After race at Downpatrick Fri, 19th May, 2023 (1st)

I train in Dromara and this is my local track. It is a lovely track, Richard Lyttle and his team are brilliant here. I think that is five winners under rules now. They are all special because it very rarely happens!. I train 16 and it is a labour of love, it is a hobby and a very expensive. It is a tough game, but it is well worth it. This was always the aim for him, but we will make a decision (on his next outing) when we get home.
