After race at Navan Sat, 18th Dec, 2010 (1st) 
the horse which beat him the last day (Oscars Well at Punchestown) is highly regarded so we were hoping he could pick up a maiden hurdle. he should make a nice chaser in time and he is more of staying type than a two miler.

I only discovered at one o'clock we were getting in as he was second reserve and the box had already gone with my other runners so Martin Brassil very kindly brought him for us.
