He stays so well and is so genuine. It was a big ask coming up here but thankfully he’s pulled it out. I’ve played the race over in my head a hundred times in the last two weeks. I was toying with the idea of dropping him in last this morning, but I said I’d stick with the plan as when he gets to the front, he dangles his ear and waits. For me this is like a Junior C player being allowed to play in an All-Ireland. I’d love to have played in an All-Ireland Final, but I won’t get on the team. In this scenario I’m able to do it. Going to the start I’ve Paul Townend on one side of me and Jack Kennedy on the other. I’m thinking I’m not supposed to be here, but I try and blend in!. He works very well. We have got a couple of graded horses at home and he’s able to easily put them in their place carrying my brother Jack who is 13 or 14 stone. I didn’t mind not having a hurdle in the straight as I thought he was better than most of these in bumpers and if he was there turning in, he would gallop to the line. I saw Paddy Mullins coming and thought ‘ah no not you’ as he’s beaten me so many times in bumpers! That’s unbelievable, I can’t believe it!
