The last day in Naas he pulled very hard and today we put the hood on him and he settled well. He jumps great and loves the heavy ground. Jamie got a great education with the late William Codd. Jack Hendrick and himself came up to work for us and they are both after having their first winners on the track. They have plenty of point-to-point experience and are two chaps that are going in the right direction. I was nearly going to Cheltenham with this horse. He was in great form coming here after a good run in Naas and I thought he'd improved from it. He's owned by Roger Brookhouse and could go to Aintree. If not he'll go to Punchestown.
