he had a fall the last day on his first run back but he was very good today and is a relaxed type of horse. He progressed well last year and always just does enough. I don't look beyond today but I suppose something like the Leopardstown Chase could suit now.

That was great, I'm delighted. He just does enough and that was a step up today. He's a way better chaser than a hurdler anyway. He'll have no bother going up in trip and should get distance anyway. We'll see what Frank (Berry) says now and look for something similar to that. Hopefully he keeps progressing. I'd say he's a winter horse. He's a very laid back horse, he just goes around and does enough. When Luke got after him he pulled out a little bit more but still my heart was in my mouth a bit at the last when he met it wrong.

that was great. He's an idle type of a lad and he's never going to be too flash. He jumped better today in testing conditions so we're happy. Luke said he thought he was always happy enough in the ground. We'll talk to Frank (Berry, J.P. McManus' racing manager) but I suppose he'll go for something similar, and stay in novice company. He's a better chaser than a hurdler. He's a big horse and I'd say he grew into himself too.

It was lovely to win with him, it was a weak contest but it was grand to win it,. It took him the whole straight too. He was very novicey and I was surprised by that but I suppose they were going a gallop. He's versatile enough trip wise, he'd want to improve a little bit too. He didn't win over hurdles or anything so it's great to get the win.
