After race at Naas Sat, 16th Jan, 2016 (1st)

It was a good performance (by Roi Des Francs). He had the extra run and probably fitness was the thing there. He likes jumping and galloping and it worked out for him. He's improving. He'll be stuck in all the races at Cheltenham, the RSA and four-miler.

W P Mullins

After race at Thurles Mon, 5th Jan, 2015 (1st)

He may come back here for the Purcell Novice Hurdle and get an entry in Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham, and maybe the Neptune. He's a three mile chaser down the road,.

W P Mullins

After race at Tipperary Tue, 7th Oct, 2014 (1st)

He's a grand horse but he was very weak and Tony did the right thing and took his time with him. He's not a bumper horse and he's more of a chaser. I'm sure he'll probably go hurdling first.
