I think he's fairly good. He was green when he came off the bridle but to be honest he's never come off it before. Everything we have done with him has been easy. He was to go to Galway. A syndicate of seven lads own him but he ran in Finbarr Cahill's name today because the syndicate form didn't come back. They bought him one night having dinner in Galway and he's out of a half-sister to Hurricane Fly. I'd be surprised if he's not above average. I'm not a great one for winners' bumpers but he could run in one. We worked him for Galway and he worked really really well but he got a little bang in the piece of work and I was afraid to take any chances with him. Danny said he handled the ground well enough. He was bought in the Land Rover Sale and the whole idea was to run him in that but he got an infection in his wither and it took so long to get over it.
