Vautour failed a late fitness test so I popped this fellow in. Hopefully he'll (Vautour) run later in the week though. This fellow likes going on at his hurdles and I was happy enough that he could take Vautour's place. Vautour will have no problem going two and a half anyway. That was very good on fast ground considering he was running on heavy all winter. It was a fair performance against those sort of horses. We'll have to consider staying hurdling next season. We bought him as a chaser but it's no harm having another good hurdler. Certainly on that performance you'd have to be thinking about all that (a Champion Hurdle campaign). We'll have to evaluate what else is in the yard and what else the owner has but he certainly could be one to keep hurdling. I think this trip is good enough for him. The only reason he didn't run at two miles all winter is because we had enough two mile horses and we knew he would stay. If you said to me that he'd put up a performance like that I'd have said it would be tough be he did it well. I think Vautour would have done that and better though. This fellow was sloppy at one or two of them but Vautour wouldn't have done that . he'd have been over them and gone.
