Two for Elliott with Un Beau Matin

Bought, backed & delivers, all in a week

The words of his former trainer, Charlie Mann, came to mind after Tarquinius took the second at Punchestown. The Aussie said: "He might be one for something like the Eider Chase as he wants cut in the ground and all he does is stay." Now with Gordon Elliott, the grey showed that stamina in abundance to land a good gamble in the €10 Admission Handicap Chase. Sat 17th Nov

"He hasn't found his form of last season yet but his homework has been quite good and it's just been a pity he hasn't brought that to the track yet,"

Gordon Elliott

After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 1st Jan, 2013 (1st)

It wasn't ideal running him back in three days but he was due to go up twelve pounds. We took seven pounds off with the young fella and he is a good young rider. That is his first winner on the track. If he sneaks in off bottom weight we might let him take his chance in the Thyestes. He is as slow as a hearse but he stays galloping.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Leopardstown Sat, 29th Dec, 2012 (1st)

I am delighted for his owners Mary & Tom Furlong. Tom put in all the gallops in the new yard and this fellow has more than paid him back now. We probably ran him back too soon the last day. He stays really well and he really wants further than this.
