After race at Killarney Mon, 5th Oct, 2020 (1st) 
He has improved with every run and it was a pity the last day when he came down as he was booked for third. Going down to the last today I was hoping he wouldn't do anything silly or miss but he picked up and quickened well. It would have been nice if one of our own lads had ridden him but Keith (Donoghue) gave him a great ride. It's great for Gay and Dymphna Keeley (owners) and Gay rang me one day to see if there was any horse for sale around and this horse was bought from Andrew Lynch (jockey). Andrew is a good buddy of mine and he recommended him for selling. He is versatile ground-wise and I'd say he'll go on soft ground. The job is done with him now and we'll see what happens.
