Calum gave him an exceptional ride. He’s been a very lucky horse for us this year winning three times for new owners (IRE Asset Holding Limited) to me. We’ve had plenty of placed horses over the past week. It’s lovely to have a winner and the horses are going well.

He isn't the simplest horse in the world as the demonstrated in Wexford and again out there today,. It is my first season with him and he must have been a 400-race maiden but I've loved him from day one despite him being quirky. . They went very steady today and Tiernan did right to make his move. I thought Gavin's horse (Cromwell, The Dancing Tree) would prefer softer ground and when I read through the form, I thought he had a great opportunity to follow up. It looked a very poor race but I'm glad to win it.
