We all had gloomy faces after being beaten in Clonmel the last day but it’s all worked out for the best. . He’s a nice horse and came recommended from Aubrey McMahon and Aidan Fitzgerald. . All the lads (Keep It Simple Syndicate) are from Clane and are a great bunch of lads and they will have great crack in Clane tonight!
