After race at Down Royal Sat, 20th Jun, 2015 (1st)
I wasn't sure that the pace was going to suit him. They went very slow early and I was hoping for a better gallop. It was only really the last 100 yards that he got going. He is a huge, long striding horse and I was just afraid when they quickened they would take him off his feet which they did actually and it was only in the last 100 yards he got going. I've always had great faith in this horse but he let me down quite badly on his couple of runs as a two-year-old, I was scratching my head a little bit. Anyway he has grown up and matured and obviously he is different horse this year. This is the first time I've won the race. I wasn't sure he was streetwise enough but it panned out well. We bred him and we have a yearling brother. He'll make into a real nice stayer. I was looking at the Queen's Vase last night and wondering did I do the right thing but I did.
