Bit of a fright at the third-last, but he lengthened well down the straight for me again. We got it right today and he showed the true horse. He's maturing away as well. I'd imagine so (go chasing next season). Like you saw at the third-last, he had a little guess at it. I think when he does get a bigger obstacle in front of him, his jumping will come into its own then. I’ve always thought the world of him, he has huge ability and I’m looking forward to him going over fences next year. Paul thinks that he doesn’t have much respect for hurdles and he could always do that type of thing even schooling at home. He thinks he’ll have far more respect for fences. I said to Paul to be very positive on him because he has a huge, long stride. He gallops and is able to quicken off that. His pedigree would suggest he can go out to three miles any day of the week and I know he has enough pace to go two miles so we will let the horse tell us as he learns the game in the autumn.
