He is a good horse, he loves it. He did keep finding. With the new jockey today, first time he had sat up on him - we had to talk him through it!. I was wondering was he after going fast enough. He was headed, but he stays real well. Two miles stretches him a little bit. There's a burst of speed and energy in him, but only for so long. There's a two-mile qualified-riders' race down the road. If we run him over two miles again, we'd probably ride him slightly different. Out in front, two miles, he's not a real galloper. They came up behind him the last day and they drove him on. He has some constitution, I've never seen him come off his feed.

I haven't had too many runners now, in fairness!. My son Michael got him in a claiming hurdle in Clonmel during the summer. We bought him as a hurdler and we had him at home a few days and we said this isn't a hurdler, this is a Flat horse. He had a good run here and then on his last run he kind of got stopped, he didn't get a clear run and he's a lad you have to keep him going once you get him going. Seamie Heffernan, what can I say?. I'm farming at home and we have four (horses) in at the moment. We only took out the Flat licence since we got this horse. We are bitten by the bug now on the Flat! We'll keep him going.

Martin White (owner/breeder) is a Limerick man so it's great that he's after winning here for him. He bred him as well and we're delighted with that. We're delighted for the horse. We were a bit shocked that he was favourite in Roscommon because there was a horse rated 103 in it. He shouldn't have been favourite, everyone was disappointed bar ourselves because we knew he'd come on from it. We were a bit worried about the ground, that it was better than yielding when we walked it, but the rain just came in time. Colin was delighted with him and he'll get further. Mentally he was an awful lot better today. Colin was brilliant on him but he dug it out as well. It's onwards and upwards, I think mentally and physically he'll improve and improve to better things.
