He had a snotty nose the day after his last run so I was able to draw a line through it. He worked very well last week and I knew he was back to himself,. I told Danny to be handy and use his stamina. I thought coming off the Flat that he was a doubtful stayer but now it looks like he’s a real tough stayer. He’s a good ground horse and we have a nice handicap mark on the Flat so if the ground does go against us we’ll be going to Dundalk with him.

After race at Bellewstown Sat, 4th Jul, 2020 (1st)
The last time he ran over two-and-a-half he got there too soon and on the heavy ground didn't get home. We were holding him up to get the two-and-a-half but obviously he gets it well on good ground. He's a lazy bugger at home but he was on his toes today so I thought he was going to be a bit keen and fresh. He had a little break and I think that's helped him freshen up. I think he's a horse that would run better fresh. He'll go on soft but he doesn't want heavy ground. He could also be a horse that could go to Dundalk or Wolverhampton as he has an attractive Flat mark. The way he stayed there I think two miles on the Flat would be perfect for him. He actually ran here on the Flat last year, and we really fancied him, but he got struck into turning for home and threw in the towel. I have him entered back here in the two miler next Wednesday and I was thinking coming near the line 'Danny go easy!' and save a bit. He didn't look to have a hard race there. I presume the handicapper is going to put him up a bit so we'll go again. Danny was over cutting timber for me recently and instead of paying him a few quid I said I'd give him the ride on something!
