Willie Mullins' Impulsive Dancer marked himself out as a smart sort when taking the Listed bumper in Limerick by a healthy margin. Sun 27th Mar

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 3rd Mar, 2024 (1st)

I think the shorter trip was a benefit and he jumped better than he did in Naas. The ground might not be riding as heavy as people anticipated when I see (stablemate) Captain Cody being tapped for toe and that fella going easily at the second last. Captain Cody probably wants a longer trip. I’d imagine both horses will be aimed for the final in Punchestown and they will probably have a run before that.

W P Mullins

After race at Cork Thu, 23rd Mar, 2023 (1st)

He had been very disappointing but Captain Cody (finished sixth at Cheltenham) is a better horse than we thought and I don't think we were hard enough on this fellow at home. Since he was beaten at Limerick we have been much harder on him and I think he is fitter. I think he is a good horse, he has the size to jump and loved that ground. I'm imagine he'll go for a winners' bumper and Aintree is a possibility, along with Punchestown.
