.Ruby gave him a peach of a ride. He was losing his way over fences so I told him do whatever he liked,.

After race at Punchestown Wed, 31st Dec, 2014 (1st)

He jumped well and he likes to be up with the pace. When he woke him up he was very good at the last,. It was a hard decision whether to run him or not, so close after the Paddy Power. He lost no weight there though and he was very fresh the morning after. When I saw there was only a few declared I decided to let him take his chance.

Michael Hourigan

After race at Limerick Sat, 4th May, 2013 (1st)

I've always thought he would win a bumper but the saddle slipped out over his backside at Cork the last day and I thought he would win there.He is a lazy horse at home and I thought the blinkers would sharpen him up but he won't wear them over hurdles.He will go hurdling now and he is fitter than ever. Robbie said that he is a fair horse and he couldn't pull him up. He will go for a three mile maiden hurdle at Killarney now. He wants the ground a bit better than it was today.His owners, Jim and Mary Devine are very good owners. They are from Kilrush but living in London. Jim is a businessman and he hasn't had a winner since Deejaydee won at Cheltenham (won the National Hunt Chase at the Festival in 1999). The winner was bought for just €1,000 as a yearling at Tattersalls Ireland November Flat Sale in 2009 before making €13,000 as a three-year-old at the Goffs June National Hunt Sale in 2011.
