That was a good performance and he did it very well. Jack said he gave him a bit of light at the third last and he just took off on him. It was nice to see he could do that (over two and a half miles) so we have loads of options. I'd say he will be (better on better ground). I just said to Davy Condon at the start that the one worry I had was that it was his first time on that real, real heavy ground. Most good horses win on every ground and he looks a real nice one. We are lucky to have him. He jumped the last like he jumped a fence but after running in point-to-points you expect that. I don't know if we'll go for Christmas, we might wait for the (Lawlors Hotel) race in Naas (2m4f). He's obviously a horse for next year, whatever he does will be a bonus this year. I thought that was a bit special what he did there, it was class. Gordon Elliott, trainer
