our intention was to jump out smarter but missed that so, which was a bit of a cock-up. Paul is a good hard-worker though, he is with us a year so deserves to get a winner. It was a hotter race than he won in the Junction (Tipperary) but he is a good jumper and is a well-bred horse. Hopefully he has a nice future over fences.
