It’s funny, I’m actually a little bit superstitious. My parents home house is Inis fail, my nanny is buried in inis fail grave yard, Jens apartment is beside my nannies grave. Our first date was in Clontarf around the corner from my mammies house in a Chinese my mammy used to get our “Sunday dinners in” in front of the Chimneys I used to stare out of the weekend house window at. I read into things too much eh ? That and I’m a firm believer in Karma – good things happen to good people.

To be honest I was hoping for a solid result. I believed I could have had a podium and if I had the form I had in Joey I would have possibly got 3rd on the day. I wouldn’t have been happy but at least I wouldn’t have been glum.
It’s plain and simple why and the splits don’t tell lies. The truth is the training load has been too low and I was still very tired from joey and all the traveling / work during the week.
One must take the positives out of it though a kick the backside is needed and that alone was worth the travel.
