It has simply been the most unbelievable week for me

It has been the most unbelievable week for Willie Mullins and I. It’s not very often so little goes wrong and so much goes right, so we have to make the most of it when it happens like this. If you had offered me this before the Festival had started, I would have taken your hand off.

We didn’t get the perfect finish to the week, but I couldn’t fault Djakadam’s effort in the Gold Cup as he jumped well, travelled well, ran as good a race as he did last year - but just found one too good again.

Don Cossack was a very good winner on the day and congratulations to Gordon, Bryan and the O’Learys. It was a brilliant call by Bryan to ride him.
