After race at Leopardstown Thu, 26th Dec, 2013 (1st) 
It is great to have no excuses. We decided to bounce out with him and if they went with us they went with us, and if they didn't they didn't. The ground was beautiful, but it was a little bit better than we would have wanted it. I was worried that he was going to be one of those horses that was talked up but never delivered, but now he has a Grade 1 win to his name and I'm delighted. We will see how he is in the morning as he is a horse that hits the ground hard. He has a great cruising gear, and while I would prefer to try and settle him, there is no point if it's not working. Champagne Fever made a bad mistake at a crucial stage, and we just kicked on from there and won the race.

Defy Logic is keen but isn't silly and the hood helps to keep him relaxed. We've been using them on a few of our horses latesy . Alan said he couldn't pull him up afterwards! . Relief is the word more than anything though as he is a horse we've been doing plenty of talking about for a while. We're really looking forward to him going jumping and he jumps fences as much as hurdles at home. We'll have to talk to Frank (Berry, winning jockey's father and winning owner J.P. McManus' Racing Manager) but I'd imagine he'd go to Leopardstown at Christmas for a maiden hurdle. That should bring him on plenty.
