After race at Listowel Mon, 3rd Jun, 2013 (1st)

it's nice for Mr Cracker to win as it's his first win in two years. He's a fair horse though and appreciated the better ground. There's a conditions race at Roscommon in ten days time for him next.

After race at Limerick Sun, 3rd Apr, 2011 (1st)

Adrian gave him a great ride. He runs and jumps great for him,. He'll more than likely go for the Power Gold Cup at Fairyhouse next. He's entered at Aintree but won't go there. Adrian said he actually jumps better on worse ground.

Michael Hourigan

After race at Limerick Wed, 29th Dec, 2010 (1st)

He's a nice horse and he'll improve a lot on better ground and going left-handed. He's a superb jumper and he might go for a novice chase at Cheltennham in January. He is entered in the Moriarty at Leopardstown but I'm not sure about that. His main target could be the Powers Gold Cup at Fairyhouse. He's one to look forward to. I rang Michael (O'Leary, the owner) and said to him you'll have to buy this horse as he was about to win a point-to-point by a fence (at Lemonfield) and then he came down at the last! He went on to win at Cloyne after that.

After race at Limerick Sun, 7th Nov, 2010 (1st)

I thought he might have won in any case and they are there to be jumped. He'll go for the Drinmore next.

Mr Cracker jumped well today and was always going to make into a nice chaser. We'll go for a winners' of one next.

Michael Hourigan

After race at Navan Wed, 27th Jan, 2010 (1st)

He's a nice horse and will be better on better ground,. Davy said he had a leg in every parish and was snapping at his jumps. He might be a nice horse some day. I would say chasing will be his game. He's a horse to look forward to. He promised a lot and is only starting to deliver now. He had a few hiccups on the way. He was a free horse but he's not like that anymore. He's only five and is learning a lot.
