After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 4th Nov, 2014 (1st)

He was clever and he's as good as we thought he'd be. All going well he'll come back here for the Drinmore.

D T Hughes

After race at Naas Sat, 9th Nov, 2013 (1st)

he's a nice horse. I thought he was in a bit of trouble at one stage but he stayed on really well. I suppose the Royal Bond Hurdle could be next; it's not set in stone but we're thinking that way and I think he'll be a little better going right-handed.

Philip Fenton

After race at Fairyhouse Sun, 31st Mar, 2013 (1st)

It often backfires when you run two in one race. The other horse (Real Steel) was a bit free with Jane, but he'll be alright next year. The Tullow Tank had two respectable runs over hurdles. The reason we went that direction is because he's a bit buzzy and those runs helped him grow up. On his last couple of runs he hung a bit right. He went a bit right today, but had the rail to lean into.
