After race at Listowel Sat, 22nd Sep, 2012 (1st)

That's brilliant. I'm delighted for his owners who are from Oranmore. He is a tough horse and his only going to get better. He will mix it between hurdles and fences now. He had a good handicap mark which I had nothing to do with, thanks go to Val O'Brien (former trainer of the winner) in Galway for that. I only have a small team of horses but they are health and well. He is a good fun horse and Harley said that he will stay further than two miles. The ground made it a good test. I have good faith in Harley and I rang his agent Gary Cribben to book him for the ride before he was even declared.

I did my crucial ligament last Christmas but only had the operation on May 25th.

James Joseph Mangan

After race at Killarney Tue, 12th Jul, 2011 (1st)

His last run at Listowel was just four days after his good effort at Tipperary and it probably came a bit too soon for him. The ground was probably too soft for him that day as well. He will go to Galway or Roscommon next for another Handicap Hurdle.
