After race at Galway Tue, 5th Oct, 2021 (1st)

He is only a baby and is a horse for next year. He is very big and raw and won't do much more this year, maybe run once over hurdles and then we will put him away. It's good for Lisa as it's her 100th winner between the track and point-to-point's. With Jamie (Codd) riding most of the horses, it is hard to give her as many opportunities as she used to have but she is a great girl and obviously a big part of the team.
