After race at Cork Sun, 12th Oct, 2025 (1st)  It is great to win primarily because of the owners involved and they have been very patient with the horse and with me, as we had been disappointed with how he had done over hurdles up until now. He is my first horse for them and I told them he was a nice horse, so they were very good to trust me. You can see he is not a natural hurdler and jumps a lot better over a chase fence, so that's where he'll be going next, I'd say. . I had been disappointed with him since his bumper win but there is still a nice horse in him and he has much better use of himself over a chase fence. Today's distance (2m4f) is his minimum and he will come into his own over three miles-plus. John C McConnell

After race at Kilbeggan Sat, 10th Aug, 2024 (1st)  I'm with John now having been with Gavin Cromwell, who was good to me, and gave me as many opportunities as he could. Time will tell how good a bumper it was but his work had told us he was very nice. He's a massive chaser in the making and to win a bumper is a bonus. The owners are from Ashbourne and have been very patient as he was one of the horses most effected by rape-seed last May. He could be sold but I don't know what the lads will do as they're in shock. He'll go on soft ground as well as his wind is very good. John C McConnell
