Solitary Man
Has a particular fondness for Killarney and won for the fifth time there three weeks ago, where he beat What Path by 1.5l over a slightly shorter trip; was just doing enough, so headgear back on; likes good ground.

From the connections
“Solitary Man gave us a pleasant surprise here, he handled the 2m1f better than we thought. His jumping was a big help. He's a hard horse to place but there is a better programme for him after Galway - Enda Bolger, trainer.”
“Solitary Man had not been away with the weather so I put a few lads off him. But it worked out. His jumping has always been great, I was just worried about fitness. He might end up at Galway - Enda Bolger, trainer.”
“Solitary Man had a good run at Ballinrobe last time and this was the plan after that. I'm really looking forward to him next year when he goes chasing - Enda Bolger, trainer.”
