A fine son of Flemensfirth who engaged in a tough battle with The Brew Master up the stiff Rathcannon hill in the manner of two promising youngsters. They pair quickened away from their rivals up the hill and whilst he could not quite match the winner this fellow had illustrated all the class and tenacity required to suggest his winning days are just around the corner. The winner was a nicely bred sort who was sent off favourite suggesting he is highly regarded so this fellow looks proven against top company on that evidence.
