After race at Limerick Sun, 31st Mar, 2019 (1st)

He had a disappointing run the last day in Cheltenham when we thought he'd run a bit better but he jumped well today and Rachael gave him a lovely ride,. He could go on for a Graded race at Fairyhouse next as we have nothing to lose and see how we go.

Joseph Patrick O'Brien

After race at Gowran Park Sat, 16th Feb, 2019 (1st)

Rachael gave him a great ride because he's an awkward fella. He jumped a bit better today and Rachael had to be strong on him. I'm delighted to get him to win his maiden and he'll probably step into handicap company now.
