After race at Downpatrick Fri, 9th Oct, 2026 (1st)  Harry is riding very, very well,. We've had three seconds and a third in our last five runners before today. We've had a lot of placed horses in the last 10 or 12 weeks. The seconditis is unreal! The only answer is winners. It does get in your head, but they are not doing anything wrong. You don't change anything and every day you go racing, you hope you will have a winner and they keep getting placed. That horse won here a year ago. That (Shark Hanlon Racing Club) was my big syndicate and a lot of the people are after leaving. In fairness, there's about 20 people stayed in and they have been rewarded. He loves it here. He's in at Fairyhouse again tomorrow and he might end up there. We'll see how he is in the morning because his ground is going to be gone very shortly. He got his ground today. Everything is running well for the quality of horse I have, I haven't got stars. The 0-100s are maybe more competitive than a 0-110. John Joseph Hanlon

After race at Downpatrick Mon, 25th Aug, 2025 (1st)  Danny (Mullins) rode him the last day and when he came back in, he turned to the syndicate and said 'this is one I left behind me'. He said everywhere he went, he ran into trouble. We are after being very unlucky with him - one day a horse brought him out in Down Royal. Getting his ground is another thing. There was a 15lb turnaround with the favourite (Wing Back) today. They (Shark Hanlon Racing Club) are a great crowd. It is a big syndicate we have and this year I went back to get money off some and some pulled out, but all this crowd stayed with me. I think there was 30 left there now, and there was 60 or 70.
