After race at Leopardstown Sun, 1st Mar, 2020 (1st) 
That’s Gavin’s first ride for me. He gave it a good ride and the horse jumped great for him. He’s good value for 7lb. . He could go for something like the Randox Health Ulster National at Downpatrick.

After race at Leopardstown Fri, 28th Dec, 2018 (1st)
He’s a big honest galloping horse and Jack gave him a great ride. I’d say we were a bit lucky as Ruby was after giving his horse a peach, and if he stood up it might have been a different story. He’s more of a three-mile horse than a two and a half miler.

He's a grand, big, honest, galloping horse. He's a big chaser for next year. Whatever he does is a bonus until he goes jumping fences,. Jack said the further he went the better he got in that ground. He'll win plenty of races in that ground.
