I thought on the way down from Ballyhack we were in a bit of trouble. He does hit a flat spot throughout his races and I thought 'this is it - but I hope he finds something.' Then he got a good jump at the next one,. We stuck him in a good handicap hurdle at Leopardstown last year, put Chris on to claim a few pounds off, and he delivered there in the Pertemps. He's always knocking on the door. He could do with having another gear like a lot of the horses!. We don't know where we go from here. He has an entry in the Paddy Power at Christmas. We'll take it one day at a time. It would be in the back of our heads to come back here at Easter. The trip is ideal for him. Ground-wise he is very versatile but he loves that ground there. I said to Chris going out this is his perfect ground and if he can't win on this ground today he'll never win.

He's a dour stayer. That's what he is. I ran him in the Porterstown and was thinking 'will he get the trip'. I thought he should and he got it very well I thought. Had they raced a bit stronger then I think he might have collected. They only went a hack and he tanked along. He had a great weight today and got a great ride from Chris. Staying won it for him. We thought all along he could win a half decent race and he's been knocking on the door. I'll probably go back chasing with him. I had picked out the Grand National trial at Punchestown at the end of January. He's not a good traveller so for that reason we'll avoid going over the water. He's probably not high enough to get into Irish National but I see him going for it some day.

He'd a fall over fences at Fairyhouse last month and that's a nice confidence booster. If he gets into it he could come back here next month for the good novice handicap chase.
