After race at Ballinrobe Tue, 27th May, 2014 (1st)

When he gets into a rhythm he is a lovely horse. They went a fair clip today, I thought he was maybe going too fast early and only for the last ditch he was foot perfect. I don't know whether we will let him off. I'd have the Galway Plate half in my mind, Barry is half thinking of the Paddy Power at Christmas and the Thyestes. Big staying handicap chases are what he will go for and we are going to have a go at a couple of them anyway, so we will discuss it and see. When he gets into a rhythm he seems to be a better horse. The other Black Sam Bellamy horse I have is Sam Da Vinci, he is the same, and I think you will see huge improvement in him this year as well.

He only ran middling at Christmas . the same as Bishopslough and I really fancied the two of them. They must have had something but they're back to themselves now. He's a very reliable horse at that level. He's the type that there's four or five days in rather than one big day. He's a great jumper and should do well over fences.

After race at Fairyhouse Sun, 31st Mar, 2013 (1st)

He was lucky to hold on but it's great to win with him. I think he ran into a very very good horse of Willie's at Punchestown last time,. I think he'll be rested now and will go out for the summer. I haven't had a winner for a while so it's a relief to get one.
