We were humming and hawing whether to run, as we wanted him to defend his Cambridgeshire title next weekend, . He won it last year, but would have to lump top weight now and there are smart three-year-olds coming up through the ranks, so we came here instead. He is a proper horse, won very well in Naas previously and at Royal Ascot, he was drawn on the wrong side. He was a very sick horse in the spring when we had him lined up for the Lincoln, and we are only getting to know him now. He is a fine big strapping horse who wouldn't look out of place in a Champion Chase, and he has thrived recently. It has been a quiet enough turf campaign for me, but he is putting me on the map. To get a stakes winner in my second season is special and without my assistant Stephen Mooney, I wouldn't have had the take-off I've had. We picked out Jack Kearney early on and he has delivered on many occasions for us, so I'm delighted for him. It's his first stakes winner too.
