After race at Dundalk Fri, 11th Oct, 2019 (1st)

We knew he had a race in him off that mark but the draw was putting me off and the surface was a bit of an unknown,. He had a very bad accident around this time last year. He got a very bad cut and we nearly lost him so that’s why he was off the track for so long. Hopefully he’ll make up for lost time now.
