Sun 28th Dec

After race at Limerick Thu, 27th Dec, 2012 (1st)

that's his eight win and his sixth around here so it's definitely a case of horses for courses!. I told Brian (O'Connell) 'don't you ever give up and if you're in within shouting distance at the top the hill to keep him going at all costs!' Today was the plan and you can't beat a bit of luck!

John J Walsh

After race at Gowran Park Sat, 18th Feb, 2012 (1st)

He refused to race here the last day as he didn't get away at the start,. He travelled like a fair horse today and won easily. I didn't expect it. We'll find something again for him in a few weeks.

John J Walsh

After race at Cork Mon, 2nd Jan, 2012 (1st)

Davy gave him some ride, there's no two ways about it! I couldn't fancy him coming here today as he'd only won in Limerick before.

John J Walsh

After race at Limerick Sun, 11th Apr, 2010 (1st)

That's his fifth win around here, we can't win anywhere else with him. We'll have to wait and see what to do next, he wouldn't want the ground to get any quicker.

John J Walsh

After race at Limerick Sun, 15th Mar, 2009 (1st)

Jack Absolute will run over Easter next, probably at Fairyhouse.

John J Walsh

After race at Limerick Sun, 1st Feb, 2009 (1st)

That is his third win at Limerick so he is a bit of a course specialist. He disappointed at Punchestown last time but he had muck in this throat. He'll go for another handicap in a few weeks time. (EM)
