After race at Dundalk Fri, 20th Nov, 2020 (1st)

He has really learned how to race properly,. He didn't jump as quick as he usually does but it actually worked out to be a good thing as he can be a touch keen in his races. Today he jumped, did things properly, went through the race and finished it off well, hitting the line strong. I think a strongly run six is what he wants.

After race at Fairyhouse Mon, 21st Sep, 2020 (1st)

He was a nice horse to get, plenty of speed, but it was just a matter of getting him to do things properly as he was a bit free in his early days,. It took us a while to settle him down and for him to go through a race properly. You'll see today that he did things right and got the result. Hopefully he can kick on from this and maybe win another little race.
