After race at Punchestown Sun, 18th Feb, 2024 (1st)
It probably looked turning in that I was going to finish third, but stamina really kicked in when we straightened up. I’m delighted with him. He’s not reliant on heavy ground, just a test of stamina is what he wants. He’d been running well and threatened to do something like that. That’s as light as I’d go (10st 5lb). He could go for the Kim Muir at Cheltenham or an Irish National. It was a good performance and he stays really well.
