After race at Thurles Thu, 24th Mar, 2011 (1st)

He was probably lucky today. The horse that fell appeared to be travelling quite well,. He needs an extra half mile or even a mile. He's a real chaser for next year. We'll try and win another hurdle and he'll go for a winner's race over 2m4f or further. The ground was probably too dry for him today and he'll wait for rain before he runs again.
