She’s improved from last year. I didn’t know if she wanted six or seven (furlongs) but six looked fine there. She was only just touched off in the Birdcatcher on soft ground, so she handles that ground well.

I'd like to thank Frank (Berry) and JP and Noreen (McManus) for giving her to us. We leased her out last year. She's been a bit unlucky and we had a bit of stalls work to do with her. Chris rode her yesterday morning and she jumped out well. We thought she'd run well if she jumped and she did, and the step up to seven really helped her I'd say. Chris gave her a great ride, she jumped well and relaxed well. He said at halfway he thought he was going to run well and she stuck it out well so we're delighted. We're going to enjoy today and there will be a lot of celebrations. This weekend means a lot to the town and the lads are all local. To have a winner here on Derby weekend is unbelievable.
