I'm delighted he won and to be honest I was disappointed with his last two runs. It's great for him to be back winning. He will be entered for the weekend at Down Royal and if the ground is quick and he comes out of this okay he might go up there for the second season novice. More than likely he'd be finished up for the season after that. He is after winning ten races for us now so he is doing a right job. If the ground is quick, and he is okay, Down Royal is where we are going to go. It's been dry for so long that when it starts raining it probably won't stop. It's great for his owners. It's a pity Mine Now got a fall but he got up. He is in great form the whole time. We changed tactics a bit too much on his last few runs, we were riding him a bit handier with the blinkers on him. That was probably the wrong thing to do because he has to be switched off out the back, and that's what we done with him today. He was well entitled to win today with his mark. Dropping him in and getting him switched off is the way to ride him. Hopefully it'll stay dry until the weekend at Down Royal. Peter Fahey, trainer
