They looked like they went a proper gallop. Sean saying going down the back he let yer man slip on because they had gone fast enough. He just gave him a little flick, he wasn't hard on him, he was happy going to the last that he hadn't really gone for him. When Paul (Townend, on Bronn) came to him he went away from him. Sean thinks he's a proper one and I hope he's right. He has changed hands and that's his first run for them, it was sort of a pressure day so thankfully he won. We'll see about Fairyhouse and Punchestown with him. He was in the Albert Bartlett but off his ratings he had no real entitlement to go to that. I think he's a horse that could improve, he's a very slim sort of horse and is just strengthened a bit more and he's only five-years-old. He'll probably get one more run and that'll be it. I'd say he'll handle better ground as he's a very good mover. I was worried about the ground today, he had won on soft but this was proper tacky winter ground and he went through it well. I love the way he went through the line, it was the same in Fairyhouse. The two horses he beat there have won since. I always love a horse that finishes well and he finishes out through the line well, he has a good attitude. Paul Nolan, trainer
