I thought the horse in the third (Ashjan - second) would win, and was hoping the lad in the first (Atlantic Breaker - third) would win. You can't beat luck though!. I was afraid of nothing but the horse that fell at the second last (Eddies Miracle). I thought we could beat everything bar David Christie's horse realistically now. She's a 95,000 pound three-year-old who has won a point-to-point and a chase on the track. She's a valuable commodity now. She was bought as a broodmare, that was the original plan to see if we could do something on the track to enhance her value.
