He is my second winner. God knows how many seconds we have had with different horses on the track. He won a maiden for us at Dundalk [April 2012] and he was placed a good few times last year and that was his first run today after a break. He was fresh and we thought he would go well. He won when we were training him on a hill at home but we gave that up because of drainage problems but we are using it again now and it is the right job for him. He doesn't do a whole lot under pressure and he gets swallowed up in his races, so we said we'd get to the front today and just keep going. He takes a pull and when he gets swallowed up he just throws in the towel. John Robert Hagan, trainer
