Speaking by phone, O'Grady said: “I have been trying to win this race for thirty years. I have had a lot of placed and unlucky horses and had virtually given up.

“I have never missed the race and then go and win it when I'm absent. He will run again on Saturday in the two miles and five Dawn Milk Handicap Hurdle.”
