I fancied him going to Limerick but he jumped terrible down there. He missed the start and was never happy. I was very happy coming here today for the nice ground. The ground was gorgeous out there. Donagh gets a great tune out of him. He keeps things so simple on him and he jumps great for him. We were in the right place at the right time. We had a bit of luck at the last but it was wonderful. He deserved it as he's a good little horse. He may head to Leopardstown, depending on what mark he gets, on the Saturday for the 0-150 two-mile-one handicap chase. Otherwise we'll keep to these novice conditions races if we can. Sean O O'Brien, trainer
