Delighted to get my first winner on the scoreboard in my new @DurtyNellysIRL breeches @punchestownrace festival. Hopefully their lucky for the season ahead 🤞🍀

[Mark McDonagh @markmcdonagh15]

All credit has to go to @SeanOOBrien and Cathal in the yard, “Shadow” has been a tricky and unique type since the start. The time, patience and work Sean’s puts into this horse is impressive to say the least. Well done Sean!

On 5 Feb 2019, Henrietta Knight and I watched an unnamed 3-year-old loose school at John Costello's Fenloe House yard in County Clare.

I was acting on behalf of the late Michael Grech, as his Racing Manager at the time. We both loved the athleticism and nature of the horse and bought him on Mr Grech's behalf.

That horse was I Am Maximus. The rest, as they say, is history.
