He's as tough as they come and he's staying a lot better now,. Fitness might have made a difference as he ground it out. He has schooled over hurdles and jumps well. He should have no problem with two miles. We'll stick to mile-and--two handicaps and we won't be in a hurry to go back so quick with him (having run last week).

I thought Shane gave him a great ride . the horse used to be quite keen but is after settling really well. I ran him at Leopardstown and he was outpaced a bit but came home well. Tonight it was the same but the gaps came right for him and was genuine and got there. I might step him up in trip now - he looked like he should get further there.

It went very much to plan. We thought Crystal Morning would make it and our plan was to sit second. He stays a mile well so didn't want it turning into a sprint. Johnny sent him on turning in and he outstayed them really. I thought some of the others would be doubtful stayers.
