After race at Dundalk Fri, 3rd Jan, 2014 (1st)

Victor's beach had a chance on his run here the last time and Shane did exceptionally well to get him covered up and delivered at the right time. Shane only joined us a few months ago and while I didn't make him any promises, he works very hard and has been a big help to me at home; hopefully that win will help to kick him off.

After race at Dundalk Fri, 7th Dec, 2012 (1st)

The step-up in trip helped and he is tough and genuine. It's great to have Shane back from his holidays (from a three day careless riding ban picked up at Leopardstown).
