After race at Thurles Sat, 24th Mar, 2018 (1st)

He hated that ground but the conditions of the race suited him and that's why I ran him. He was at the pin of his collar to win on that ground and the trip wouldn't be ideal either,. Davy pulled him up wisely the last day and he can now go to Punchestown for whatever race we can find.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Galway Tue, 11th Oct, 2016 (1st)

I thought he was very good and he jumped class. He will come on a lot for the run as he is not fit,. We were keen enough to get him out before Davy's suspension starts. I'd imagine he might have one more racecourse school before going straight for the Drinmore. I don't think he is real heavy ground horse so he might just miss that middle part of the season, and come back in the spring for the festivals. He is a real good moving horse and jumps really good.

Gordon Elliott

After race at Punchestown Sat, 9th Jan, 2016 (1st)

He's a grand horse, and I think better ground will suit him better. That could be him until Cheltenham. Noble Endeavor won this last year, and the Martin Pipe race is the plan I have in mind for this horse,. We'll have to keep Jack for that (Martin Pipe race at Cheltenham).
