After race at Thurles Thu, 7th Nov, 2019 (1st)

He won a maiden hurdle in the summer time at Sligo and now he is after winning a beginners' chase. He is no superstar but is after winning two races this year which is great,. He'll be competitive in his own grade in handicaps and he jumped great and Luke was delighted with him. These rated chases are great for those type of horses as that's their level and it gives us all a chance and I wish there were a few more of them.
