A horse for 2022: Sonnyboyliston (Ire) (Power {GB}). He's my best horse, and he's ready for Saudi.
First season or proven stallion: Whatever I can afford! The market dictates, but I've had luck with first-season sires.
Speed or stamina: It depends on the clients, but I would prefer a horse that stays a bit, with size and scope.
Kildare or Meath: My heart is in Meath, but all my kids are playing for Kildare!
Best current jockey: I've the best young jockey in Ben Coen.
Favourite horse you rode: Sinndar (Ire) (Grand Lodge), you always remember your first Epsom Derby winner.
Best horse you rode: It wouldn't be fair for me to pick. I rode world champion stayers and sprinters, so it wouldn't be fair on all those brilliant horses.
The Curragh or Ascot: I live on The Curragh, and it's very close to my heart. But as a jockey I loved riding winners at Royal Ascot.
Best piece of advice you've ever received: Hard work never killed anyone.
