Jack's the lad at Navan
Jack Kennedy has already enjoyed some memorable days in his fledgling career at Navan and the County Kerry teenager could be set for another good afternoon at Proudstown Park on Saturday. Sat 04th Mar
Barry timed it to perfection. He’s a lovely progressive horse and is only starting to fill his frame.
Mrs John Harrington
He avoided all the trouble and there was a lot of it in the race and he did it well and stays well. He is built for the game and the step up in trip helped and I'm delighted with him. We'll see where we go with him now.
Mrs John Harrington
He was too keen at Navan last time and is still a bit keen. He's a real old fashioned three-mile chaser and will not stay over hurdles for too long. Barry said the penny is only starting to drop now and he won't run on anything but soft ground.
Mrs John Harrington
