I thought it rode a good race. Mozoltov backed up his last run in Fairyhouse and he's improved again today. He'll (Felix Yonger) go for the Champion Chase I'd imagine — it'd seem the obvious place to go. Ruby said he's still improving, and I'd imagine he'll take up his entry in the Champion Chase. The other option is to go for the race in Japan that Blackstairmountain won before but I'll have to talk with Graham Wylie (owner). It's very expensive to run in but there is big prize-money. We always thought he was better on better ground but he seems to be handling this ground. If he went to Japan that would rule out Cheltenham.

He had the form in the book and had a good run in Clonmel. He finished off last season in style (winning a Grade 1 at Punchestown). I wanted to come with one run in that ground. He's not short of speed. He was very good considering it wasn't his ground. Ruby kept him for one run. He's always had a little bit of class and showed it today. I'd imagine Christmas will come too soon for him and we'll look for a two-mile or two-and-a-half mile race in the New Year. I doubt that he would go to England. We'll try and keep him at home and earn his feed.

that's great for Danny - he went off the America the last two weekends and rode four winners and is riding out of his skin. He's riding full of confidence and sat on him and waited his turn, letting his lungs fill with air and come with one run - it paid off. He has the confidence to ride him like that and when the horse hits a flat spot ,leaves him alone until he comes right. They are a good partnership. they're calling it good to yielding but there's a lot more good in it. That suits him so I thought he might come into it and it didn't surprise me. He's a good horse and we'll probably put him away now.

.I was very happy to see him going on that ground. It was very sticky heavy ground and I didn't think he'd go on it,. The fact that he's won over two-and-a-half on that means we could open up in trip more on better ground.

I'd like to thank Willie for putting me up on him, and it's important to be winning these big races. I knew a good jump (at the last) would help me out, and he stayed on really well.

He could go back up in trip or stay here. The fact that he was asked to go around at that speed today was good experience for him. It's that far away that he could run at Christmas but he's done plenty of racing so he doesn't have to.

That looked impressive to me. He's in the Drinmore, but that may come too quick for him. His jumping was very good at the business end. Ruby said he was idling in front which would lead you to believe there's more in the locker. We'll see how he comes out of this; I might put him by until Christmas as he had a tough race. I don't think he needs to go up in trip. I'd be happy to stay at two miles.

coming back in trip was no problem for Felix Yonger. He is a super mover and I don't think he is a winter horse - I think he'll be better on better ground in the spring. I imagine he'll be good enough to travel if we want to but I'll have a word with Mr Wylie (owner) and see what he wants to do. Ruby (Walsh) always thought he would have no trouble staying but he is well able to compete over two miles on better ground. He shows plenty of gears at home and I think he'll improve again.
