He’s improving. Funnily Paul thought the nicer ground suited him and Ruby thought the soft ground was too soft for Clondaw Warrior,. He jumped fantastic. He got a good lead early in the race and made sure it was a good pace which is what he wants. The race was run to suit him. I’d imagine the Stayers Hurdle would be his owners preferred option. He couldn’t do anymore than win here. We’ll have a look but I’d imagine that’s what the plans will be. I’m disappointed with Clondaw Warrior as I think he’s better than that and I think better ground will suit him better as well. Looking at his legs he had muck right up to his fetlocks. I’d say he was digging into it and it wasn’t suiting him. I’d say it’ll be Cheltenham with him. I don’t think he’ll be going to Dubai. I think he’ll improve from that. Even though he’s had all those runs he looks big. He’s a horse that does himself very well and eats like a horse. W P Mullins, trainer
