After race at Leopardstown Fri, 28th Dec, 2012 (1st)

He's been threatening to do that for a while. He shows us quite a bit at home,. That seems to be the way to ride him . quietly into the race . he likes passing horses. He jumped very well and it's a relief to get a win. He'll maybe come back here for the next meeting . there might be something for him.

John Queally

After race at Galway Wed, 12th Sep, 2012 (1st)

That was overdue. We might look at a two mile flat race at Navan next and he'll probably come back here for a novice hurdle at the October meeting. (AM & EM)

John Queally

After race at Tramore Fri, 31st Dec, 2010 (1st)

That's my first winner for the owner. I'm very pleased to have a winner for Mrs Mee and I'm also very pleased with the horse's performance. He'll go for a maiden hurdle next.
