She's so hardy. She came into the race in brilliant form and she settled today, we put a different bit in her. We were caught off guard at Down Royal when she got lit up. The winner was a fair winner but she didn't help herself. They went a much stronger pace today and Kieren was very good, he didn't panic. If you have them on their head and try to go early doors you have no chance. You just know she's going to give it everything. He reckons he was going to win irrespective of the horse falling but I'd have to watch it back. She wants to win and that's the bottom line with her. She really had to try hard today. Last time was her first handicap and I'd say she actually learned more at Down Royal than in any of her other runs and it stood to her today. She's going to need a break at some point, when the ground goes, but we'll make hay while the sun shines. She has an unbelievable pedigree. Valerie and her daughter Diana bred her and to have had three generations, Woodland Opera is her uncle and then Opera Hat is her grand-dam. They are going to put her up a bit for this and she's earned a go at black-type now. She can't have any soft in the ground. There is the option of travelling to the UK as well and I think there might be a race in Bangor. Mrs Lorna Fowler, trainer
