Quotes on Starford (IRE)
He won really well. He had a great run in Galway in a strong race and he had a nice freshen-up since. He handled the soft ground well and it’s a big advantage down there today. We could look at something like the Finale Stakes (at the Curragh on November 2nd) . He’s not EBF qualified so we have to mix and match where we go. He’s a smart horse and I’d say he’s going to end up in stakes company.
