He had been disappointing since we got him but has turned the corner now. He had been jumping really well at home but wasn't taking it to the track and had falls which affected his confidence. He has back to himself now and while we wouldn't normally run them back so quick, he came home well from Wexford so we took our chance. We were running him over two miles over hurdles all along and we didn't think he needed further, but it looks like we were running him over the wrong trip. He is handicapped over fences so has plenty options now.
