After race at Limerick Fri, 26th May, 2023 (1st)

I don't know but the is just a different horse this year and we don't give him much work at home. We've changed a few things, the meal and things but I'm not sure what it is. He is a hardy boy and a good oul' horse.

Neill McCluskey

After race at Down Royal Mon, 1st May, 2023 (1st)

He's a good wee horse. I think it is soft enough, but he goes on any ground - he's ground versatile. He's in Downpatrick over fences on Friday night and he may go there.

Neill McCluskey

After race at Downpatrick Sun, 2nd Apr, 2023 (1st)

He's a serious jumper. I was going to run him over fences, but I thought I would give him one run over hurdles. He has been off since August and has never left home, I went to Brian Hamilton's twice I think. That's all he has done. He's an honest horse. He kept finding and hanging!. That's his second win here and that horse has some form, he has won me a lot of money and he has only won two races in his life. We have three or four young horses ready and a few nice horses.
