Three tips for Thurles on Thursday
Wed 05th Feb
Tag, you're 'it' - leaders escape in bumper finale
Tag Man was a helpful 25/1 winner for bookmakers in Punchestown's concluding JP & M Doyle Bumper today, scoring under jockey Davey Roche in a somewhat controversial race. Thu 28th Apr

He did (rally well after the mistake at the last), he seemed to jump the hurdle perfectly but landed on his hind ones first, awkwardly. He jumped really well, it was the only hurdle that was any bit of a blip. We are very pleased with him. He's a good traveller. He was a classy horse in his bumpers - third in a Cheltenham bumper and that was only his second run. He's a horse with a bit of class. We might enter him for probably a Coral Cup or maybe even one of the novice races, we'll see how he is.

James’s Gate has had his problems but he's been in a good place since he came back this summer. We know he has raw talent from his bumper days and we'll see how much we can capatilise on that. I'd like to see his jumping improve a bit but he could be a talented horse going forward. He's a nice horse to have around the place, he's a lovely individual.

He's a tremendous addition to Sean and Bernardine Mulryan's group of horses. He was bought from Pat Doyle, on his recommendation, and I'm very pleased for him as well. He looks as good as Pat thinks he is. I'd imagine he'll go for the Cheltenham bumper and we'll look forward to coming back here as well for the festival bumper here.
