The price looks an insult now but I suppose he just fell in, in an auction maiden at Navan getting all the allowances,. Fair play to the owners, he was a horse that we liked. He ran early on in Naas and he's obviously made improvement as he's gone along. Certainly he's made a huge step forward. I would have been delighted with a place. He travelled through the race quite well and he's a horse that had shown us at home that he wants seven and they needed to stay today as it's slow ground. He got to the line well and galloped through it. At Naas he was in the gates quite a bit, was slowly away and maybe didn't handle the ridges. He took a lot from it and gained a bit of experience. Then he went on to Navan, on soft ground, and a furlong out you'd say he would be fourth but he hit the line very well there. To be honest I didn't see a win coming today and would have been delighted with a good run. He's obviously come forward well again. He's entitled to run in all the good races now, he's well entered up. He's in the Phoenix and the National Stakes. The Railway is always a very strong race so he'll take his chance in those races.
