After race at Leopardstown Sun, 4th Feb, 2018 (1st)

he (Edwulf) ran out of oxygen and basically collapsed and fainted and was on the ground for the guts of half an hour. The vets were always confident he'd be fine though, as it was basically exhaustion as the race was over an extreme distance and he made a mistake which knocked the stuffing out of him. All the vets did such a good job with him and everyone at Martinstown did so well too. He came back to us and I can't quite believe it! It's been a long road for him. He pulled up here at Christmas when Derek said he just got tired with him although he gave him a nice feel and just blew up. He thought he'd improve for the race and he was right!. Derek is an unbelievable horseman and gets on great with this fellow. I suppose we'll think about the Gold Cup now but we'll see how he comes out of this. It's not too often you get a horse good enough to run in a Gold Cup so we'll think about Cheltenham if he comes out of this race well. It's been an unbelievable weekend for us and for everyone as Leopardstown have done an unbelievable job with this (weekend) and it can only get bigger and better from here.

After race at Naas Sun, 26th Feb, 2017 (1st)

Puppy gave him a great ride. He jumped very well today and I'm delighted with him. I always thought he was better than a handicapper but his jumping has let him down all year. Hopefully he can keep things together now. He's in the four-miler and the RSA, and there is also the Leinster National back here. We'll see how he comes out of this and make a plan for him. He gets three miles, and he has as good a chance as any horse of getting four but you don't know until you run.
