We’ve done a lot of schooling with him and he’s just so unnatural jumping and Paul said he made a mess of the third-last, but he jumped the last two well when we wanted. We know he has an engine and it’s just about getting him from A to B, and going that bit slower over a longer trip has made the difference – he might jump his fences better than hurdles next year and we might go novice chasing with him. Most of our Champion Bumper winners have been stayers and on his pedigree and class it was worth worth trying the longer race. It probably took me by surprise how well he has come through the field and seeing him sat last there, I was wondering could he come from that far back? But Paul gave him a very confident ride and the frame of mind he is in at the moment, he just makes things happen. Once he got over the third-last I felt confident and definitely after the second-last I felt it was his to lose, but then again that last flight of hurdles, with probably one of the worst jumpers in racing, I guess there was always something to worry about. I thought for half a second when he landed over the last he might have thrown it away, but he did enough up the hill anyway.

Permission was given for Ballybow (IRE) and The Big Westerner (IRE) to wear a red hood to post.
An enquiry was held to consider interference approaching the second last hurdle involving, Wingmen (IRE), unplaced, ridden by Jack Kennedy; The Big Westerner (IRE), placed second, ridden by Darragh O’Keefe and Wendigo (FR), placed fifth, ridden by Gavin Sheehan.
The interference was found to be accidental as in a tightly bunched field racing down to the second last, Wingmen (IRE) made a mistake jumping the hurdle and moving quickly left-handed on landing, taking The Big Westerner (IRE), who had landed just inside his quarters off its intended line, resulting in the mare becoming awkwardly placed between Wingmen (RE) and the inside running rail, which caused O’Keefe to check and switch right-handed off heels.
As a result of O'Keefe's evasive actions, Wendigo (FR) who was racing in behind clipped the heels of The Big Westerner (IRE), causing the gelding to stumble, severely unbalancing the rider in the process.
Following the race, Sean Bowen reported that Intense Approach (GB), which was pulled up, stopped quickly.
