I’m delighted with that performance giving away weight. He made it look simple!. He’s able to get into his comfort zone over a longer trip and a little bit of juice (in the ground) is probably no harm. He wouldn’t want deep winter ground but that’s great. I’m sure the handicapper is going to reassess him after today and we might have to look outside these condition races. I wouldn’t completely rule out going back over fences but for the moment we’ll stay at what we’re at.

I'm not sure where we go after that, but he could potentially go to Cheltenham in November but we'll see how he comes out of that. He could go up to three miles but could also go back in trip as well. You'd have to stick to the novice route for the moment the way he is going. He had a bit of leg trouble before I got him and the owners were very patient with him, thankfully.

the way she won her bumper she’s a proper mare but she’s very difficult. She pulled very hard today. Johnny gave her a brilliant ride. She missed a few hurdles and that helped as it got her to back off a bit. If you could keep a lid on her she is potentially a very nice mare. Even at home she’s hard work. Joey Dunne rides her every day and Ian Donoghue, two big strong lads. She actually has to be ridden out on her own. She has some black type already in a bumper, so we could look for more over hurdles.

He was supposed to win on ratings and it was a good performance. I don’t know if he really enjoyed that ground but he got away with it. When he jumps a fence he might improve again, and there is a good chance he could go chasing this season.

After he won the last day I rang Sandy Shaw (handicapper) to tell him he had been very hard on him and had it out with him but have to apologise now. I didn't think he was that good so I'm obviously delighted,. I can't wait until he jumps a fence, he'll be a lovely horse over fences and please god he stays right and he'll go chasing shortly. He doesn't want knee-deep ground and doesn't want it too soft but will race away for the winter.

We gave him a break and freshened him up. . He might jump a fence at some stage in time too. Yeah he did (relish that ground) and might benefit from going further too.

That was grand. The last day here over two miles was just too sharp for him. This looked the ideal step-up for him. I thought he wasn't too badly handicapped but that wasn't a bad race today. He won well in the end and he'll jump a fence in time. He had some leg trouble before I got him so he might need an ease in the ground. I don't know if he'll stay going for the summer, we'll wait and see.
