Dundalk Wed, 8th Nov, 2023  Skontonovski We got 4lb for the other night and we were forced to run him today, he wants a mile. The only thing I will say is I thought the ground was riding slower tonight and I suppose it made a big difference to him. Jimmy (Fairhurst) and the boys from Ardee own him and they wanted to dedicate it to a fella called Pat Coyle, a great friend of Jimmy's who passed away a few weeks ago. He loved going racing. I had to run him too because it was the last chance in that grade, he has gone up above it (new mark of 68).

Dundalk Tue, 15th Aug, 2023  Skontonovski He has been running solid away there all year and he wanted a bit of good ground, and we hadn't been getting it the last six weeks. Ronan was class on him there today, he was drawn 13. The pace is not breaking down today, they are being there all the way. The top three were there all the way. Yeah he will (get a good stint over the winter series in Dundalk), we will try and win with him again. When you have a horse like him, the handicapper stops him for a while and then you have to wait, but he is a sure-fire winner every year.
