Tiger Roll showed off his well-being when finishing third in an event at the Dublin Horse Show on Saturday - but was beaten by a former stablemate.
The two-time Grand National winner was the star attraction at the RDS for the Irish Thoroughbred Marketing Racehorse to Riding Horse Championship.
Since retiring from the track Tiger Roll has been enjoying life at Eddie O'Leary's Lynn Lodge Stud in Westmeath.

His riding partner on Saturday was rising eventing star Ted O'Leary, Eddie's son and the nephew of Ryanair supremo Michael O'Leary.
And the pair delighted the crowd at the RDS and the judges on the day: former jump jockey Nina Carberry and Gold Cup-winning trainer Henrietta Knight.
But Tiger Roll was beaten in the competition by his former stablemate at Gordon Elliott's yard, General Principle.
General Principle, who won the 2018 Irish Grand National, was ridden to victory by Seainin Mahon.
In fourth place was Douvan, formerly trained by Willie Mullins, and a two-time Cheltenham Festival winner before a string of injuries halted his career.
Horses competing in the championship are asked to demonstrate "quality, substance, bone, correct conformation, presence and true action. The class may include racehorses of hack, riding horse or hunter types with the best of type being judged the winner."
