Cheltenham Tips

He won quite well and I'm happy. We think he's nice but I don't know where we will go now. It's very difficult with a four-year-old in their second season. I wanted to see what would happen today and although he might not be able to ride again I'll wait and see what the jockey says. I thought he would have to be good today to win as although he was well fit enough to run there is loads of improvement in him and he gave a right good blow. Ruby was impressed with his jumping and down the line I see him as a Grade 1 chaser hopefully as he's just shy of 17 hands.
