It is a bit of a relief as in beginners' chases you never know what will happen. He was very good, though, and those ex point-to-pointers are well schooled. We brought him to the Curragh a few weeks ago and he was really really good. He would like a little nicer ground than that and got tired in the end, but he didn't get as tired as the others. . Where I'd love to be is in Leopardstown over Christmas for the Grade 1 novice over three miles. We'll enter him for the Drinmore in between, but might instead run in the Grade 2 Florida Pearl (2m6f, Punchestown) instead. Sam's dad Warren had him as a young horse and Sam is sponsored by Philip Polly, who also sponsors Danny McMenamin in Scotland. It's Sam's first winner back from injury and he is blowing as hard as the horse!
