After race at Punchestown Wed, 28th Oct, 2009 (1st)

A change of tactics today! I told John to ride him like a non-trier, not to come out of the pack until the last,. He wasn't seeing his races out but finished today. He'll be some horse to come up the hill in the Vincent O'Brien (at Cheltenham).

After race at Naas Wed, 22nd Jul, 2009 (1st)

I'm delighted for Gary. He came to me on a week's work experience and his mother told me he wanted to be a jockey so I suggested he go to the Race Apprentice school and he's only just out of there.
