Thanksforthehelp strikes for race sponsor McManus

On his day he's a decent horse. He probably could have done with the ground being a bit softer but Gavin Brouder gave him a great ride and he battled strongly, and was very brave today,. We thought he had a decent each-way chance. We had two in the race and the other one finished sixth (American Sniper), he ran well. It's lovely to get a winner for JP. We've had some nice winners here in the past and it’s great to have another one.

Kaid D'authie prevails despite jumping frailties

I was happy enough going to the second last, he wouldn't be the quickest horse but he gallops all day. I could hear the lads coming to me into the straight. When we straightened up I just kept him balanced and he quickened on well to the end. We took all the gear off his head and put cheekpieces on instead. We put on an ordinary snaffle instead of a chifney as we thought less interference in his mount might help him jump better. I’m not sure that worked but at least he had a cut at his hurdles anyhow. He has no regard for them, we think he'll be a lot better over fences. He has a huge engine and he'll be suited by three miles. He's about 17 hands, which is a huge horse, and you wouldn’t want him standing on you anyway. He'll have far more respect for a fence.

Townend earns the plaudits as Jasmin just prevails

He just does it when he has to. He's not the world's best jumper. Paul asked him for a big one at the last, he gave it to him but he nearly tipped him out of the saddle. It was great jockeyship by Paul to stay in the saddle. It's a fantastic achievement to get that done, get the job done. He did what needed to be done. He's got a huge engine, maybe he'll jump fences better - I don't know. If you can just get him near the winning post, get him over his hurdles without losing too much ground he's able to make it up on the flat.
