“PYLEDRIVER is the best horse I’ve ever had anything to do with, and gave us so many fantastic days. From day one he never let us down; brilliant temperament, went on any ground, clean winded and super sound.” So said the horse’s trainer, William Muir.

Robert McCarthy at The Beeches Stud added: “Pyledriver is a fine big horse, with plenty of quality about him, a great colour and a very good walk. He was a terrific racehorse and he’s a complete outcross for the majority of National Hunt mares.”
