'They rang me looking for a cheap horse' - Son cheered home at Roscommon

Mon 29th Sep

After race at Downpatrick Fri, 10th Oct, 2025 (1st)

He's very hardy. He's a funny, quirky horse at home - some days he would run away with you, other days he wouldn't want to go. He seems to be in the form of his life at the moment anyway, thank God. We had to make plenty of use of him in Roscommon because we knew two and a-half (miles) was his minimum. Hopefully, when he gets up to three miles, he will be better again. He mightn't have to make his own running. They (ManAboutHorse Syndicate) are a new syndicate - half of them are in Spain, and some of them are in America, and then there's a few here. It is great for them and they will enjoy tonight. They enjoyed last Monday and I don't think they got home until 3am, they will be the same again!. We'll see how he is, there is a two and a-half in Wexford for him at the end of the month. It would be nice to go there for the lads who are all from Wexford and I do think he will be better left-handed. He takes a bit of riding going right-handed. We'll try him left-handed. I had him in the chase here today and there was no point running him against Small Town Hero. He will go chasing again, we might go for one more hurdle and then go chasing.
