Thurles Thu, 5th Mar, 2026  Bon Bon Fizz He is light-framed - like a lot of Pour Mois, and has a light pedigree but is a really, really good horse. I've only had him five months but the minute he came to me and, with the work he was doing, he shouldn't have been doing it, so I knew he was good. I thought he couldn't be beaten in a point-to-point but he made a bad mistake and later fell at the last. He then had a good run here the last day, when he again fell at the last when he probably would have finished second. He is green but has loads of ability and just needed days into him. I think he is a good, good horse and his owners, who are very good supporters of mine, sell their stock. . I have some nice horses at present and him and (hurdles winner) Rebel Budz are my two best ones.

Fairyhouse Tue, 3rd Feb, 2026  Themanintheanorak He’s a lovely horse, we like him a lot. We thought we were unlucky here the last day that we were beaten by one of Charles’ (Byrnes, On Your Way). He got a cut the last day and that’s why he was missing over Christmas. We’ll try and find something else now. JJ (Slevin) rode him one day and said he’s crying out for fences in the summer, on good ground. The only doubt I had today was the ground.

Like any of ours we’d hope he’d step forward for the run as well. We definitely knew we had some nice young horses last year and he was unlucky not to win his bumper, as it got taken off him. He’s a nice horse, he’s raw and he’s going to keep improving. He picked up there once and then just sort of kept galloping. He’s got a bit of class and he’s a nice horse.
