The Nightingale doesn't mind going right or left handed as long as the ground is soft. He jumped better than he did at Aintree last time and we worked on that at home. It's brilliant to come over here and win two good races like that.

Having had the fall in the Gold Cup it was a worry but he jumped great today. He was very unlucky in the Gold Cup as he made a mistake and paid for it heavily. We done a lot of work on his jumping at home. We'll know at the end of the week how much this race has taken out of him and we'll decide on a Hennessy bid then. We've left plenty to work on and don't forget he beat two decent horses there today. If he doesn't go for the Hennessy he'll go straight for the King George. Ruby was chuffed to bits with him and hopefully we'll be back here next year.

Noland had a breathing operation in July and he came back to work a month later so we thought he wasn't as fit as Kauto Star and that he might need the run. That win will have given the horse great confidence. We will go for The Peterborough Chase at Huntington next with him and long term plan would be for the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham in March.
