When he won the last day, I said to you he mightn't stay too long over hurdles but after that we'll stay over hurdles and will probably come back here on November 5th now and there's also a Graded race in December. If he's ok, that'll be the plan. We bought him off Enda (Bolger) after he won his point-to-point. Last year, when he ran in a bumper Fairyhouse, I've a book at home when I write in the winners as they come and it's always a great feeling to put in another winner, but I nearly wrote him in before I went to the races! . I was talking to Gary (O'Brien, presenter) on Attheraces before the race and was never as confident of a horse winning in my life and he finished fourth and I couldn't believe it! . But that can happen in racing and it wasn't the first time and won't be the last time it'll happen and he had a small little wind op after that. Noel Meade, trainer
