Duffle Coat
Only 1-20 over fences, the win coming in the 3m Mayo National in 2024 (good ground); finished a fine second in the Galway Plate that summer but he's been underperforming for a while now and belatedly tries a tongue-tie.

From the connections
“Duffle Coat has finished second a lot lately, so it's great for him to win a big pot. I've been reeled in on him before when I've sent him for home, so I waited as long as I could and the better ground helped him to see it out well this time - Sam Ewing, jockey.”
“I was flat to the boards the whole way. To be fair Duffle Coat is really tenacious and a little terrier. From the top of the hill I gave him a little squeeze and he picked up underneath me. I wasn't overly concerned as I thought we had gone quick on genuine soft ground. His stamina is his forte - Robbie Power, jockey.”
“Jack said it turned into a bit of a sprint and it didn't suit him. A faster gallop would have suited him. He won well at the line and he keeps winning so that's all that matters. There's a winners' of two at Down Royal and Punchestown and there's a Listed race at Wetherby as well - Gordon Elliott, trainer”
“Duffle Coat had never been on grass and it's the first time he has worked properly. He was good. He has to be smart because he had nothing done. Keith said he'll improve stones - Gordon Elliott, trainer”
