He was nearly sold yesterday, I didn't get any phone call this morning so I said we would drive on. He's an improving horse. He loves the good ground. He's a good jumper and it kind of stood to him there. He's after improving a lot. He was brought down the first day and the stirrup broke on him the second day and he finished third. Cathal is getting a great tune out of him and the owner was delighted but he couldn't make it here today. He's a good client from my father's days so it was great for him to get a bit of success. Maybe go novice hurdling or chasing depending on what way the handicapper looks at him. He'll run away for the summer anyway in some of them handicaps or novices. David M O'Brien, trainer
