He needed that. It was a nice performance, he jumped economically and Paul was happy that he’d improve from that. We’ll look for a race after Christmas maybe the one at Limerick (Grade 1 Faugheen Novice Chase). Kaid D’Authie ran well and I’d say a longer trip. He jumps well, gallops, and covers a lot of ground. He just needed the run as well.

It was a nice performance. I loved the way he jumped, he’ll have no trouble going over fences,. I love the way he stayed on. It looked like the race was over after he had taken on Sir Gerhard and then he had to find again to take on Break My Soul. It’s the sign of a real good horse that he’s able to pick up a second time, which he did. I’m probably looking at Liverpool, more so than Cheltenham with him, with the timing of the race. The two and a half miles at Liverpool in the Aintree Hurdle would be a big possibility. That’s what I’m looking at at the moment. I think he’d love to step up in trip. I’d have no problem going three miles, but two and a half miles in Aintree might be more his thing at this point in his career. We’ll see what he does in his next two runs, but the way he jumped there, he looks like he has real potential as a novice chaser.
