We thought he was a Group horse in a handicap but they have to deliver. He’s been very straightforward since we got him and has gradually moved up the ranks. It never really looked in doubt. He’s a very progressive horse and hopefully he turns into a Group horse. He’s in the Ayr Gold Cup next week. It’s not our style to return (that quick). David (Spratt, part owner) and I will sit down and make a plan.

My initial reaction was that we got it but then when I looked at it again I thought they had nabbed us,. He's been showing plenty and I thought he'd want anywhere from six to seven. I thought that whoever beats him would win today. He's only been on the all-weather for us so I didn't know about ground but he's very very straight-forward at home and I thought that this was a good start for his career. We'll have to see where we go now and if he progresses. His work at home is very behind the bridle and I thought he ran very keen today — it nearly cost him. Credit to Gaelic Bloodstock as they just keep finding these horses. How I don't know but as long as they keep doing it.
