Here we steadied up from the fourth last up along, and it turned into a bit of a sprint to the last. We always knew our one wasn't short of pace but it was a good performance and it's onwards and upwards. She jumped very slick and accurate. She was close to the last hurdle but she was very fast at it. Fingers crossed she'll come out of the race and she can start her prep for Cheltenham again next week. The conditions didn't suit us and we didn't have a run all season so I didn't really know what to expect. The fact that Ruby didn't even have to pick up his stick means she has improved a fair bit from last year. I'm hoping that will bring her along nicely. The mares' race is what I have been aiming for. She has run a stone better than I thought she would. W P Mullins, trainer
