"Faugheen is back in full training, though we actually had him doing fast work before we threw him out in the field, after he was not ready for Punchestown. We kept him in the whole month of May."
Asked if we retained faith in Faugheen, he said: "Of course. Since we decided to let him off, he has come back in with a lot of condition. The Morgiana Hurdle at Punchestown in November would be the aim. He is fit and well, he was unlucky last year."

"Yorkhill is back riding out every day in good form, though we haven't made a decision on what we will do at this stage - we could go both ways. He is very difficult over fences and finds hurdling a lot easier.

"Melon has come back very strong, is in good form and, while he could go the novice chase route, we'd probably be angling towards a hurdling campaign. He was very inexperienced going to Cheltenham last year."
