I didn't want to go looking for a big one at the third last, I knew I had plenty left. She was quick to fiddle away. Funny, she usually goes right but maybe she was jumping out to Elimay a little bit today. She picked up well going to the second last and it was a fair performance. She did everything right (in Cheltenham), got the split and I had a little look at the last that day and maybe it was the winning and losing but she was 25/1 that day and it was a cracking run. I'm delighted to ride a winner in these colours (Gigginstown House Stud) again. They have been very good to me and it is great to be here. She ran really well in Cheltenham where she missed the last two fences and was still close to Elimay. We weren’t sure we’d beat her today but thought we’d give her a good run for her money. Bryan gave our filly a great positive ride today. She jumped brilliant apart from the third last. I was delighted with that. I suppose winning a Grade 1 would be the main objective next season. She’s a Grade 2 winner and a big mare so there is no reason why she can’t be even better next year. Joseph Patrick O'Brien, trainer
