That was great, it’s been a good week’s work with him. I had him in this, I wasn’t really considering coming but thought I’d throw him in just in case he was placed at Down Royal the other day. He showed a bit of boot there today. He’s better on softer ground. Two or two-and-a-half miles doesn’t seem to bother him.

all his form is on soft ground so at 9.50am on Sunday I was going to pull him out but thought it didn't look a wonderful contest so we took our chances. He had only one bit of form on better ground but it is job done I suppose. He is what he is but there might be another day in him somewhere: he's in Fairyhouse on Saturday and we'll see how he is.

There was a little question mark if he would get the two-and-a-half today so I had that in the back of my mind. I would rather be going a stride slower than a stride quicker on that ground as well. I would maybe have preferred if a horse came with me to bring me to the leader but I had to go when I did. He got in tight to the last and was doing the bare minimum in front so hopefully there is another bit of improvement in him. He did it well. Danny gave him a good ride and everything was straightforward, he seemed to improve from the last day. We thought he had. They get caught eventually (by the handicapper) but he's definitely improving and he jumps a fence well. The horses were sick all last year, we just tried to change things around a bit and everything seems healthy now. When they healthy you can make a plan but when they aren't you can't do anything.
