He jumped well and he likes to be up with the pace. When he woke him up he was very good at the last,. It was a hard decision whether to run him or not, so close after the Paddy Power. He lost no weight there though and he was very fresh the morning after. When I saw there was only a few declared I decided to let him take his chance.

I've always thought he would win a bumper but the saddle slipped out over his backside at Cork the last day and I thought he would win there.He is a lazy horse at home and I thought the blinkers would sharpen him up but he won't wear them over hurdles.He will go hurdling now and he is fitter than ever. Robbie said that he is a fair horse and he couldn't pull him up. He will go for a three mile maiden hurdle at Killarney now. He wants the ground a bit better than it was today.His owners, Jim and Mary Devine are very good owners. They are from Kilrush but living in London. Jim is a businessman and he hasn't had a winner since Deejaydee won at Cheltenham (won the National Hunt Chase at the Festival in 1999). The winner was bought for just €1,000 as a yearling at Tattersalls Ireland November Flat Sale in 2009 before making €13,000 as a three-year-old at the Goffs June National Hunt Sale in 2011.
