They went good and hard. He was just jumping well and I didn’t want break his rhythm. He battled it out and he was very good today on the good ground. It’s brilliant, I can’t believe it. I’m 17 and from Tipperary. I’ve had less then ten rides and that’s my first winner today. It’s brilliant to get it. He’s a gorgeous looking horse, we seen him on the online sale. He.was a great mover and we said we’d take a chance on him as he was cheap. When we got him home he gradually got a bit better and started enjoying life a bit more. We changed a few things around with him. We stepped up to three miles today, dropped him in and hoped for the best. I was delighted for Luke. He’s a good lad and works hard, he deserves a chance. He’s been a bit unlucky with point-to-pointers this year, there were a couple for him to ride but different things happened and they didn’t run. I’m delighted he got his winner. I rode a winner for his grandfather Paddy Hogan years ago. He’s only 17 and comes in riding out for me and schooling. He’s very good over a jump, a natural. He’s a good young lad and is hardy. I’d say he’ll be going places. I’m not big enough for him so in time I’ll send him on to a bigger yard. Edward F Power, trainer
