It is nice to have him back and to see him win again. I don't have any plans for him. I'm not sure if he was a bit lucky to win the way things worked out but things certainly fell nicely from him today.

If he comes out of this okay he'll go for the big two miler (the Grade 1 Bord na Mona With Nature Novice Steeplechase on St Stephen's Day) at Leopardstown. I was disappointed that he got beaten at Limerick (by Quel Esprit) but I'd say that'll turn out to be as good a beginners chase as you'll see all season. I decided to put the cheek-pieces on him today because when he hit the front two out at Limerick he started to look around him. I hope he'll be an Arkle horse.

I'm pleasantly surprised. I don't know where he'll go. I'll try to find another suitable race for him somewhere; I'm just pleased he did it as nicely as he did.
