After race at Roscommon Mon, 25th Sep, 2017 (1st) 
he was very unlucky he didn't win in Listowel and got 5lb for it and I just thought the 10lb (claim) would help him today. He's gone up 35lb coming here today and I was disappointed when he got 5lb in Listowel as he (handicapper) only gave the winner 7lb; he’s not always right!. The plan was to race sixth or seventh and take our time. I told him (Ryan) if he's not travelling to just sit and wait and go for him in the straight as it's a long straight. he's only a three-year-old and probably should have won four races this year and he's the first winner out of the mare (What ABout Me); she was a 94-rated mare and was only a short-head off black-type. The first foal actually had to be put down so this is the first one to race.
