He is consistent and I'd imagine he will go hurdling now as he isn't as well handicapped. His owners might want to go to Galway next week as they are from there but it would be the wrong trip although he owes them nothing so might go to give them a day. The 5lb claim made the difference, he gave him a grand ride and hopefully he will be a better horse next year.

He is a grand horse and obviously Dundalk didn't suit him. I was hoping to go to Tipperary for a 1m1f race but it was called off so then had nowhere else to run. I came here and luckily he stayed (the distance) although I don't like running them from out of the handicap.
