Kilbarry Saint outclasses her rivals
Thu 15th Feb
Thu, 21st Aug, 2025
If he jumped better in Wexford the last day, he could possibly have won (fourth) and we thought he improved from that run. Hopefully, he can get another one now. Darragh is Darragh and is good. He goes everywhere and comes and helps me out when he can too. Any time he is around, he'll give a hand and is very good that way. I saw the Sam Maguire here earlier today and my old manager Conor Counihan as well, so it was great. Cork (footballers) are on a slow road back but are on the right road, so maybe we'll meet again in another few years.
