He’s a horse that we think an awful lot of, he has wicked gears. We brought him here the last day and thankfully Patrick Mullins minded him. He just doesn’t handle heavy ground even though he has a pedigree and looks like a horse that would. He jumps super. The plan wasn’t even to make it today, but he just jumped so well and he wasn’t going to disappoint him. He should have a nice campaign. He’s in on Saturday at Bellewstown in a 1m4f Flat maiden. He didn’t look to be too extended there, so I’d say we’ll probably have a crack at that.

He'd a great run in Kilbeggan, but we were disappointed and we just thought he didn't stay. In the meantime, he was declared to run in a mile and a half Flat maiden in Tramore and, I won't lie, I was disgusted that it was called off. But maybe it was for luck. I don't know did he just not handle the real winter ground. He's been working well and with loads of pace all year. I'm delighted to give Pa the winner and for his owners Finbar and Grainne (O'Reilly), they bred him and they've been patient with him. I'm good friends with their son Oisin, he's a farrier and is in Australia at the moment. A winners' bumper could be an option, but he will definitely run on the Flat and he's for sale.
