It looks a competitive race. But at his best he is in with a big chance. He likes Cheltenham and I wouldn't rule him out.

It's a shame we lost the race at Windsor last week as that looked ideal for him. With due respect to all the other horses in the race, there is a few of the top horses not there.

He is still a bit of a baby. He'll get an entry for Cheltenham but not against Denman.

He's just got in there. He finished third up at Perth at the end of a long season on his last start and he might just need this.

He came back in training in July but the more we did with him, the more he started to get sore.

It is the wrong track for him.

There'll be a real buzz of excitement at the conference which I'm sure will be both informative and lots of fun.

Christian Williams will probably be on the ones at Sandown now - and he is an able deputy.
