Dundalk Wed, 28th Oct, 2026  Roman Harry He suits here, he's a horse that likes the all-weather. We tried him a couple of times on grass and while he travels well on grass, he just wheel spins and can't pick up on it. He seems to get a grip on it here. Went to Laytown and strongly fancied him, and it just didn't happen for him. Came back here today very, very confident. I rang Paddy last week and said that I might have one for him. He's a good guy and he would always help you out. Great for him, I'm delighted. We had a chat before the race and if they went fast, we would sit back a little bit, but if they went slow, we would sit handy. The whole thing is a bit of cover with him; that's the main thing. Once you get cover with him, and keep filling him up, and make him think he is Frankel, he finishes off well. He loves a bit of confidence and that's the way to ride him. He likes to be fresh, so we will give him three or four weeks and we will come back. He loves that surface and he's a better horse on it. Niall McCullagh did a lot of work for me with him and he was unlucky on him a couple of days. That's our third winner of the year and we've only had less than 20 runners, it is nice.
