the lads in the yard have been crying out trying to get Jim to go for the likes of the (Group 1) Prix de la Foret and now he probably deserves to as he has never been as sweet, but I don't know if he'll go or not. He is a proper proper tough horse. I don't think going right-handed over seven (furlongs) at the Curragh suited him the last day, behind Romanised, and the dead-straight seven suited today. Kevin got him so switched off today and on the straight track he got him out and it was all over in a matter of strides. His form was in the book and the boss has him sweet and Kevin has done a great job with him. Maybe he could run next at Champions Weekend at Leopardstown, where he loves. we were dying to get on the straight track here and Jim (Bolger) said it would suit our horses and he was bang-on and we've had two winners.

He has had an easy couple of years, so he has to go to work now and could run in the Minstrel Stakes (Curragh, July 20) next. He retains his enthusiasm, plus an extra bit and has really come right this year. He has had soundness issues and for the first five years of his career he was always on soft (ground), now he doesn’t seem to mind.

We always knew there was a big performance in this horse and there is probably better to come on days when everything goes right for him,. That's the first time he's run well on that good ground and maybe he's hardening up. I'd say he could go a mile and he's even run well over six.

Pat O'Donovan rides him out regularly and told me the other day that he could be a Group One horse if everything fell right for him. Everything fell right today and he's on his way. Maybe this is the start of the rest of his career.
