I fancied him because I thought he was the class horse in the race,. He ran a cracker last week in the Group 2 (fourth in the Minstrel Stakes at the Curragh) and I knew he was going to improve from it. He ran well the other night when Cian got blocked in. I love when you drop these Group horses back into handicaps like that. He's proved that he's a very good horse. They were travelling so well, they were running away the two of them, and I said 'they're going to have to sprout wings to catch them'. I know the hill takes a lot of getting but they were going that well and I was praying that they were going to kick. We had four in the first six (Laugh A Minute sixth) and I can't believe it. I'm delighted for all the lads again, they've been very good to me. They are over for the week and don't know when they are going to go home now after this!. I felt sorry for Cian the other day because he was to ride Sirjack Thomas but when he was reserve I put him on Current Option. We were going to change but I said no because I thought this horse would win and I'm delighted for Cian that he's got another premier handicap. He's a very good kid and he's a very good lad to ride. He gave him a smashing ride. Of course we got a big scare up the hill with the loose horse but it worked out great. We'll probably go to the Listed race next week in Cork because he won't carry a penalty. We did it last year so if all goes well we'll do it again and then give him a break.
