After race at Bellewstown Fri, 4th Jul, 2014 (1st)  I thought he had improved a bit at home as in his work he was pushing our work horse Blue Ridge Lane. He loved the step up in trip. That was the plan for the last few months. We'll look for a handicap over a mile and six or two miles, maybe the big amateur race in Galway. His confidence was knocked in Cheltenham when he was hampered. I won't be rushing to go over hurdles again after that though I'm sure he will go over them again. He's a small horse and doesn't have a lot of scope. John C McConnell

After race at Gowran Park Sat, 5th Oct, 2013 (1st)  he's great! That's seven runs, four wins and three seconds and to win today was remarkable considering he jumped left. Guitar Pete got to him but he pulled it out again and he's becoming a good horse now. The plan today was for Guitar Pete to come and get us. We didn't do that last time when we 'sat' and he got to us too easily. He's probably slightly better going left handed and he'll get a break now. He's is fully entitled to go for the Fred Winter but we'll see what rating he gets; he's not big and wouldn't want a big weight. When he won on the Flat at Hamilton he hung left; he may have a little issue with his fetlock or something and we have time now to try and get that right. John C McConnell
