That's lovely. Just what the doctor ordered,. His jumping has improved from last year - although there wasn't a lot wrong with it. He was very quick over his last three fences today. That's the first box ticked and the next question is what are the other boxes. There are a lot of races for him and I don't want to commit right now. The ultimate aim is the Queen Mother and we'll take it day-by-day. He looks as good as ever. I'll look at something in late November, early December. There's the Tingle Creek and Durkan Chase. Then we'll look at the Dial-A-Bet Chase at Leopardstown over Christmas. I don't want to abuse him and he'll get a nice break then before Cheltenham. He's an exciting prospect and I'm blessed to have him. Edward P Harty, trainer
