Limerick Wed, 10th Jun, 2026  Monvoe He has really turned the corner this year as he was a nightmare last year. He had been free and wasn't racing properly, but for some reason with a winter under his belt, he has come back a different horse and is racing properly. I think the faster the ground the better he is and even today, that ground is slower than he'd like. He is a fine big horse and you'd be thinking he can only improve further. Darren Dwyer bought him and fair play to him, as I'm lucky to have such a lovely horse. I entered him for a 1m1f €100,000 three-year-old handicap at the Curragh on Derby Day and he'll go there next.

Leopardstown Fri, 15th May, 2026  Monvoe I'm delighted with him. To be honest, I thought the 10lb for the last day might stop him. He was very disappointing last year. A lot of lads rode him and they didn't like him. For some reason, he's after turning the corner. He came back in this year and he probably got stronger. Even in Limerick, I wasn't too sure what to expect. The ground was probably a bit dead ,but he won well. Limerick just gave him that bit of confidence and the quicker ground today was always going to be in his favour. The quicker, the better for him. He's nice horse going forward and that'll do his confidence the world of good now, two nice wins in a row.
