It is great to get a result like that, it's my first 1-2 and I've rarely ran two in a race. I thought both would run well and didn't think there was much between them - they both ran well on their last run. I didn't mind which of them won!. They are two nice, progressive horses for the summer. Both will go handicap hurdling and Monza Man is a real chaser in the making and had a brother Staker Wallace who was placed in Cheltenham twice. You have good and bad weeks with homebreds and you need to keep selling. When the horses are out of form it is a struggle but when they're on a good run, there is always interest in horses. Metamorphius runs in the Fred Winter Hurdle for Paul Nolan tomorrow having won a maiden hurdle for us. Timothy Doyle, trainer
