She was very keen today. Maybe at Cheltenham there would be more pace and she would settle better. At the moment every option is open for her,. She works with our Champion Hurdle horses, we know she stays three miles now, and she can go over hurdles and jump fences. She's the super sub in the Ricci team, and that's where she fits in. She's an extraordinary mare. Shaneshill was running a fantastic race. Patrick was keen to make it and maybe that suits him better as it's the first good race he's run this year. Clondaw Warrior also ran fantastic and gets three miles. Katie had him very settled, and both of them are Stayers Hurdle contenders. We have a great team of horses and people in the yard. Things were slow to get going due to the dry autumn, and it just happens to be Christmas time when they are all coming right.

Everything we do with her, she just does it. She's a very easy ride and an old pet at home. Jackie rides her everyday. She has a lot of natural ability,. She did a spectacular piece of work before Cheltenham and we were left wondering did we supplement the right mare for the Champion Hurdle. She can go any road now. She's good enough to run in the Champion Hurdle races and she's good enough to run over fences at any level. We had just been keeping her in the mares races and climbing the ladder and getting confidence. We didn't intend to run here and yesterday's race was the target. We thought going to Cheltenham she was better than we had thought initially. We thought we'd be coming back here for the three miler but when Annie Power wasn't right we let her take her chance here. My Tent Or Yours and Identity Thief are Champion Hurdle material. If she had got beat we would have been wrong about her. The plan had been to go for the Prix Barka but we'll probably keep her for next season now.

I think she was Rich's (Ricci, owner) top money-earner in Ireland last year and I'll try and keep her that way again this year - we've time enough to go against geldings next year. We're not lacking in the staying division over fences. I'd like to know how good she is, as well. She's a bit like Don Poli, I think, as we haven't ever seen her under pressure. When Ruby (Walsh) gives her a squeeze and she puts in one of those jumps at the third- or fourth-last, then the whole thing is over, she puts it all to bed. When she picks up a gear she's gone. That's against mares so it would be interesting to see what she could do against geldings but I'm not rushing that day yet. She could be a World Hurdle type or one for the Mares' Hurdle but a lot of her ability is in her jumping, too - remember how well she jumps a fence.

She is so laid-back that she never catches your eye at home. She isn't a flash-Harry and keeps her best for the track. There aren't a whole pile of mares' race for her and she'll have to improve. It's all potential with her at the moment so some day we'll probably be disappointed!â€. She did it nicely and will be aimed at a mares' campaign; there's a race for her at Carlisle and there's another one for her in England in February. She's in the Hennessy but that's not my first line of thought and we'll go slowly with her this season.

She gave me a fright at the second last and jumped the first a bit big but otherwise was foot-perfect,. The race was run in a storm and I pitied the jockeys. Rain would have been coming in their faces at the fourth and third last fences and it was a good performance to win and every question she has been asked, she has answered. She's entered in the Mares Hurdle at Cheltenham and will be entered in the novice chases but I'll have a look at the mares' chase programme first and she may stay at home instead and run in a Graded chase at Limerick on St Patrick's Day instead.
