Dundalk Fri, 22nd Sep, 2023  Hale Bopp He has had a few problems and was running into form recently so delighted to get the right side of a close one there. He ran well in Gowran and ran well the previous day in Gowran so he had two goodish runs and, obviously, his handicap mark had dropped which gave him a chance anyway. Good to get him back here, hopefully there might be another one along the way. The race was set up well for him and I thought two down he might win snug but it got a bit slow then for a while, but he battled strong in the end.
