After race at Wexford Wed, 11th Jul, 2012 (1st)

He did it well. It probably helped that Baily Green came out as it made his task easier. He didn't do a whole lot in front but his class got him through. Probably a longer trip would suit him better.

He'll stay on the go and all the Festivals, the likes of Galway and Listowel will be on his agenda.

After race at Punchestown Sat, 19th Nov, 2011 (1st)

Raptor disappointed the last day at Wexford but made a couple of bad mistakes. I think it just might have been the lack of a run too. He is a fantastic jumper and is very brave. I would have no trouble going longer - to me he is a three mile chaser. However, if the right race came up, the way he jumps I wouldn't be afraid to go back in trip.

After race at Punchestown Sun, 30th Jan, 2011 (1st)

I saw him in the parade ring in France and I thought he was a beautiful horse. At the same time my wife Jackie saw him on the television and rang to ask me what the beautiful grey horse was, so we ended up buying him. He deserves an Albert Bartlett entry after that. He was only getting going at the end there. He was bought as a chaser, he'll get an entry in the two and a half mile race (the Neptune) at Cheltenham as well but he is an out and out stayer. He gallops, jumps and he stays.
