Successful trainer, Colm Murphy said: "They went no gallop and he (Matt) did the right thing going on in front. He jumped better there.

William Hill go 16/1 (from 20s) for the Supreme Novices' Hurdle whilst Cashmans are unchanged at 12/1 for the same event. Powers also didn't change their quote of 14s.
