It was nice for him to get his head in front, going up to three miles and Robert said he wanted every bit of it. He'll have an entry in the 2m5f novice handicap and also the three mile Grade 1, both at Punchestown. Robert said he is a proper English National horse in the making for next year and said he loves that nicer ground. We'll campaign him differently next year, have him ready for the autumn, keep off the ground and have him for a spring campaign. For a big horse, he had us confused and we were doing the wrong thing for a little while but we'll get there some day! Today he was jumping like he did in Down Royal (in October).
