After race at Kilbeggan Mon, 22nd Jun, 2015 (1st)

I thought it was going to be one of those days. My jockey beat me earlier [Jack Kennedy on Do Try Dolly beat Disputed]. I'll have to stop him riding elsewhere!. He jumps and gallops and will go for something at Galway. He has his job done for us and he's in at the sales.

After race at Kilbeggan Sun, 31st May, 2015 (1st)

It's been a good day and we're probably a bit unlucky we didn't have three. The horses are running well,. Hopefully he'll keep running away. He's in the sales in September and will run until then. We'll mix and match over hurdles and fences.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Downpatrick Wed, 4th Mar, 2015 (1st)

we thought he'd win coming up as it wasn't a strong race and was a big drop in class. We'll see where we go from here but we'll see if we can find another small race to get him a bit of confidence.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Fairyhouse Mon, 1st Apr, 2013 (1st)

He's a proper horse and is only a baby. He's four and is massive. He'll be a serious horse with a summer's grass. . It's a pity that I'm not allowed to train him next year but that's the deal I did with Gigginstown when they let me train their point-to-pointers. They were good enough to let me train them and bring them along and he'll go to another trainer next season.
