That's him, he is a big old-fashioned slow horse. I don't know if I did the right thing by not putting him in the Welsh National. But we said we'd love to have him for Leopardstown at Christmas. I think he'll improve a bit after today. He is only a second season novice. Hopefully they'll go a gallop in the Paddy Power. They just walked there today and he just got caught a bit flat-footed. Even without a stick he stayed on really well from the last. I told him not to win too far!. It's a pity his owner, Mick Bailey couldn't be here today. He had other commitments, he would have been here on Sunday.

He's a proper old fashioned chaser. That was a great pick me up after losing Drumconvis earlier in the afternoon. It's been terrible to lose such two good horses in such a short space of time Drumconvis and Clarified. I'm delighted that Lochan Lacha won for Michael Bailey at his local track as he has been a very good supporter of mine since I started training.

He ran well the last day so it was nice to see him win here today. We will probably go handicap chasing with him now over 3 or 4 miles.
