after that and we will just have to wait and see.

Take A Shot battled well again today and it was a similar story to his win at Tipperary. . He'll go for something similar again and it is good to see him going the right way since picking up an injury 18 months ago.

After race at Tipperary Thu, 2nd Jun, 2011 (1st)

He had to fight quite hard for that, and will go for something similar.
