It's nice to be lucky an odd time. I've always thought he wanted softer ground but when a melee happens you're lucky to be there,. He ran over two-five at Cheltenham so two-and-a-half is no problem to him. He'll run in similar races, that's what he has been doing, and it's nice to get one like that. I'm sure he'll run in the Coral.ie Hurdle. He ran in the English Ladbroke last year so whether he goes there or not I don't know. He didn't run particularly well that day but he was fourth in the Greatwood and fourth in the Coral Cup so he's been knocking on the door. He deserved to win a race like that even if it is by default.

Ground was a huge factor as he wants it soft and I was wondering this morning whether or not it was worth sending him down here but the forecast was bad. He worked at Punchestown before Cheltenham and worked electric and while I really fancied him in the County Hurdle, he ran a stinker and obvious wasn't quite right. He then ran ok on the first day of Punchestown (Festival) but the ground was too quick and it'll be too quick for the Galway Hurdle and planning that would be pointless as he'd need weather like this.

.He was rated to win, and he was suited by the good gallop and soft ground. He jumps those (Easifix) hurdles better than the other ones,.
