After race at Curragh Sun, 26th Jul, 2020 (1st)

He's done it nicely and he's after stepping up from his run in Navan (when second). He did it all wrong in Navan and is very immature. He was fly-leaping and leaning off the rail but in fairness to him he had to do it the hard way there. That has stood to him today and he appreciated that ground. We've always liked him and when the penny drops mentally he will be a nice horse. We've always thought he was a stakes horse and being by Kingman you don't know how high he can go. He's done what we thought he should have done a bit earlier. We'll give him plenty of time and he'll be a nice horse.
