Create Belief a sweet winner for the Murtaghs at Gowran
I'm delighted with her. She ran well here last year and I went home happy then. She's after strengthening up and doing well over the winter. I think I've something to look forward to over the summer. I spoke to Johnny there and he just said he'd have a look at what there is for her now, we just wanted to win her maiden. She stayed that trip well and Ben said she was good so I'm happy.

It was a nice opportunity for him and he took it. We'll be looking at all those staying races with him and we'll see where he fits in. Ascot could be a plan. His owner spends a lot of time in Australia and the Melbourne Cup is always a plan in the back of our minds but we were disappointed how badly he ran there last year. We'll look for staying races wherever we can get them, be it America or England, and try and find what opportunities we can for him.
