It was a very good performance and I'm delighted for Patrick (Mullins) and Paul Byrne who bought the horse from England and he looks very well bought now. He didn't cost a million or anything like that. He had won in Ireland and in England and they're all the time looking for horses that could be bargains and this is another one. I'm delighted for Rachel and it's a fantastic prize to win and she got a really good tune out of the horse down the back. You could see from the stands, he was jumping out of her hands and she was just trying to keep out of trouble. She is a fantastic rider and is one of the hardest workers in the country; she rides out for me two or three days a week and then lots of other places and is always on the go and gets results. He disappointed over hurdles the last day but we came back a mile today. He might run at Cheltenham if he gets into one of the handicap chases. W P Mullins, trainer
