After race at Leopardstown Sun, 12th Apr, 2015 (1st)

He's a very fit horse and I thought he'd be hard to beat. He loves that ground,. He's been very consistent and has run three seconds in his last three runs over hurdles. He was balloted out of the Fred Winter and I thought he'd run a very big race in that. He was trained for that.

D K Weld

After race at Naas Wed, 14th May, 2014 (1st)

It was a good workmanlike performance. He battled away and he stuck at it. They went pretty quick up front which helped us. It was a very true run maiden and he stayed on at the finish. We'll go for a handicap with him,.
