It wasn't the plan to make it. The last day he looked home and hosed, he's a quirky fella,. He's very difficult, he's not for young lads to ride out or anything. Keith did a great job with him. He ran away the last day but I'd say the ground was a lot heavier in Fairyhouse. I'm delighted with the way he battled there, it's great. We'll try him again and he'll go chasing next year, he's a big horse. The owner (Brian Pierce) isn't here, he's a good supporter of ours.

He’s quirky but talented and switching back to two miles seemed to help. That trip will probably suit him for now. He’s free and wants to get on with things. He was a very difficult young horse and very hard to break or do anything with. It’s taken him a long time to learn about racing. He’s not the easiest to ride.

It took him a long time to settle down and learn about racing. He was a bit of a lunatic but lately he’s started to settle into it, and he was very good there bar the third last. He stepped into the ditch but hopefully he’ll learn from it.

That was great. He jumped well, bar one, and he did it very well. He just took a long time to get the hang of it, but we're delighted with him. He's a bit mad and he's not an easy ride. Jordan has ridden him before and had two falls off him over hurdles. It's not that he doesn't jump, but he just takes his eye off it. He settled well today, they went very fast, and he came home well. I was surprised, he was very good. I don't know where we go from here, he's probably going to get a fair hike for that as he won far enough. He looks an exciting enough horse on that.
