After race at Aintree Fri, 7th Apr, 2017 (1st)

He deserved that as he was brought down early at Cheltenham when I couldn't split him and Thomas Campbell. It was the same this time as they've finished first and fourth. It's great for Matt (Morgan, owner) after what happened at Cheltenham. Some might see what happened there as a blessing but it was annoying at the time, I can tell you.
