After race at Wexford Fri, 5th Jul, 2019 (1st)

He probably wasn’t as good as he was in Clonmel, and Barry thought he didn’t travel and jump as well. He’s been in quite a while and only had a short break around Christmas so we might back off him now. There is not many staying novice chases anyhow so we might back off him until October. There is a nice staying novice in Cheltenham then so we might look at that.
