After race at Leopardstown Sat, 1st Feb, 2020 (1st)

It’s great to get a winner. I knew today was going to be a tough day - we had a few each-way chances. He tried Graded company and wasn’t good enough so it’s nice to win a good handicap. I’d also like to say a big well done to Olly Murphy who trained his first Grade 1 winner today with Itchy Feet at Sandown. We’re still good friends and I’ll give him a ring later.
