Tramore Thu, 10th Oct, 2024  The Blaggard He got his name because he is a little bit quirky. He's learning away and he's a nice horse going forward. It's nice to see the form of the Listowel race working out, but he still has a lot to learn. He's coming along nicely (physically). It’s nice because we invested in a lot of stores last year and two of them have won maidens this year. He was only a €2,000 store.

Listowel Sat, 28th Sep, 2024  Kingdom Calling This week only three of our runners hadn’t finished in the first six so that was good, although for us, it is the one week where that isn’t enough. It is all about winners here so I’ll take this,. I’m delighted as he had been making a fool out of me last year and is a lovely horse going forward and I think he will improve. We thought he was a bumper horse last year but he was running too keen and was petering out at the back-end of his races. The last day in Tramore, Philip Enright got him to relax, to breathe and do everything right but he thought mentally he was still childish. Richie (Deegan) got him to settle early on in today’s race, crept into it although the race fell apart in front of him.
