I was congratulating Pat Martin (trainer of Reckless Lad) as I thought we were chinned and his horse had got the record,. He just hit the line the right way. He deserved to get it because he's been running very consistently. It was great for the boys. Stephen (Thorne), that works for me, set up Shamrock Thoroughbreds and it's great to get a win with him. He's a real fun horse. The boys are getting a great bit of fun and he's making a few quid all the time as well. I think there's a claimer here in January for him and he'll tip away in handicaps as well. He loves the all-weather. Adrian McGuinness, trainer
