Punchestown Fri, 1st May, 2026  Avalo Last year, in fairness, he always ran great races. On his second run at Wexford last year he travelled so well around there with Jake Coen and I was keen to drop him back to two miles and get in here. Seamus Perry and Brian Larkin bought into him and it’s worked out great for them. To come to the Punchestown festival and get a winner is brilliant. Our lad has been known as a weak finisher and a bridle horse but he dug deep today. He’ll tip away for a couple more handicaps and he’ll end up being a nice chaser.

Fri, 17th Apr, 2026  Catching The Moon It’s a real honour to pick up this ride for Sheikha Hissa and the Shadwell team and I’m very excited to ride her. I’ve ridden her plenty over the last six weeks or so and sat on her last on Wednesday. She always feels great, she’s a beautiful filly who does things with a lot of ease.
