I've been threatening to put the blinds on her for a while. She's honest enough but does a lot of looking around,. I thought a couple of times over seven at Fairyhouse she had them well stuffed but she tied up a bit. I thought the stiff six here would suit but didn't expect her to do it like that. We could look at one of the better sprints towards the end of the year.

Colin gave her a peach of a ride. I was a bit afraid the mile my stretch her but he rode her well. He is a very level headed chap. She has had three quick runs so we will give her a break now of three weeks and we will probably go to Galway with her. She is a very tough filly and she is ground versatile with her win at Fairyhouse coming on yielding to soft.

Colin said she was just doing enough in front and it might now be time to put a set of blinkers on her. I don't think she's ungenuine but she watches everything and might just need some assistance. She was a real bargain and only cost 1,600Gns in Doncaster (last November, having won a maiden) and if we could get a few more like that, it would keep us ticking over! We'll tip away with her but I'd say six furlongs is probably far enough for her.
