He's a very fit horse and he did it well. He's been running pretty consistent over fences. We'll play it by ear now and see where we'll go . we have no definite plans. He's in two of the handicaps at Cheltenham but I thought he had too much weight and I'd say he won't run. He battled away there today and he loves to get things his own way. He jumped very well. I don't know whether he'd be good enough for the likes of the Irish National, we'll see. D K Weld, trainer
