After race at Punchestown Tue, 23rd Apr, 2013 (1st)

I had him 101 percent for Cheltenham and then we slotted in Aintree after that so to do the three is very, very hard. Even if you think it's an easy race - being in this sort of theatre takes a lot out of them. It was harder for him today than in the past but it was more testing (softer) ground. Fair play to Sizing Europe - he ran a hell of a race. On good ground he's spectacular but you can't do it on this ground. It's special to come to Punchestown. We love coming here and we've been doing it for years. There was no point in staying at home and I hope everyone in Ireland enjoyed seeing him.

Nicky Henderson
