After race at Downpatrick Wed, 26th Sep, 2012 (1st)

He would like better ground. He's been frustrating and even there it's frustrating that he didn't pick up better. If he gets a bit of confidence he could go on. We'll keep him on the go.

Noel Meade

After race at Dundalk Fri, 12th Mar, 2010 (1st)

Fran said he idled in front but that it was snug enough. He got some sort of a rash over Christmas, he was nearly sold, but then they changed their minds. I don't know where he'll go next because I don't want to run him over hurdles until the start of next season.

Noel Meade

After race at Dundalk Fri, 26th Feb, 2010 (1st)

I'm a little bit surprised as I didn't think he was that wound up - he hasn't really done much,. He was bought to go hurdling but the owner didn't materialise and he was also held up a bit. I thought I would leave him to next season - give him a run or two on the Flat and put him away. We won't kill him on the Flat but he'll get a run or two. Tim claiming 10lb is a big bonus for a fella that can ride like him.
