All his form was on soft ground and I wouldn't have liked to run him on Wednesday on the rattling ground,. Lets Go Champ was second to him in Limerick and he won the equivalent race on Wednesday so the form was there in the book. He's been progressing away all season. He won his handicap in Galway and he got in off 131 which was a nice weight. His jumping was super and just kept taking him there without using any petrol. The first two pulled well clear. That will be his last run of the year. I want to give him a break as he's had five runs now. He's only seven and he could be a Munster National horse or one for the Paddy Power.

He’s had three or four runs in handicaps and was taking on horses coming out of maiden hurdles so I was pretty confident coming down that he had the experience under his belt. We left him out for the summer and he’s done well. He’s only a five-year-old and is after strengthening up. He jumped great apart from one he fiddled down the back. I’d say he’d have no bother jumping a fence in due course. I’d say he’ll end up being a three-mile horse and when he hit the hill he picked up and got going. He’s a nice one. There is a two-and-a-half-mile novice handicap hurdle in Leopardstown at Christmas and whether he runs between now and then I’m not sure. He’ll stay hurdling this season and if he keeps improving he might win a nice staying pot, maybe one of those three-mile races in Navan.
