This is a day for old trainers! Arthur Moore and myself, give us the stuff and we might be able to do the job!. He's a grand horse, we could say we were lucky at the last with the other fella (blundering). He pulled hard in Leopardstown last time and he ran a cracking race considering. He didn't stop pulling until going to the second last. Over two miles today they went quicker and he didn't pull as much. He's a beautiful looking horse, a fine big horse. That will give my wife Helen a big gee up at home watching the TV. When he came first she said 'oh I love that horse'. Desmond McDonogh, trainer
