From the connections
“I bought Pillar Of Hope two years ago at Tattersalls [18,000gns]. I ran him at Leopardstown recently when I thought the 1m1f trip was too short for him, he was finishing out the race well. The longer trip worked, young Patrick [McGettigan] from Donegal used to ride out for me in Letterkenny so a real Donegal experience so it is - Patrick Sweeney, trainer, speaking to Racing TV”
