I thought I gave her too much time between Christmas and Cheltenham last year. There is no other race she'd could run in here, not unless she went for a novice chase and we weren't going to do that!. A lot of credit has to go to Michael O'Leary and Gigginstown for running the mare here today because it was a big ask for her to come back to two miles. These are the type of horses you want at these festivals. There was no other race to suit her and they were ballsy enough to bring her back and run her over two miles. It was great. Whatever happens now we can enjoy the weekend as you put yourself under so much pressure coming here. To have two Grade 1s here it doesn't matter what happens the rest of the weekend.

I could see on the big screen I was fairly well clear of what was in behind me. She's unreal, she is a pleasure to be riding. She was in good form this time last year and then lost her way so hopefully she can keep continuing this way anyway. Jack said she was brilliant today and foot perfect everywhere. He gave her a kick at the second last and she picked up changed gears and was gone again. He said she was actually gone a bit idle in front but it’s a good complaint to have and we’re lucky to have her. It was unfortunate to see Faugheen falling and we don’t know what would have happened but it probably would have taken a fair one to go past her. She’ll be entered in everything. She might come back here over two miles (in the BHP Insurance Irish Champion Hurdle). In Cheltenham she will probably go for the race I think she can win and that might be the Mares Hurdle. She likes running and I think I gave her too much time between her last run and Cheltenham last year. I’ll have to talk to Michael and Eddie (O'Leary) but I wouldn’t mind bringing her back here over two miles. She goes a bit right going to a hurdle but jumps it straight. She’s done that for the last two seasons but it doesn’t stop her.

You are always nervous when you’ve got something like her running, and when she went down and jumped the last it was a big relief,.

She was good there today and we're delighted. She had to do the donkey work and she'll even come on a little bit from the run but we're delighted, it was a great run. We'll go to Fairyhouse now for the Hatton's Grace. I was very happy and she was a different mare than she was on her last two runs. It was nice to get her back on track. She showed a lot of her old spark. If you look at her before and after the race she's a different mare. She was dead as a maggot when she was in season but she's like a bull going around there today. Jack said she jumped a little bit right but she always does that. With a bit of company she'll be better but we had to make the running because we didn't want it to turn into a sprint.

Davy said if he rode her again he would have got her into a battle earlier. She just loves a battle and won by half a length at the end. The Mares race at Cheltenham is the plan. She’s just five years old and has now won seven Grade 1’s. She has to be out in front every day on the gallops.

She’s a very good mare and that was a great performance. I doubt if she will jump fences next year and the Mares Hurdle or the Stayers are possible targets for her. I was heart-broken leaving here last night but that equals Willie’s record of 193 winners in a season. I said coming here that if I could equal that it would be something. Of course I wanted to win (the trainers championship) but at least that is something good.

I met three or four people coming in racing today and they were maybe slating me for running her. I'm in a lucky position to be training for the lads (Gigginstown House Stud) and they left it up to me,. I weighed her this morning and she was actually heavier than she was going to Newcastle last week so I said we'll let her take her chance and I'm delighted it worked out. I was under no pressure but it's great when it works out. I had a good chat with (journalist) Ryan McElligott last night and he said 'if it worked it worked and if it didn't it didn't.' We took the chance and it's great. We were learning a bit about her to be honest. To run in the Fighting Fifth last week and coming back here this week is a testament to how good a mare she is. The mares hurdle in Cheltenham will be her Gold Cup. There are a couple of races at the start of February for her. She won't go to Christmas. She'll have one run before Cheltenham all being well. Saying that she might run next week!
