Leopardstown Sun, 10th May, 2026 Truth Be Told He’d been working well. I’d be good friends with Kris Weld and he recommended him, which is always a help. I liked him watching his last couple of runs. He wasn’t long gelded then, when Dermot had him, and you could see on his last couple of runs that he was really starting to enjoy it. Dermot obviously thought plenty of him, he was his Galway horse. I just loved the way he won going away in Thurles, that’s why we bought him. Luckily enough Ken (Campbell) was looking for a horse. I thought he’d fit the bill ideally, instead of buying a yearling I said we’d buy a fun horse. He looks like he’s going to be that anyway. They went a nice gallop and you’re able to come off the pace here today, so it suited well. All the gaps opened up, and he got a lovely run through them. He won well and hopefully he’s a bit of fun for Ken. There might be something for him on Guineas weekend. He won over a mile-and-a-half around Thurles, but that’s an easy mile-and-a-half. When he starts stepping up in class we’ll see how far he goes but he’s bred to stay. He’s closely related to Royal Diamond, who won an Irish Leger.
