I train in Conna, right beside Jimmy Mangan and Liam Burke. I use their gallops so I'd like to thank them,. The last winner I had on the track was for the same owners, Backinthere. The Sheehans are a great family to me, they are builders from Ballyduff, and only for them I'd be nearly retired. I mostly break horses but this year I had a handful to run. I had a point-to-point winner that made £155,000. She's consistent, she's been running in good races and hasn't been beaten too far. The last day was a great run in Clonmel. I said coming up 'was I coming to the wrong place' because she ran well in Clonmel. Darragh is a good claimer and he's not far away from me at home. She's in at Roscommon on Tuesday but I don't know about that. She might go to our local track at Mallow on Friday night. We are waiting for this for a long time and we might celebrate!
