After race at Aintree Fri, 9th Apr, 2021 (1st) 
I’m absolutely thrilled — we’re celebrating here at home!. After Cheltenham we picked out this race and I said to the owners we were just hoping he’d go over and run a big race. To come out and win is absolutely unbelievable. We went into the race thinking we were riding him to be placed, just because he’s that type of horse that follows along, so to go and win has given us all a massive buzz. I don’t think he’ll go to Punchestown, to be honest. I’ll have a chat with the owners, but he’s not in any of the graded races there. The plan was to go to Aintree and if he ran well and went up a couple of pounds, he’d be guaranteed to get into the Galway Hurdle. We’ll see what way things are now and see what the handicapper does — we might be out of handicaps now, I suppose. The Galway Hurdle is worth a lot of money, but I’d take a Grade One over that any day.
