she was getting a bit of weight and was maybe entitled to win it but I thought it was a good performance. It was a fair call turning her out again so quick but the horses at home are in brilliant form so we'll stay going while they are going well. If she's okay she might go to Galway for the mares hurdles or a mile-and-a-half maiden on the Flat. If she doesn't go there, there is a nice programme for mares after that. We always thought she had loads of ability but last year I only had a handful of winners and a lot of horses were finishing placed. Thank god that's turned around and long may it continue!
