After race at Punchestown Wed, 17th Oct, 2018 (1st)
It's a great thrill to be able to win with him with the syndicate he's got. Hopefully Maria (O'Grady's late wife) was giving him a little push. He's a lovely horse insofar as he can run on the Flat and probably could go chasing as well. I'm pleased today is over and we'll see what the future brings. I'm delighted for the girls who have been so kind to support what was Maria's original syndicate.

After race at Leopardstown Thu, 12th Jul, 2018 (1st)
the late Maria, my lovely wife, had just put that syndicate together virtually days before her tragic accident. It's very poignant and I'm really thrilled that the horse has won for all the kind people who went into her syndicate.
