We knew with a bit of ease in the ground and the cheekpieces today it was going to be a different story,. We said we were going to make plenty of use of him today and make them work. Thankfully it worked out great. We’ll go to the Triumph Hurdle now, that’s the plan. Cheltenham will suit him. He has actually proved he can go on a bit nicer ground and we know he stays - you have to stay to win a Triumph Hurdle. The cheekpieces on him made a big difference. You can see there today he was travelling the whole way whereas the last couple of runs he was behind the bridle.

in fairness to Keith (Donoghue) he has been with me from the start and we've had a few ups and downs. He is riding well and working hard. I think he is having his best season from when he was a 7lb claimer. We decided 11 stone is as light as he is going to do because he's a big fellow and let him do 2lbs overweight today because that's the confidence we have in him.
