he is obviously held in high regard and even on his novice hurdle form was running in Grade 1s. Today looked an ideal race to get his head back in front but he is obviously a staying chaser. I presume all roads lead back to Aintree and this is a nice stepping stone in the right direction. It was a nice peformance considering it was only 2m4f and we hacked around. He is very slick to jump; he is a proper horse and all those horses have that — they know what they are doing. it is great to get another winner for Martin (Brassil) and the Mulryans and great for Paddy Aspell to lead me up on a winner. It is my first winner for the Mulryans, they are the big owners in Martin's yard so it is nice to be involved. J.J. (Slevin) is their new retained rider but on days like this I don't mind being first reserve. Martin Brassil, trainer

Evidence was heard from the trainer's representative Daivid Brassil who sated that the distance and today's ground suited him more than his pervious run at Punchestown on the 20/11/2022. Having considered the evidence the Raceday Stewards noted the content of the report.
