After race at Cheltenham Thu, 15th Mar, 2018 (1st) 
Bacardys has schooled very well over hurdles since falling over fences in Leopardstown over Christmas. His work has been very good. The trip is a bit of an unknown, but I think his style of racing will help him. Penhill obviously hasn't run since winning the Albert Bartlett at last year's Festival, but we've been very happy with him at home and although he's a second-season novice, he's actually got a lot of experience, having had nine runs last season. The two mares need to show improvement in order to win, but they both stay very well and we're hoping they'll pick up a bit of prize-money.

He was looking good all the way and two out we were expecting him to win, his hurdling was a lot better than it has been and he's got the pace. Racing over three miles has been the making of him, as it gives him more time for his jumping. I haven't had many Cheltenham runners, so it is very exciting. I've brought a lot of friends and they're all on at 16 and 20-1. It's not a race that has been lucky for us. It's been a great day for Paul with two winners. Penhill has class. We were trying to win with him over two miles, but he just couldn't handle the pace of top-class races over two miles. We put him up to three and he did it easily at Christmas, then we said we would go for this race. He will go to Punchestown now and he is a horse that could go back on the Flat. He could be a Melbourne Cup horse. Maybe he won't be good enough when we go back and try the Flat but we will see. He has got a typical profile for the horses we manage going back to the Flat. They are just going two or three miles an hour slower over three and it just gives his brain time to work and get him in the right order jumping.

It was a masterclass in schooling and riding. He didn't jump the first two or three, and Ruby said he'd concentrate on getting him jumping after that,. I stopped watching him as I thought he'd no chance and was looking at Master Of Verse, who was given a fine ride by Bryan to challenge at the last. I couldn't believe it when I saw Ruby coming up on the rail. It was a spectacular ride as he didn't enjoy the hurdles.
