The last day at Ascot was a bit of a shock to his system. He was better today and I probably got to the front too soon but around here I needed to ride him a bit more positive as he gets the trip well. When he gets fast ground and a straight track I don't know how high he can go. He is entitled to go back into group company now and he'd handle hard ground. It was grand safe ground today but anything worse than good to firm he wouldn't really like it.

He is not short of pace but he gets a mile well. He came to us with a massive reputation. He has got great cruising speed and he was doing good times in America. When he won his maiden in America, Todd Pletcher (his former trainer) was jumping around the place and it was obvious to see why he was. We were very lucky to get him. He only won a conditions race a few weeks ago and he is still a big baby. He has got options and he could go to Deauville now.

he has been an exciting horse and is still only a three year old. He's still quite green, that was his first run on grass and it was his first time on a track like this. He hasn't done much at home and has only been on grass twice since we've had him, so they're probably the only times he's been on grass. He hasn't run in nearly a year and got hurt on his second run in America before having a break. He's a lovely horse and is in races like the Sussex Stakes.
