Leopardstown Wed, 10th Apr, 2024  Manhattan Dandy the boys (owners) are very good as we weren't thinking a lot when we got him, so to win three is great. It's great for a little yard like ours to have a horse like him, he's become very consistent for us and hopefully he can win again for the boys during the summer. he loves the ground and I was actually very confident. He probably needed it the last day as he is very hard to get fit. If you look through his runs for the last three seasons with me, it's been his third run that he's done something. As fit as I try to get him at home it seems to take him those couple of runs, he's a big gross horse. He probably should be jumping but last year went so well we decided to keep at this. If the rain keeps coming we'll keep going. It's not that he's ground dependent but he can just handle it better than other horses.

Dundalk Wed, 13th Dec, 2023  Banana Three Most of all it is great for Sean (Jones) and his two kids James and Edward - Edward is down for breeding him and Sean is our biggest supporter. He's a very consistent horse. He'll definitely be claimed with the amount of people that are interested in him. We could have run him in the maiden next week and we knew he would be hard beat. This is what it is all about and Sean has plenty of horses to come forward, so we have to keep them turning. It is our 50th winner of the year, so we are happy with that.
