After race at Gowran Park Thu, 24th Jan, 2019 (1st) 
Invitation Only has the right sort of profile for the race in that he’s a second-season novice and hopefully open to improvement. He has plenty of weight (11st 6lb) and off a mark of 152 it’s not going to be easy, but hopefully he has a good chance. Some Neck won his beginners’ chase here and Richie Deegan takes 5lb off his back. Richie is very good value for his claim and won a Grade One for us in last season’s Punchestown Champion Bumper. The worry with Some Neck is he can race a bit lazily, so I just hope he doesn’t end up too far back.

He was very impressive and jumped great. He might be back to what we thought he could have been two years ago. His jumping is his forte. He could go three miles, whether that will be Christmas or later, we'll have to see if Christmas comes too soon.

He's another point-to-point horse and he seems to improve as the season goes on. He's done that for the last two years. I'd say drier ground suits him but it will be good to get him going and hopefully he can get off to a good start.

that was a good jumping performance, and we'll look for a novice now around Christmas. He’ll have no problem going up in trip and we think he stays all day, and I was also delighted to see him show that turn of foot.

he looks a decent sort - he's a stayer and will go novice hurdling next year.

He's done a lot of good work at home. He's a galloper and it's a pity we didn't have him ready in time for Cheltenham. I'd imagine he'll go to Punchestown for a winners' race. He's a staying chaser for the future.
