After race at Navan Thu, 10th Sep, 2020 (1st)

I thought he would have won long before now, he always showed us plenty at home. Maybe castrating him has helped. Colin said he was probably in front soon enough and he'd rather have been there a bit later. It's great to get the win out of him. We'll tip away and see what is coming up. He ran a bit disappointing in the handicap at Naas last time but it was his first handicap and as I said he probably needed castrating. We'll look for a handicap or maybe see if there is a winners of one coming up. It's good to get that out of the way anyway and it's good for the owner who is a great supporter.
