After race at Punchestown Sun, 18th Nov, 2018 (1st)

He promised so much as a young horse and it's great to see it coming to fruition. The ground is a big factor for him. He's young enough and this is his game. He’s a great jumper. I think Punchestown might suit him better than Cheltenham because he loves jumping the banks.
