After race at Fairyhouse Tue, 23rd Apr, 2019 (1st)

Barry said he was only getting going. He said he felt great and he thought he would have won anyway. He's a grand fun horse and he'll probably go to Punchestown now. I'll talk to Simon (Munir) and Isaac (Souede) and see what they want to do next year but he's been a great horse and has been unlucky that he hasn't won a big handicap chase somewhere. It's nice for him to get his head in front in a few races.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Navan Sun, 17th Feb, 2019 (1st)

Barry was very happy and he said it might have been better if he had let him stride on a little bit as he said he was breaking his stride and wasn't jumping as well as he can. We've done what we had to do and the plan now is to go straight for the Foxhunters. He's a good horse and he has good solid form.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Thurles Sun, 20th Jan, 2019 (1st)

He'll be entered for the English National but we wanted to qualify him for the Foxhunters at Cheltenham so he'll go straight to Cheltenham now. There's still plenty of improvement in him. Barry said he landed on his hind legs at the second last and it took him a while to get going but he was confident he was going to win and was only getting into top gear again.
