I knew Aidan would have his horse (Idaho) in tremendous order and that he'd be better than Epsom so I knew we'd have to be at our very best and also better than at Epsom to win. It was a magnificent race and he showed speed today. People said he didn't have the speed but he showed it today and the two horses picked up and quickened. The first two improved considerably from Epsom. They just didn't quicken once, they quickened twice. Idaho is a high class horse and it was a proper horse race. It was a great ride from Pat and we saw two jockeys at the top of their profession ride brilliant races. It was horse racing at its best. I was concerned because he had a very hard race at Epsom. We always knew he was very tough but he had to be 110 percent today. I'll give him a well-deserved break now and train him for the Arc. This is a very, very special race and I've been enjoying it since I was a child. I've been fortunate enough to win it three times now (Zagreb in 1996 and Grey Swallow in 2004).
