I love the horse, but when he got to the front he was a bit lairy. I knew we’d have to dig deep to be involved never mind win. I think he can win staying hurdles and he’ll be exciting to go chasing next year. I have to thank John Mahon and my parents who were offered plenty of money for him. It wasn’t enough for them, and they wanted to enjoy racing him. It’s important for me to have a horse like him in the yard and thanks to them for letting me ride him. I haven’t been riding all year and I’m still not one hundred per cent fit. I rode a couple during the week just to get my eye rightly in. He’s exciting and it’s good to have him.

He is a really good horse who we initially bought for a lot of money, then sold for a lot of money but that sale didn't work out, as he had an issue. It was a foot problem which wasn't anything major but he returned seven days after the sale (having gone through the sales ring for 275,000 pounds). It didn't bother me when the phone rang to say he was coming back, as he was a good horse and it is great to have winners on these days. Luckily John Mahon (part-owner, celebrating his birthday) decided to keep him with me and my parents. He is a staying chaser and came highly recommended from Ciaran 'Flash' Conroy for Glenvale, so he was right. He is a horse I need in my yard but we are sellers nowadays and if a horse becomes saleable, we have to sell unfortunately. I'd love to have him but he was bought to be sold and I invested myself. That said, I'll talk to John and my parents and it might be hard for someone to buy him now!
