After race at Tipperary Tue, 25th May, 2021 (1st) 
He was a very backward horse last year and we left him off for three or four months and he seems to have turned the corner since he came in. His jumping has always been a problem for him, even though he has an awful lot of schooling done and jumped well today, bar the second last. It was a poor race but he did it well and he gave him a grand ride and everything worked out well. He is a 2m4f horse on better ground, will improve again for better ground and that's the owner's (John Earls) first winner with me.
