After race at Wexford Sat, 23rd Jul, 2011 (1st)

It's my first year in new premises near Aughrim, and I have four in training at the moment. He was unlucky at Tipperary last Sunday but gained compensation here today.

S Weld

After race at Tipperary Sun, 5th Oct, 2008 (1st)

Ruby suits this horse very well and gives him great confidence. The ground today was heavier than he liked and he ran a bit freely and as a consequence his jumping was average by his standards. He has a lot of ability and we will step him up to Grade 1 company next time when we go for the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse.
