It’s a great thrill to have one to jump as well that and it never really looked a problem, he was gaining ground at every fence,. Everything seemed to be going really well and it’s lovely to be able to watch something like that. You would never be confident in a Grade 1 especially with the lads in behind you. You never want to build your confidence up too much but I was happy when he jumped the last alright. There was only a half and a half between the three of them the last day and it’s only one good jump really. It might have been the trip. That trip seems to suit him and that’ll be the way we go I’d imagine. I’ll talk to Eddie and Mike and see what they say. He said the ground wasn’t as bad on that track and he loved it. I was slightly worried because he worked on very soft ground at home last week and I thought he wasn’t as effective on it. It was the perfect ride. He jumped great for him and did everything right. He jumped that well he got the others in trouble. I’d say Cheltenham ground will suit him alright - the usual Cheltenham ground. I would never think that he would want quick ground. He’s a beautiful moving horse.

That was good. Sean said he just ran a bit free down the hill where he made the mistake. Some people say a fall is good for a horse. I've never agreed with that but a mistake can crown them, and he jumped well after that today. He had a stress fracture of his stifle last season, and hopefully he comes home okay. He could go for the Drinmore, and I wouldn't mind staying over two and a half miles for the moment, and he could go up to three miles at Christmas. Gigginstown have a lot of horses to consider, and we will have to see what plans are made. I would say the further he goes the better he is, and fences are a big help to him as he's so athletic. He was still a bit keen today but fences are helping him to settle.
