After race at Aintree Fri, 4th Apr, 2025 (1st) 
That wasn’t a very easy day for any of us yesterday. We all feel that and I know he does, too. We have issues we’ve got to sort out with Constitution Hill, but he and I will work that one out. For him to come back and give a horse a ride like that today, that’s a great man. That (Punchestown) would be our intention. He’s back at home in Seven Barrows in his box and he was sound this morning.

I don’t know why, but everybody loves him, I know JP does as well. He dug very deep today didn’t he? And he had to. His jumping was very slick and it was a great ride – you saw him at his best today. All the guys at home do a great job as if you change the routine, you could upset this fella very, very easily. I think we’ve got the hang of him now, we’re learning!. I always wondered whether we should have been thinking about the Ryanair this year and when we stepped Shishkin up to two and a half we soon realised he actually wanted three. I’m not saying that about Jonbon at the moment as Nico thought that trip was perfect for him around here. I think the two and a half is probably ideal, although I’m trying to get Nico to say he’ll stay three. But we can think about those things during the summer. He is a flagship horse. He’s been there a long time now, you can go back to when he was battling El Fabiolo here in a novice hurdle here two years ago – he’s been at the top for a fair old while. He’s just been a star all the way through and we love him, I hope he loves us!
