After race at Cork Sun, 2nd Nov, 2025 (1st)

In fairness Sean Doyle recommended him to us and it was pretty simple once I saw what name he had, although however bad I am, the only person more pessimistic is his owner Niall O'Leary!. He is a lovely young horse, did it nicely in the end and the second horse is a decent horse as well. I got nervous after his mistake at the second-last but he jumped the last well and galloped out well. He is unbeaten and has done nothing wrong, so hopefully he'll keep progressing. . I was in two minds whether to stay in bumpers this season or go hurdling but he jumps so well at home. We definitely like him and I need to go and look at plans now, but I want to keep him at that trip. . There aren't many options during Christmas so he could run in Leopardstown's Grade 1 novice over two miles. I think nice ground is important to him.
