Cheltenham Tips
He was off for a year and did nothing but walking and trotting. It was a long road back and Danny Hand rides him out every day. I feel sorry for Keith Donoghue who would have ridden him but injured his eye recently. With Un De Sceaux in the race I knew they would go a good gallop and that suits him. I thought we might be held going to the last but I saw the other horse getting tired and I knew our fella was as fit as he was for a long time. He's all heart. I only took out the licence in the summer and that's my first winner. I've three riding out at the moment. He could run next at Punchestown at the end of January but he's very ground dependant. It will have to be soft wherever he runs.
