Ruby was maybe a bit bold there but he had to do what he had to do,. It was good and the horse responded. He jumped brilliant and I was very pleased with that. I don't mind going back to two at all, he pulled very hard in behind there today, and he has the speed for two. He'll probably go back in trip for Christmas but we'll see what we have in his division. We have Un De Sceaux there and Great Field so we could try and keep this fellow at a longer trip and try and find races for him. It didn't look like he was stopping today but it was a very slow run race, I thought, and he was very keen in behind but I liked the way he jumped even though he was keen. I'm not looking to go out to three miles with him to be honest . W P Mullins, trainer
