I felt sorry for Chris (Hayes, jockey of runner-up So Majestic) as I didn't know which horse to pick. I thought the quicker five furlongs and the faster ground would suit So Majestic more but both horses ran blinders. I didn't know which horse I wanted to win!. Kendall Roy was too lazy the last day but Declan (McDonogh) was on the ball today and had him tuned in. Even though he broke the track record over five furlongs at Windsor, I thought he might need stepping up to six as he is so lazy. Kendall Roy is a fat, gross horse and while I don't give him hardship at home, he wants loads of running, all the time. He is in at Goodwood next week so whether or not he'll run, I don't know. As gross as he is, he is a next year's horse. both horses came from breeze up sales and I ended up buying them back; So Majestic was the second-fastest in her sale and I had loved Kendall Roy since he was a yearling and his mind was always so good. My main game is the breeze-ups and I won't diverge from that, but I have another few two-year-olds which I am left with. That's the only reason I ever got out my trainers' license, it is a hobby and is bringing a lot of joy to our household at the minute. Miss Kate McGivern, trainer
