After race at Aintree Sat, 14th Apr, 2018 (1st)

I'm delighted. You dream, but I wasn't expecting that. You have to stay, but we just didn't know if he would or not. It was Sean's plan as he said he would love to go three miles. We said we would leave it to him how he wanted to ride him and fair play to Sean. We came here for the two-and-a-half (Aintree Hurdle) last year and we rode him positively and he was disappointing on the day. The way he ran in the Champion Hurdle, he stopped at halfway and ran on really well again at the end. We hoped the big step up would suit and it's fantastic. We will enjoy today, but we've always felt he is a good horse as he won the Fighting Fifth. He lost his form over fences but it is great to have him back and we will enjoy today. We've got him in the Stayers' Hurdle at Punchestown but we will see about that.

Henry De Bromhead

After race at Punchestown Sat, 22nd Oct, 2016 (1st)

He did it as well as you could have asked. He jumped well and David gave him a super ride. He was quick when he got in short and has loads of scope as well. They went a good lick. That was what I was hoping for and couldn't ask for any more. I will have to speak to Michael and Eddie (O'Leary) but he has a number of options. I would normally favour coming back here for the Craddockstown but there are also races at Cheltenham and Navan. He will stick to that trip for the moment but I don't see why he couldn't go up in trip in the future.

Henry De Bromhead

After race at Down Royal Fri, 30th Oct, 2015 (1st)

He showed some really nice form last year but possibly everything happened a bit quickly for him as he won his bumper and maiden hurdle first-time out both times.

Henry De Bromhead

After race at Leopardstown Sun, 28th Dec, 2014 (1st)

I'm delighted. He jumped well. Bryan thought maybe a faster pace would suit him and we might drop him back and try the Deloitte here in February. We'll see how he goes after that. He was impressive in his bumper and kept the dream alive here today. He's a really nice young horse to have. The ground was pretty nice when he won his bumper and I'd say he pretty adaptable. Bryan said he didn't really want him winging the second last and getting there too soon so when he fluffed it he got a nice lead into the straight.
