It's great to see him back although he did his best to capsize at the last. Barry said he was very long but he quickened up well after it. I'm delighted with him and it's great to win another race with him. The race was almost written with him in mind. He may go to Aintree or may go to Punchestown. It will depend on the ground. He will go to one of those two.

That was fantastic and great to come here early in the year and see how he was. He just seems to have got back his old spark. He never really got it back last year, I don't know why, but he has had a good summer and seems well in himself. He did it hands and heels there and he surprised me as I thought he'd blow up. He has class and class won it for him at the end of the day. I have absolutely no plan - I have no idea and I'll enjoy today. He's a great horse and to get him back like that is amazing. . Things never went right last year and in a way I was under pressure too and he was under pressure to get back, having missed a whole year. People probably thought 'that's it, retire him' after his last run last year but we didn't and he's a smashing horse and a pleasure to have around the place.

Barry said he took a blow going down the back and just blew up a bit after the second last. He jumped super and you couldn’t ask for anymore. We had him kind of ready at Christmas and then he had a setback. Every time you go you are worried that you haven’t done enough or too much or he hasn’t got his spark still. He was very settled there today and was really, really good. I’ll have to talk with Frank (Berry) and JP to see where we go next. Most likely he will need another run so he could go for the Red Mills. I think he gets in there with no penalties. I think on soft ground we would be better going two miles and not bottoming him out. He could still do a job over two miles but we know he stays three, so we have options. As long as he’s sound in the morning, that’s the main thing.

He pulled and tugged Mark the whole way but I've never seen him jump so well as he did today. He was making up ground at every hurdle and he did see out the three miles really well. He's an amazing horse for me to have. He's basically very straight-forward. He does like the spring with a bit of nice ground and the sun on his back. He's a better horse now than in the winter. Mark gave him an absolutely terrific ride and I'm really pleased for him. Punchestown is the local racecourse and I love having winners here. We re-routed him here as he's been beaten by Faugheen, Hurricane Fly and Arctic Fire so we decided to try something new. All the family stayed really well. At Cheltenham things didn't go right for him. It was run at a slow pace, Ruby dictated and he was probably a bit keen. AP said that if he'd rode him for second he would have been second but he was trying to win the race and it didn't work out. Up until the last two runs it would have been a disappointing season but he's won two Grade 1's now so we can't say it's too bad. Lets see what next season brings, it's a long way off. None of the family really jumped fences very well so I think we'll keep him over hurdles for the moment.

It's been absolutely fantastic . unbelievable. To have three yesterday and three again today is beyond my wildest dreams. I think Johnny (her recently deceased husband) is doing a lot of the pushing. It's very hard to come here after winning at Cheltenham. If he was beat here people would say he won a soft Champion Hurdle but he's come here and won again so it's fantastic. He was very good after Cheltenham and he had a very, very good preparation for this. He was good coming into the race and everything went according to plan. I let him (Tony McCoy) do what he wanted. He was the man in the saddle and he's the best in the world. I'm not sure I watched much of the race as my eyes were closed most of the time. Especially today the hood helped with the atmosphere and a lot of people cheering. He's only six . he's a young horse and I'd say he'll stay hurdling for the moment.

Robbie (Power) didn't do anything wrong on him (when 3rd in the Supreme Novices'). On the day he probably wasn't 100 percent. I'd say he was more impressive at Christmas (at Leopardstown) when he won, than he was for me in the Royal Bond. He had two great wins before that at Naas on atrocious ground which he doesn't really want, and he would have been short of fitness, but he definitely has the engine. He was unbelievable . he did it great. Even though they went a serious gallop I thought passing the stands that he wasn't settling. He made a mistake then at the second and settled after that. I was delighted with the gallop they went. I don't know what the time was but they went a serious gallop and it suited him. Maybe the travelling or the hill did for him at Cheltenham. I don't know. He jumped well there, except for the last two. Today, except for the second, he was brilliant. He just accelerated past them. I thought he was 100 percent going to Cheltenham. Maybe he didn't like the cold . the sun shone today which helped. He's only done one piece of work since Cheltenham . he's done very little. He had a jump yesterday morning . his first since Cheltenham. I'd imagine he'll stay over two miles and over hurdles . he's only a five-year-old (as short as 6/1 now for the Champion Hurdle). I haven't spoken to J P - I'll go with the flow . he's a wonderful horse to train. The mare (the dam) is an amazing mare. She's bred multiple Grade 1 winners.

I'm absolutely thrilled, it all went to plan. Barry said that's what he was going to do . sit in behind the others. When he gave him a squeeze three out he knew he had a lot of horse. He clattered the first and it just frightened him a bit and he jumped a bit big as far as Ballyhack. He was straight and true where it mattered and when they were going a bit quicker he concentrated more. The Supreme Novices' is the long term target as he's a two-miler. We'll have to discuss plans with the owner but he'll have at least one more run before Cheltenham. He could easily run at Christmas (if the ground is good) and after that I don't know. He's only four and he's bound to improve a bit for more experience. I was a little bit worried about going right-handed for the first time as all his runs have been left-handed. When I saw him jumping left early on I thought that's what we had discussed yesterday. He's always wanted better ground. The whole family want it on top and I'd imagine he'll be better on better ground too.

Jezki was good . I was worried about the ground as it was heavy but he coped with it well and did it well. His jumping was more professional today and he needed that run. It is hard to go to the Royal Bond Hurdle with just one hurdle run but that is his next port of call. I know he was getting loads of weight off Hisaabaat but he still had to do it.

That was plan A to win his maiden hurdle. I don't know where the next stage will be. We are delighted the way he handled the heavy ground. It wasn't ideal, but he got away with it. He would definitely appreciate better ground. Barry said he was a bit spooky at the last and if he jumped it better he would have won easier.

I'm delighted with both horses. I didn't really want to run them against each other but I had no real option. Jezki is a possible for Cheltenham now as I don't think he did any more than a gallop there. He learned a bit more and I think a faster pace will suit him better. I'm also delighted with The Big Easy - Patrick said when they quickened the second time, he was just a bit slow to get into gear.
Mrs John Harrington

He got into all sorts of trouble down the back but battled great. He's a full brother to Jenari and a half-brother to Jetson. We always thought he was a bit better than Jenari at home but don't ask me where we go next. We'll sit down and have a talk about it.
