After race at Gowran Park Thu, 23rd Jan, 2014 (1st)
He's a good tough horse and won his bumpers well. Things happened a bit quick for him at Leopardstown and my horses were a bit flat over Christmas. He was caught a bit flat-footed today but got a good strong ride. He'll stay further and we might stick him in a novice over a trip next. He does nothing in a hurry but has been working very well the last ten days. He'll make a nice chaser down the road.

After race at Killarney Sun, 12th May, 2013 (1st)
He got no run in the Goffs Land Rover Bumper and he got murdered everywhere. He will be put away now and will come back around Listowel time for a winners bumper. All he'll do is improve. He was bought as a replacement for The Fonze, hence the name (actor Henry Winkler played the role of The Fonze in Happy Days).
