After race at Gowran Park Sat, 10th Mar, 2018 (1st) 
This is a lucky track for us and we've always got a few winners here. They need time and when you give it to them they tend to improve. He's by Flemensfirth and they can get through that ground.

After race at Wexford Fri, 7th Apr, 2017 (1st)
That was good. He was disappointing at Thurles the last day, we thought he'd run well, but something happened to him at the third fence. He jumped left, Rachael Blackmore rode him and after that she couldn't keep him in the race. We brought him home and nothing showed up so we brought him here to go left-handed and it paid dividends! . He was very good and a little bit more impressive than I thought he would be. I didn't think that he'd go on the ground, I thought it was a bit too good for him. He is still a young enough horse and is unexposed, he doesn't have that many runs, so there is a chance he will improve away. It is unlikely he will run again until Listowel now because he wants softer ground.
