After race at Cheltenham Wed, 13th Mar, 2019 (1st) 
I’ve always thought he is a very smart horse, he has not been the easiest to train but on his day he is good. I didn’t say much to Harry on how to ride him, but just take your time whatever you do, and he gave him an absolute brilliant ride. He is nearly 18 hands and is just massive. I didn’t want to go to the Reynoldstown with him and give him a hard race. I just had to get the balance right. We’ve always believed he is a serious horse. Today was the only day we have trained him for and next year it will be the Gold Cup. With Clan (Des Obeaux) and the other young horses we’ve got it is exciting to have them, but Rome wasn’t built in a day and you have just got to let them develop. He is not unlike Denman and God willing he will stay sound he will be in the Gold Cup. Paul (Barber) is excited as he has him and Clan Des Obeaux.
