I didn't like him in Navan, he was a bit flat. We brought him back nice and fresh for this which I thought might have been a bit too good a race for him but there seemed to be no real excuses. He went a nice consistent gallop on terrible ground and he'll go now for the Albert Bartlett Novice Hurdle at Cheltenham all being well.

I am delighted with that and the race worked out very well for him. He needed a good pace and that was a very good performance. We won't rush with him now but he'll go for those long distance novice hurdles.

He won his bumper on testing ground last Christmas but didn't jump great on the better ground earlier in the year. We were going to run him over a longer trip later this week but decided it was best to start him over 2 miles on his first run back so it wouldn't be too hard on him. I hope he'll improve from that and he should make a nice chaser. He jumps fences better than he does hurdles and he's for sale.
