I don't know when my last winner was! He did it well. I thought when he got sandwiched up a bit turning in, and Glenwood Forever got first run on us, that we were in trouble. I don't know if he had stood up whether we would have got to him or not. He does like something to chase though. I was afraid when Glenwood Forever fell that we were in front too soon as he does pull himself up a bit in front. Thankfully the loose horse helped us out a bit and in fairness to Donie he gave him a great ride and settled him lovely. He does run well fresh and won first time out last year in Kilbeggan. You're always a little bit afraid after a layoff coming back that you have them fit enough but thankfully he was.

He has to be dropped in and things didn't work out at Roscommon when he raced with the pace and did too much. Derek played away with him and said he's a horse that if you fight him, he'll fight you. The hood (wore it before) helped keep the lid on him today and he needs that trip. He jumps fences like a buck and will make a nice good ground chaser next year. We'll have a look at the handicap hurdle at Galway next Sunday.

It's good to get a winner at last. He's a nice little horse and probably appreciated the bit better ground. Mark said he was a difficult ride as he grabbed a hold early but dropped it mid-way. He came between horses down the back and started to come back into it. He needed every bit of Mark and he had to get stuck into him. He wants a trip and will jump a fence in time. He wants goodish ground and as long as it doesn't get dangerously quick he'll keep going.
