After race at Tipperary Fri, 22nd Nov, 2024 (1st)  It is coming together for him and he has got confidence after his win the last day. Driving through Mitchelstown today I was worried when I saw six inches of snow but when we got here, there wasn't as much and the ground was nice and wasn't deep. I thought he wouldn't have been good enough to win over hurdles with the way he had been running but, until this morning when the programme was updated, there was no chase race for him. I'll see what is coming up although the ground at Thurles might suit him for his next race. Robert Tyner

After race at Clonmel Thu, 7th Nov, 2024 (1st)  I had a huge advantage having Philip as he was worth a lot around there. He didn't miss a beat, got a great run and hardly left 'the paint'. He gave him a great ride,. In Tramore he didn't jump well and they probably went a bit fast early on and he got taken out of his comfort zone. We were hopeful going there as he was working nicely but he was never happy and he had to pull him up. We were surprised that he ran disappointingly. Like all the horses, we're hoping he'll improve so we'll see how he goes. I bought him off Jim Mernagh in Tattersalls and he is an active, loose horse. Robert Tyner
